The railcar is on the entry track
The sidings next to the wall are also upper level storage - making a total of 31 such sidings on the D&S
The supports are in - some are threaded rods due to insufficient space tween tracks
From the aisle - will not be enclosed to allow for access if required
To discuss tonight with the operating crew a few things such as panel or not for the switches to operate solenoid motors.

Isn't there a song from the Bond movie "Live and Let Die" that goes something like - "in the ever changing world in which we're living" ………………..:roll::roll:
Where does "Marabost" come from and are you going to be able to either, hinge the boards upwards or reach that rear siding from the front when all the others are full ? That last siding is the one where ALL the derailments will take place !!!! In fact, you could call it "Murphy's Siding" ;-)

The name Marabost is derived from my operating crews names.
The bottom rear siding is in fact the main line & over the last few years, never had a derailment due to careful track laying & making sure all rolling stock is close to AAA in back to backs, etc. Planning to have the station to be lifted off if needed.

I admire your seeming efforts to cover a small portion of Terra Australis Incognito with Peco Semi Cognito….
Yes, Peter, it is bloomin' hot 32 here as well and me sanding the terrace wood-work. In the middle of re-gluing a 1/76th door knocker to a door with S'glue a drip of perspiration landed smack on target and washed it away…and, for the second time in my life I superglued the starboard arm of my spectacles to my lug'ole.
Keep at it Sol,
Doug

It would drive me crazy, but that's how we are all different.
…. And having said that there is a section on NE that I am planning to rip up and relay….:roll:

looking both ways:
The station throat, etc
The panel - toggles for solenoid motors using the "one-Wire" method
