The Diggle Valley RailRoad Roundhouse 03/02/11 09:33 PM (permalink)

[Helpful answer received] / [List Solutions Only]
Over the past couple of months the DVRR has been starting the first stages of it's 10-12 stall roundhouse.
This will be a huge Building it will take several months to complete
So far we have made a JIG so we can keep making the 10+ walls we need to make The full roundhouse...




We have plenty of wood to keep us going over the colder months...




So far we have built both ends of the roundhouse...




We have lifted a 6 lane Station but we will leave the rack's mainline terminus



from this picture you can see the size of the roundhouse is going to be HUGE!! Thumbs Up
