Ohh, post nothing for 6 days and down onto page 2 .....
Seems we're a hive of activity on NRM !!
Anyway what may be my last postings for this layout unless I can add a couple of it in use with
children driving.
I've been sorting out the bridge and adding decorative balls to help hold down the end coping stones.
What you see are noticeboard pins embedded deep into the ply framework, which I hope will make
them resist knocks and bumps that use by children may bring.
I have taken short cuts, as can be seen there is no liner inside one half of the bridge. This should not
be seen normally as it's intended that the layouts back will be close to a wall.
The same situation with the tunnel interior which is not lined, but painted matt black to hide the shortcoming.
What I do want to find is the grey I used for the road up the hill, I've already tried two colours on the road
bridge, but not found the right one yet !!
What I'll do tonight is add grass to the bridge under the black railings, which themselves are simplified by
not having a middle rail
I want to take to club tomorrow evening and leave there in advance of our exhibition on 20th August. Perhaps
then I can start back on my own layout. I still think this is good for 3 months since starting.
