It's been quite a while since I posted anything but I am happy to report that there has been progress. Not so much on the railroad but on the space that will eventually house the layout. My previous photos only showed bare studs against the wall, but now the room has walls. Finally! The perimeter foundation walls are up along with a sufficient about of insulation to keep the chilly New England air out of the basement. What a difference that makes. I'm glad that the layout wasn't too far along before I decided to complete the room. The portion that I had previously begun, had to be moved away from the walls during construction, so I devised a series of casters attached to horizontal cross braces at the legs of the layout and moved the entire 24-ft yard away from the work area. Drywall taping has started, but before any sanding occurs the layout will be covered to protect it from dust. New electrical outlets were added as part of the renovation. Once the walls are complete it's on to the ceiling and lighting.
