WEST END PROGRESS! Been workin' on the railroad. Benchwork is almost complete with two more sections to go.

Uprights are 2x2's held to the block wall with Tapcon screws 55in high; arms are 1x4x31.5 at 40in high; and cantilevers are 2x2's. Base is 1/2in exterior ply ( one side sanded) at 30 in wide from wall and 4ft long joining at centers of uprights.

Had to do some shims at outside of arms as block wall is not even/level - - no problema! Base is level; there will be a dropped section on the left front near the bridge that connects East and West where a rail ferry will have a dock. That calls for some serious measure 3x and cut once "cogitation" before completion.

Now delayed one month before first train arrival.
