Jerry Britton's PRR Middle Division in HO Scale



Work continues on the HO scale Middle Division...

Since last report I have added the backdrops to the framework extensions and painted them sky blue.

I've built the framing that connects that extension with the upper level of the existing framing... in other words, the area of Mann's Narrows that exists between Yeagertown and KV Junction. KV Junction is a few hundred yards railroad west of Reedsville.

 

Benchwork at Mann's Narrows.




During this stretch of the Milroy Secondary, the railroad hugs the bottom of a very high and steep mountain, just above the rapids of the Kishocoquilas Creek.

At right on the photo, the creek will be in the foreground, the track will be angled towards the viewer, and a Pennsy Standard 50,000 gallon steel water tank will precede the steep mountain. I expect this to be a "money shot" for photography when completed.
