Wrong Side of theTracks

The layout room recently had new LED batten lights installed to replace the old fluorescent tubes. 

In order to do so,  I needed to move part of the layout baseboards that was against the wall and above the lights to be replaced. 

A Different Perspective

As a result, it gave me the opportunity to do some detailing and scenery work to areas of the layout that has been difficult to reach. The width of the layout is 600mm so it can be difficult to get to those hard to reach areas. 

It was also a good opportunity to take some photos of the other Terminus Street side of the layout and give a different perspective of scenes not normally able to be photographed.

Overall perspective of the room

To give a perspective of how the layout is normally arranged below is the view prior to the lights being removed.
