Well I made the deadline! Just before midnight tonight I finished off the last bit - the fitting of the bolts for the height adjustment. The rest of it is done too, at least, it is done as much as it is getting done until I try it out on the track sometime later today.

This shot is the back 'wall' after touching up, removing the little platform level at the front, 'grassing' it and touching up the waterfall.

This is the board before the wall was glued on, then the buildings and other things glued on. The trains and vehicles are already glued on. The 2 platforms wont be permanently fixed until I am certain that they wont be obstructing any locos or rollingstock. The KATO loading gauge says all is well, but once it is on the track I will find out for sure what the real world situation is.

This is an overhead view of the finished module. Note the extra bits that you might find around a Maintenance of Way Depot. The stacks of rails and sleepers. The tracks and points stored in case they might be needed again.

A different view of the module. Note that the back scene has been made a tourist site, and there are fences and warning signs pointing out the dangers inherent in tackling such a climb to lookout over the waterfall and surrounding district. Needs some trees but I amĀ  not confident of making them at this stage.
