BC&SJ - Causeway to East Jallen - Oct 20, 2002


BCSJ II - October 20, 2002

Note: As I write this the BC&SJ is gone (and has been since December 2002). I'm awaiting a move into new quarters before the BC&SJ will rise again.

When the BC&SJ was setup for operation I pulled out the Jallen and Bear Creek Salvage (East Jallen) modules and connected them to the main layout with a causeway. This became the Jallen branch and was the destination of the Jallen Turn that switches the industries along the way. For quite a while the Jallen causeway was a rudimentary affair - bare plywood with braces topped with flex track.

For the 2003 MR photo contest I decided to build a new causeway incorporating detailed scenery. Here are some photos of the new scenery.

Here is the original plywood flats causeway that was replaced with the new scenery.

Just a little different?
