Finishing touches

Well, I think the layout has been finished now. Let me know what you guys think, are there any ideas you may have that I could include!?   Today I added a small traffic signal for loading onto the transporter, added hazard strips to the loading dock edge for the drivers, replaced the shutter for the loading ramp which I ruined yesterday with silver paint. I also added a small electrical box onto the wall next to the newsagent stand.   I cannot think of anything else to add to the layout now

Loading ramp

Was wondering what to do next on the layout when it occurred to me that I needed to add a loading ramp and some sort of buffer stop to the terminal. How else were cars going to get on/off the wagons?!   The result wasn't too bad I think. I just scratchbuilt something, not from any photos or anything either. The main Ramp was simply a folded piece of card which I glued some dirty yellow factory paper from one of the downloads I purchased from Scalescenes. A match became a hydraulic accumulator

Dagenham Factory

Hi all, I'm new here. I'm not sure if this in the correct section to post it, but I just wanted to post a quick write-up and some photos of the layout I built over the last few months. It is very nearly finished, but unfortunately I haven't written much about the actual building of it. Maybe I'll do that at some point in the future.   Anyway here goes. Please let me know your thoughts. Please also remember this is my first layout for a very long time.   *************************************
