Whats Odd is that is only one bag! :D
I used some finer balast like stuff for the gaps.

The idea was that the board would be able to be put in two parts for movement or storage, but that has not really happened, i will once the senary is constructed put it on legs with A frames to support the legs.

As soon as ballst and the rest starts coming on it does transform really quickly!

More picks soon!

you can buy another or the bus depot kit would look good but used as maybe part of the industrial complex?
