ETE Module construction details |

For those interested in the gory details and behind the scenes look at chaos in progress, here are some pix for you. The left module (as viewed from the audience) is simply called the Mountain module and the right is the Valley module. |
The catenary style changed to all Swiss just before the (German) masts were installed. The bottom level had the catenary installed during construction of that level to ensure fault-free operation before higher levels were constructed over it. This made scenicing very difficult. | |||||||||||||||

For my layout, I wanted to used the total mass of the module, especially the vertical dimension since this volume is generally wasted on the average ETE module. But with Swiss narrow gauge railways, this is the perfect environment to expose short sections of track with plenty of bridges, viaducts, retaining walls, and numerous tunnel portals. |
