More construction - Change of plan..!!

Okay, one complete corner of the shed now has baseboards or supporting framework in place, the construction method of using 90 degree angle brackets is really speeding things up and making for a very strong baseboard.

Although i started with a plan in mind as the frame took shape, i suddenly had a bit of an inspiration about the layout and thought "..hang on - what if the station moved to the other corner and i did away with the viaduct??" ...well, i must add that the idea of the viaduct had made it through several previous layout plans, but it had always posed a problem when it came to getting the tracks to fit into the allowed space and sorting out how all the tracks would meet up and how the trains would use them. The solution it would seem is to remove my beloved viaduct from the plan, thus taking out the need for ramps and solving the tying-up issues too!

So a new plan was drawn up and can be seen below. This will be the FINAL plan, I'm not messing about anymore, the layout will stick pretty much to this now, although during track laying there might be a few alterations as does happen occasionally to fit things in.
