Building Pottendorf

In October 2022, the layout was four old boards, too good to throw away, they needed to be cleaned and recycled.

 

 

 By March 2023, the boards had been cleaned, track laid and the electrics updated

 

 After the track was laid, a start was made on the scenery

Starting to plant the trees, ten in total

At the end of the track

 

 

 

 

 

It is a lantern from Auhagen 41618, not easy to assemble nor easy to install. A shallow slot had to made in the trackbed and it is held in place by the white PVA glue. There are six on Pottendorf. 

 

 

Unfortunately the Auhagen lanterns are super fragile, it did not survive an accidental bump but was found and the shaft repaired with a piece of 1mm wire. Not all the bits survived but it'll do for now.
