      Just think of the possibilities. DCC control - spray annoying rivet-counters, self-appointed experts and smelly herberts with one push of a button!

      missed it previously!

      The thread started in January has suddenl taken off, sprouting about 3 pages of entries in the last 48 hours. I bet the apparent interest will not be matched by entries. Cynic.. Moi?

      Looks like a good competition. Would like to try my hand a little scenic work

      Good job it wasn't Accrington Stanley then!

  15. I've put ballast down, and then dropped on Klear - but even after a few hours it's not set - what am I doing wrong ?

    1. TomE

      TomE

      It can take a while to set fully. Also depends how much Klear has been applied.

    2. Stubby47

      Stubby47

      Ah, thanks. I probably need to add more then.

      I have two Wickham trollies on order. The whole company is tolerant of my modelling, when I had the layout in work the MD was showing it to all the visitors
