Pushing the Trackwork Towards Completion!

Click on each picture for a closer look!

The pace of construction of the miniature railway track has largely been dictated by the pace at which Pine Valley, the contractors for the development of the roadbed, have completed their work. We have been fortunate that significant numbers of our volunteers have been able to come out during the week to keep track construction progressing as soon as the roadbed is ready. In the picture at the upper left we find Michael, the TRHA VP in charge of the overall project, turning his attention to myself as I visited Roundhouse Park today and away from the development of one of the many unique crossings of the mainline track by the miniature railway. In the middle image, I caught the rest of the TRHA "track gang" at "end of track" and convinced them to pause their work efforts for a group picture. In the final picture, we see that Pine Valley have now excavated the area in the southeast corner of Roundhouse Park where the miniature railway train shed and turntable will be built.
