Grover's Module Set

Here's an old shot of Grover's new 3 Module set right after he built it. His module set consists of two 6' modules and a 4' corner module. It will feature a 3% grade coming from both the outer & inner mains to the mountain line, an Intermodal Yard (with structures & details salvaged from the old 10' module set), & has a Refinery on the corner module (also salvaged from the old modules).

What a difference nine months make. As you can see Grover has added a lot of track to the module. He now has the mainline passing sidings in, the 3% grade transition to the mountain is line finished, added a passing siding to the mountain line, & has a good start on the intermodal yard. The modules use Peco Long turnouts, both Peco concrete tie & Atlas code 80 flex track & Kato single Viaduct curved track to the mountain line. When it is finished the modules will have both an intermodal yard and a refinery on the corner.

Here is the current state of the modules, note the intermodal yard is much closer to being completed. All of the track has been ballasted, and a concrete tarmac has been paved.

Here is a close up of the other end of the module set, showing some of the details that have been added. To get to the storage tanks, you must cross over a timber trestle bridge.

Here's a shot showing Grover's module set from the other end.

He has also added another four foot module to the other side of the corner module. Note the slanted rock formation, it is made from ceiling tiles.

Here is a detailed view of the facility.
