Construction Update: January 24 – 28 | Level 3 Helix and Room 2 prep

Another week is coming to a close and we’re looking at February already.  Time flies!

John and Bob continued work on the helix, as track has been laid up to Level 3 and work has begun to get the last portion done (up to “Level 3.5”).

A look at the first turn up from L3 to L3.5. The line on the white door frame marks where it will peak at.

Track work is incomplete.  Additional work is required to finalize the entry and exit on Level 3.  We’ll be looking at that problem and it’s planned solution later next week in an update.

Meanwhile, prep work on Room 2 is well underway.  The closet has been removed and drywall application has commenced.  Myles and Brandon have been working on sanding and mudding jobs.  Bob is currently working on moving another light box and re-routing the wiring.

Myles and Bob review additional re-wiring construction ideas in Room 2.

 

A look at the west and north walls in Room 2. Getting close to primer and paint time.

Primer and paint should be applied and completed in Room 2 by Sunday evening.

Detailed track plans have begun to take shape on paper.  We’ll post updates on how we’re planning on making those designs at a later date.

Things are back up to speed at the Action Hobbies Railroad.  Look for additional construction updates soon.
