Arkham & Miskatonic River - The plan and beginning

Missing
is two 6" end caps, overall length of plan is 12'. All three modules
are built up, track laid and wired. There's still some track tweaking
to do, but overall it seems OK. My Forney runs over most of it at 2-3
scales mph without an issue.

The dock is just a temporary one along with a mockup of the lighthouse.
The Storage Shacks
These sit on the right hand side of the crossover between the tracks.

Arkham Depot Diorama
I've built this small diorama from foamcore, stuck it together with book
tape on the corners. It was wrapped around some styrofoam (yes, the evil
white bead stuff) and attached with double sticky tape. It has a very
slight warp caused by the use of lightweight vinyl spackle, but there is
0 bracing and no glue. I suspect if I glued instead of taped the foam,
this would not be an issue. Sides are two inches (50mm) tall. Track is
handlaid.
