After a slow summer and fall, work has started on the layout again. A big thanks to Tim Siorek for his help in painting the backdrop. The backdrop was primed with white Zinser water based primer. The first coat was was Benjamin Moore "Ben" line flat paint tinted "Angora Blue" an Ace Hardware color.For the second coat, Angora Blue was used along the top and a blue one shade lighter was used along the bottom. These were mixed in the middle.

The first view is taken from the layout entrance looking toward the back wall. The peninsula is to the left in the photo.

This picture is looking back toward the door on the same side of the peninsula as the previous picture

Now we are on the other side of the peninsula, looking to the back wall of the layout room.

Finally, we are looking at the front wall on the closed side of the peninsula
