These are basically pics of where the layout is now, as I test and retest things to ensure everything is working electrically and mechanically; since, once the catenary is in place, I don't want to be fiddling around with scenery tweaks, or putting derailed trains back on track, what ith catenary wires everywhere.
By far, I'm most excited about the way the water effect came out.
The platform turned out not to be completely level, front to back. So the water effect poured deeper toward the front border of the layout, giving the water a mirkier hue and more depth, which I love.
The ExactRail C&O deck girder is so well detailed. It's definitely one of my favorite views on the layout. And in this pics you can see, I'm slowly working animation into the layout, with lights and grade crossing gates...
