Module 1, Part 2

The basic construction of the module is now complete.  All that's left to do is sand down the edges and make sure the end plates are as square as possible.

The next step will be to lay track, wire the track, and build scenery around it.  Here are a couple of photographs of my progress:

The sides are 1/8" hardboard, making a smooth fascia.  I'm cutting the fascia first and will then use that as a foam cutting guide for the terrain.  Already I had to make an accuracy compromise.  Since the modules are meant to be operated from the South side (these views are from the Northwest side) I had to cut the hill down slightly so the view of the trains aren't completely blocked.

Thanks!
