Calshot 4mm - SRS's Blog

Not tedious in the slightest! It just reflects your progress at present. I only wish I could dedicate more time to modelling

You're definitely going to need something to act as a view break at the backscene! Which sides is that on? Right or Right and Bottom?

Thanks for the continued support James.

I've certainly missed not being able to have time for modelling since Calshot's first exhibition a year ago - it's been great to make visible progress at last.

 

The fiddle yard exit will be on the right going from bottom to about half way up (just above the top red (NG) line) - the area above that track will be the space for the Duty Offices or something else to act as view blocker.

 

The viewing side is likely to be from the top of the plan, although I'm considering having viewing access to all sides (minus the FY side of course), hence my plan for a movable backscene (which I'm still not 100% sure about).

Nothing tedious about regular updates, keep 'em coming. I'm interested to see this one progress as it's a very original idea. It would look good with a bow frame Simplex running along the front....

Thanks halfwit.

I have an armoured Simplex - I do like the look of it scurrying around the front with a couple wagons.

Wiring the layout will be the next big step (with JohnDMJ doing most of the work ) as that means I can crack on with the scenery and start to bring the layout to life.
