hello hello welcome back with my second train station mostly done in just parts
waiting to arrive in the mail I did like I said I was going to do I started
looking down in this direction and I realized that I need to figure out some
other things before I can determine exactly what I can do with my zoo and
with my planetary defense Force Base so I looked a little bit farther over
and determined that this was kind of the limiting factor at this time that I
needed to figure out exactly the shape and size of my port area and my cargo
harbor area so I've done some work on this in earnest for a good number of
hours did some planning there's a whole bunch of experimentation and you see
that I have moved the train sightings over to this side and they're kind of
rotated 90 degrees from the way they were set up previously this layout just
makes more sense and gives me more room to park basically more boats in there so
I can have intermodal operations going on strictly over here I'm just going to
limit it to this because that's where the train tracks are but then I can also
have something small docked up there and I could have something large docked here
or a couple of smaller things docked here and I'll put in a couple of cranes
you know this is just a standing obviously but I'll put in a couple of
cranes here to serve as both sides of this pier so I've got this pier here and
I get to also dock boats on the other side not as much room over here but
plenty of railing this this is enough room here to even dock my largest ship I
don't think we're gonna make anything bigger than than that at all so that can
actually fit here and still have a little bit of water to the outside of it
which I want it to have so that's that that was the kind of the planning end of
it but I've also done some execution so I've got this pier out here and this is
completely solid well it's solid enough to actually use beneath here I used some
of my new DUPLO new used DUPLO plate pieces to good effect and they're buried
away like they're supposed to be this is not where where I was expecting to use
those but it was a perfect opportunity because plates are the height of a
single brick and these piers are two bricks tall so I can put regular Lego
bricks on top of them tiles on top of that and everything works out there's a
little bit of a gap under here right now but I'm going to show you presently what
that's all about I've decided to put in just a little bit
of texture because I realized that what I had been doing with well with the
previous version of the city and the previous location of this dock in this
city I had been just going smooth for these visible edges and I don't like
that it's it's plain I was dumb idea so at least bringing in some texture is is
a must it's something it's better than nothing so I'm gonna extend that all the
way around eventually and that's why I've left some gaps here just a one stud
gap to fill that in because I ran out of pieces again yeah
recurring theme ran out right there I've got I think about that many just on the
other side as well so those are gonna go all the way around but this part of the
of this pier over here is also filled up with stuff underneath and I used up all
of my funky shaped corner round DUPLO plates from that last
hall that I got there in a couple of orders that I got from eBay I've used
pieces so those were pieces that were not going to be easy to use but they've
all been used up now which is great also the ones that had the the kind of tiled
area with no studs in the middle they look like driveways almost or railroad
crossings those are used up as well I think those are there
I don't remember anyway the structure of the piers is all
here now it's been extended out quite a bit
and I even did something that I wasn't expecting at all I didn't think I was
going to do at all I thought that I was done with the shaping of the tables and
the space that would be used up by tables because I had done everything
that I could do with the sizes that I have available to me to use with the
system but over here I have added a gap so I'm actually extended ultimately
extended this table out by a fair amount I think it's like what is that eight
studs in it or six oh yeah eight studs it's something and if you look all the
way under here yeah there you can see kind of how the the old framework which
was just kind of continued over from the old location of all this stuff is just
under there holding things up well enough I'll probably put just a little
more under there since there's nothing directly underneath you know just some
plates to help secure it all but that gap means that the entire layout has
been increased by this thickness times that length so that's good bigger is
better in terms of Lego layouts I think always this whole thing looks kind of
plain here but it was a bunch of work and the most important thing is that
once I once I figure out for certain where these plates are going to line up
with the rest of the city because I just need to put some tiles in and make sure
that everything is lined up properly when you don't have things connected you
can very easily start to be off by a full stud after a long long run so you
know I don't have anything connected all the way back there all the way down here
so I need to just make sure that all this is is correct and spacing cannot be
like this between plates you actually need a slight gap in order for them to
line up properly it needs to be more like that so I need to to do that and
then once I've verified all of that then I will trim off these plates here that
are a little bit too long and also I've got just a handful down
here that need to be trimmed off for a custom length I've used up a bunch of my
my spares and trimmings already that I've you know from from previous cuts
mostly now mostly down out there and also a little bit in here in the center
of the layout as well but used up a bunch of those trimming pieces which is
always a good feeling things I don't have a whole bunch of extras leftover of
it there will be some more smaller trimmings come up coming up that will be
trimmed down and yeah it's progress the fact that this is here now and the bases
are pretty solid means that I can start to build the first thing that I'm gonna
do is figure out exactly where the cranes will be and also I have enough
space to put some structure in here of some sort and then I'll start putting in
tiles to create the kind of custom road work
so to speak you know just the paved areas of this since all of it will be
paved and you know I can I can do that in a custom way since it will all be
done with tiles or at least 90% and then I also need to determine exactly where
the turn in will be and how that'll work out with all the planetary defense force
and stuff but it's not I'm pretty certain it's not gonna be over there I
also have the option should I choose to take advantage of it I have the option
to to bring this part of the main rail line towards me this way back this way
by you know since I don't need this switch here now I've just left a small
sighting in here but you know originally this was feeding the main lines or the
main sightings down there for the port but I don't need that anymore so if I
want to I can easily change everything from there just past that new switch all
the way out to here so I'll go into the the blue Rick software program and
experiment a little bit and just go look at it you know see if I if I want to
move the rail away from the roadway if that will gain me anything if it'll
gain me enough along the main road versus what I'll lose in space back here
potentially you know cuz that's not gonna be part of the the cargo system
per se you know trains will just go past and what they do out there is out there
is kind of on their own time that'll you know feed into this but I'll figure that
out I may I may end up just leaving it as it is for now may figure out
something different to do down here but I wanted to show you the progress
because it is fairly significant and the stuff that's gonna come next is gonna be
more significant still but I wanted to kind of show you the process you know
what what actually go through it doesn't it doesn't ever go from just plain table
to finished obviously and it doesn't even go from from base plates being down
to working on buildings and structures and such and such there some in between
steps that are really really important and it did take a good amount of time to
do some of the the trimming of plates already to fit into here like I got
these four side wide ones that are they're custom just for the gap and also
putting in all the framework underneath here all the infrastructure stuff is
really important it's not key that all infrastructure be done first you can
definitely just dive in and start building stuff
this is Lego it's not real life so there's not a huge cost other than in
time to just diving in and starting to build and if it turns out what you're
trying to do can't be done physically then you know you take apart
and start again you know it's it's not that big of a deal but I choose to try
to go with the infrastructure stuff first and then build upon that it's not
the right way it's not the best way I don't think it's just a way so I want to
show you that because it's important and I'm gonna do some more work yeah I will
talk to you in soon
