Tragreany /Trá na Gréine

[Niles]

Very, very much a work in progress between other things. Idea is a small branch terminus, the mainstay of which will be Bo-Bos and short carriage rakes when in Irish mode: Tragreany /Trá na Gréine. (And yes the ballast is to be refined )

When in English mode the nominal name is Sonstrand. The bay platform running at an angle to the 'main' is very much a Tralee-inspired feature.

Idea is a runaround passenger terminus with bay, and a few sidings for freight/loco stabling.

Bit of progress installing the inspection pits after work this evening. The messy black is just a base coat over which dirt and grime will be layered so excuse the roughness.

Some magnesite wagons recently arrived for storage

A bit under weather this weekend so stayed in, used the opportunity to experiment with a polystyrene platform base. To be continued...

Cracking set-up, @Niles! Under the weather? Hungover or vitamin D deficiency?

Trust me if I was hungover I wouldn't be cutting polystyrene on a Sunday morning

I always thought that 3d printing technology would be the job for making custom size platforms.
