Evening all.

After a very enjoyable outing to Scalefour North last weekend, this week I have been mostly back on the WC&P.

 

The middle board platform's had a coat of paint and the lineside fences added from Evergreen strip and EZ line elastic.

All three boards have been temporarily reunited so I can work out the line side fencing for the last board.

As can be seen it's going to be mainly scenic, with an occupation crossing at the Weston end of the loop.

The final scenic blitz is going to happen once I've done the remaining board fencing.

Couldn't resist taking a photo from the back of the layout.

I'll probably build the lighting rig before I do the last weathering, over spraying etc so I can gauge how the layout's going to look. I'll be using the fish tank fluorescent tubes again but hopefully a warmer shade than the blue tint for Wheal Elizabeth.

I got mine from Exactoscale last year. Comes in different colours.

I've used EZ line for my GW lineside fenching instead of what was supplied in the Ratio kit, much finer. By the way what have you used to stick the EZ line to the plastic posts?

 

But what are the wooden dowels sticking out of the back or is it the front of the layout for?

Evening Dave

They're the operating rods for the mechanical turnout operating units.

Best Colonel Stephens Austerity style although not with knobs on as I haven't stuck them on yet!

 

edit - and superglue to stick the ez line.
