Playing catch up.

OK then, here has been much silence on this blog since I began this latest APA project. Basically because I have too many blogs. Blogs on RMWeb, blogs here, then there's my "Ian Holmes and his model foam" on Facebook. Posting to all is a pain in the arse. So some things fell by the wayside. This being one. But as things are getting close to the exhibition deadline for this layout I figured an update was due. 

Let's be honest there's nothing special in the construction or any of the methods used. The structures are my usual foam core shells clad with Scalescenes downloaded paper. The backscene is a product I discovered by accident in my local hobby shop from an outfit called ScenicKing. It fits perfectly inside the APA box.

The big "selling point" of this layout is that I consider the structures to be anonymous enough to enable the layout to be operated with both UK and US outline stock. The pictures seem to bear this idea out.

The exhibition deadline for this layout is the Granite City Train Show at the National Guard Armory, St. Cloud, MN. On November 16th between 10am and 3pm. See you there!
