The first train across the new bridge to East Lewiston. |
UP GP9 and wooden NP bay window caboose - must be the Camas Prairie! |
|
Another shot from the East end. Next project is to add the yard and bridge. |
Here you can see the turnout switches. One has a key hanging from it. |
Here's the overall shot of the family room. I've got some tidying up to do. |
|
Many of the buildings are placed temerarily or are cheap buildings bought assembled for the mean time. |
Same shot, a little to the left. |
The freight house and the Mark Means elevator here. Later I'll ad a steel building for the Erb Cable Warehouse and replace the buildings in the back. |
|
The Mark Means elevator and the unfinished freight depot. |
This corner will have several food packing buildings: Smith Frozen Foods, Mark Means, Clinton Foods and Tri State Fruit. |
This end has Lewiston Milling, Lewis-Clark Fruit, Nicks Welding, Northwest Cities Gas and The Reinmuth Box Factory. |
|
This is the Snake River Ave end of the layout. Staging is behind the backdrop. Lewiston Grain Growers will go in the front. |
Here is a daylight shot of the east end taken in March, 2003. |
For this first session, I made up switchlists on Microsoft Excel. I also gave each operator a copy of the 1948 Camas Prairie Timetable and special instructions, and placed a station timetable on the backdrop. |
