Otto, Jimmy, and Phil apply the first coat of drywall mud to the Albion backdrop.
Saturday's work session was a bit quieter than normal, but we still got plenty of work done. Matt G., Phil, David S. and James continued finishing work on the backdrops in Albion and Lockport, sanding and priming the surfaces and getting them ready for sky blue paint. Meanwhile, Phil and Otto shored up our sagging helix with additional beams and legs.
Plaster cloth applied to David's scenery test diorama.
Matt G. installed feeders on the B&O branch, and Otto installed another layer of street surface over the Rochester Subway scene. We played around with some possible scenarios for the Niagara Food Terminal and put together a list of parts to order. David S. continued work on our scenery diorama, applying a plaster hardshell with help from Otto and Matt. Otto also rationalized our giant tub of scenery materials to help save space.
Our next meeting is Tuesday, March 4.
We will be attending the Rochester Model Railroad 75th Anniversary Club Open House on Saturday, March 8.
