evidence:
"Board A", aka the back left corner. one end supported by a shelf (the grey bit of wood bottom left, waiting for primer to dry so not in place on the wall brackets.. hence the whole thing not being even close to level).
2'x4' module, three levels, the lowest is datum -3", this will be a purely scenic area, next is the start of what will be a 1:82 climb with a gentle transition at either end - there is a diagonal brace yet to be added to help with this in the corner to support the curved tracks. higher level is a 1:50 gradient the other way which will curve round 90 degrees on roughly a 19" & 21" radius curve.
very basic, the end near the wall has small adjustable feet, as do the bottom of the legs (also keeps the wood of the leg off the floor)
and the legs have a screw fixing to the board (hence the lack of any cross braces)
means the legs are both adjustable and quite easy to remove
slight irritations, Wickes don't seem to have 2" square timber, so the legs fixing plate needed a small fillet of 12mm ply adding, probably stronger this way.
framing is 9mm plywood, track deck likely will be the same, there may also be more cross bracing added or the ply decks will gain stripwood bracing, not decided yet. aim is to build the whole frame - three modules long, in two rows, with smaller joining boards, and get that completed prior to adding the track deck to allow easier adding of bus wires and similar cruft.
board alignment holes not yet added, will be done when I have a few of the frames, likely method is sticking some stripwood to the inside face of the ends then using the DCC Concepts alignment dowel.
a backscene will be added eventually, this is quite a long way off
However it is progress, aim to build a second module tomorrow, and depending on how it all goes a third
