I've started the scenery within the spiral
the plan is to have a disused quarry, with state waste and ruined buildings, a bit like the quarries on the way up to Moel Siabod from the South if you've been there
plenty of scope for industrial detritus
this is how the spiral was a week ago [james's Hercules]
and yesterday after digging, and bedding in a preformed pond liner, a lot of weed proof membrane, and a lot of rock shifting, only stopped by the rain
therre's a lot of rock to put in yet - to either side of the quarry and aroun the spiral, and lots more slate waste, and some planting
the buildings may be a winter project
after a bit of a gap due to other committments further building up of Quarry Mountain, and slate chip infill of the spiral
the next stage is to make a disused quarry tramway feeder line
I have some 32mm track and plan to get some skips and slate wagons at Llanfair this w/e
- all of which will be rusted up and made derelict
primed skips and a bit of track planning in the sunshine today
tramway formation, culvert and foundation for slate cutting shed ruin
track laid and awaiting ballast
