Terrain at Presque Isle

This morning I carved terrain in what will become a gravel lot by a row of potato houses at Presque Isle. I used a small, plain, kitchen knife to carve some slight variations into the land that is made of 1 inch thick foam board. In my opinion, this makes the layout much more realistic as ground, especially in Maine, is never flat.

A view of the area before the terrain was carved.

The area after the terrain was carved. The terrain slopes gently away from the tracks for drainage to the Aroostook River, as per prototype photos of the area. 

After two days and full dehumidifier, my road finally dried, so I may attempt more scenery work soon.

My two cats decided that they were both going to 'help' with layout work this morning.
