Benchwork construction started on December 30th, 2009. The room was not completeley finished, but I started anyway. Construction started with the train-length transfer table which is used for staging trains on the CT&V (Cleveland Terminal & Valley) branch. The transfer table is at 39" from the floor. It will be hidden under the visible portion of the layout.
On the left, the table is shown in it's fully retracted position. On the right, it is fully extended.
