I've been quite busy working on the Mountain Division of the Free State Junction Railway since my last post.
I build the country road that partially runs along the base of Mt. Randolph. I did this buy cutting a roofing shingle into strips of roadway ( cost was $2.00 and I still have half the shingle left ). I laid the roadway in place and sealed any exposed joints using fine black or fine brown ballast. Works great and looks great. See pics.
I planted a garden alongside the Mtn Div. mainline. I used Woodland scenics garden veggies and some sunflowers that I bought at Niagra Hobbies in Buffalo. Also have a bird house as well. I don't have a specific pic of the garden but you can see it alongside a freight train in one the accompanying photos included in this post.
I made a dirt road leading into a farm where Henry has parked his truck. See photo.
I used Bachman gravel, some Woodland Scenics brown turf and the road was complete.
Of course I put down some Elmers glue first and sprinkled the above mentioned stuff on top.
I used a Plasticville cabin for a corner. Place some lumber jacks near the cabin. See photos.
I put up a photo backdrop behind the cabin.
Sceniced along the shingle country roadway using lichen and trees.
Created various scenes at the end of the spur coming off the MTN DIV mainline.
Fixed an electrical connection to the spur. Now I have an operating remote control track section and the lights in the caboose operate 
Here are some ( actually alot of photos ) of the Mountain Division. Hope you like them.
