UPDATED 28 APRIL 2023.
Here are a couple of photos of the module before I started the current construction. The track was in place but it was not "paved", nor was there any overhead. I primarily used the tracks for static display of models

I am now in the process of building the floor of the carbarn. The tracks will be simulated girder rail in a concrete floor. I am not putting "pits" in this carbarn. I simulate girder rail by putting a 1/8" brass angle next to the inside of a Code 125 rail. I then fill the space between the rail and the brass angle with solder. I then clear out the solder to simulate the inside of the girder rail. I then "pave" the street or the floor in this case using plaster of paris. After leveling the plaster, I paint the floor of the carbarn using Decoart matte craft paint. I use a color "Sand Grey" which is a light grey with a slight light brown or sand tone.
