I use wire in tube but at the end of the baseboard I just bend the wire upwards about a centimetre (maybe a bit more).This enables me to hold the wire and push or pull as required.You can cover the end with a bit of tape to make holding it easier.
Names can be a problem. An old Forest of Dean Layout of mine was called Wyebeach . A mixture of Howbeach ,where the Blakeney branch ended, and the river Wye.
I have just purchased Neptune Street Yard from the previous owner who was not on RM Web. The layout has been shown at many local exhibitions and hopefully I can continue to show it either in its present form or with a few changes.
