Sprecher/Creighton – 2007

This area is the part of the layout that will feature the Nickel Subdivision to Clarabelle (lower level, left and rear) and Creighton Mine (upper level, right). The Cartier subdivision mainline leaving Sudbury westbound is on the upper deck, with the Inco ore interchange at Sprecher at top left and the end of double track at Flanagan at the rear on the upper deck.

Compare this photo to the earlier view. A new wall and intermediate level walkway has been built at right, stairs connecting all three levels, and ceiling joists and flooring for the second floor. Drywall was removed from the wall at the far end where new layout and a helix will be constructed. (Layout now visible in the rear, and covered with newspaper for protection is the east end of Sudbury yard.) Difficult to see in this photo are modifications to the header of the far wall and the ceiling joists to prepare for a helix that will eventually take tracks to the upper floor.
