TURN ON THE LIGHTS PT2

As noted in a previous post, I replaced the foam board underneath Main Street and replaced it with a length of plywood.
Here is the layout while the work was in progress. I also redid the back side as well, so now the grass strip has been moved. The two building halves on the back portion are not going to stay there; I don't know where this building will go once it's completed.


The buildings along Main Street have been put back in place; now the road can go back, along with the vehicles. Then the yard and main line will be clear for that freight train to pass through! With a solid board underneath, I was now able to drill holes and add streetlights.


The previous post showed the new twin lights on the west end of the yard; now here's the new twin lights on the east end.


With both ends of the yard now lighted, the workers can see what they're doing at night -and spot suspicious activity as well; vandalism of cars in the yard was starting to rise.


The first of the Main Street lights went up across the street from the alleyway behind The Pub. Given the location, any extra lighting in this area is a plus!
