NTS&B Fall Vertical Scenery Started

According to my son, I have been remiss in keeping this blog up to date.  I am only about 7 months behind.  Therefore, I am going to back date entries in an attempt to catch up, but it may take a couple months.  I've actually been busy working on the railroad, and not keeping up the documentation.

I finally starting vertical walls in the fall area.  Its been 2 months since last progress.  This long wall was made by hot gluing pieces of Styrofoam together on to a 1 piece bottom and back. The front retaining wall was made using a hot knife to score the indentations to represent concrete blocks, and hot glued to the risers. The following pictures show some of the process.   

 Basic wall insert structure.

 Block wall panels added.
