Retaining wall photos

Here are some photos of the retaining wall mentioned in the last couple of posts.

Retaining wall along the backboard. I will add some more painted trees and scenery I think to break the sky-wall boundary.

Further down towards the road which will give the impression of going up the behind the wall. The paper plans show where the terrace houses and shops will more than likely go.

Close up of the wall. Not bad in my opinion.

Through the week not much happened apart from glueing down some of the Terrace Houses plans to thick (2mm) cardboard. I was intending to do the Medium and Light card plans as well but didn't have enough 1mm and 0.5mm in stock, so I had to wait for the weekend to buy some more. So hopefully this week I can get around to this but time will tell as I have a few other things to attend to.

One thing I failed to do and Lachlan reminded me was that the previous weekend his Alaska Railway diesel started to have running troubles. I was going to look at this but forgot. So another maybe!

Talking about Lachlan, I have taken a couple of photos of his recent addition to his layout so go on over to Beaver Springs. The other thing I did through the week was to order a Hornby Railway Train Pack (steam loco, open wagon, closed wagon and brake van) that he wanted for his birthday. So hopefully this will arrive before his birthday in early April.

Thats all from me this week.
