I have begun work on a background building to cover an 18-inch length of white wall behind the tracks and between the hotel and truss bridge shown in the first photo. The distance from the track ties to the rear edge of table is only 2-1/2 inches, so the building will have to be narrow. I’m not sure how it will look and am designing the structure as I build. This space is the only unfinished surface on the layout – about which an article appeared in OGR Run 304.
First step was to select windows and doors for the “front” wall and mark locations on the inside of the milled clapboard basswood (two photos).
