Since the last update, very little has happened with the layout due to various other distractions. However, today I got some free time and decided to make some progress. The station building now has all of the doorframes and window surrounds fitted and most are painted.

A nice quick project was a portacabin for the engineers bothy on the front right of the layout. Starting point was the Hornby Skaledale R8765 Car Sales Office. The brandings came off with a light scrape from a cocktail stick. Then various washes of black, brown, grey and green were applied to end up with this :

Slightly grotty but reasonably well maintained portacabin.
