Work is progressing nicely in the train room. I’ve had assistance this week from a couple friends, Wayne Robichaux and Ron Findley. Their help was vital in order to hang the 8′ widths of drywall. Saturday, unbeknownst to me, Ron recorded a few pictures of the work in progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Insulated<\/a>
Ron made this image of the area where we were working before things got started.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\"Laying<\/a>
Here I am laying out the locations of the boxes for the electrical receptacles. This sheet alone had four boxes in it!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Cutting<\/a>
And now I’m cutting out the box openings. No, there is no toilet in the train room. This one will find it’s way back into the restroom once the walls are finished and painted. \ud83d\ude42<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/a>
This sheet of drywall is hung and ready for finishing. The rag is covering the electrical equipment and connections for one of the model railroad districts. It’s one of three equipment locations. The L-girder bracing on the wall side has been temporarily removed to allow better access to the wall.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We’re on the downhill part of the drywall installation now, with a 28′ long wall, and half dozen “short” walls left to complete. My sincere thanks go out to Wayne and Ron for volunteering to help me with this work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
