Phase 1 of Project Eskalon may be coming to an end, i now have evaluated running my train on its test track and have decided on which couplings to use as well as useful information on clearances when i built my final permanent layout.
That will be phase 2 and can start soon, first step will be to build the baseboard of course. I am not blessed with the best carpentry skills but my planned board should be within even my range. It will have a simple frame as well as a retaining wall along 3 sides. This will be for the use of scenic wallpapers later on but will also allow me to lay a cover over the layout to protect it when not in use. Time to get some wood soon...
