Currently working on the embankment. Originally this was at the right hand end of the board but is now about 3ft from the new end. The embankment was there at the beginning of the layout in 2004 forming part of the backscene. When I modified the board end to add an extra 3 tracks I had to partially dismantle it and it looked empty without it there. So therefore I have resurrected it as the embankment to a disused railway that goes at rightangles to the main trackwork and will cross the running lines by a couple of bridges.

I am at the stage of applying the scatter materials having already built it up from formers, chickenwire and plastercloth and painting it green. Will do a base layer of fine dark green or brown and then apply static grass with assorted vegetation ontop.
