A small alleyway is between these buildings behind the gate. I have also removed the platform from the bonded warehouses to lower them in height and also due to the fact that I am locating then facing on to a roadway rather railway line. I have also made a start on the inset track with check rails glued into place and infill with cork starting to be laid. other than the middle of the track itself a second layer of cork is still to be laid to raise the height to rail level and then be painted concrete. The other main building are starting to take shape in the form of a quayside office building and a further warehouse (still needing its platform to be made) these are the excellent products from Lcut Creative. In this last view for now, the small engine building can be seen to be taking shape from a Skytrex resign kit. Further ground cover will be added once the top layer of the inset track has been finished using modelling clay to represent earth mud and ash type ballast. What did you use for check rail... Just found the answer after reading further on... Nice little shunting layout Edited February 21, 2021 by John Besley . 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium petethemole Posted March 20, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 20, 2021 When I researched the history of said lager for archaeological purposes (we found some crates of it in a wine merchants' shop bombed in 1940) I found that Allsop & Co had vans branded for it, one of the few genuine brewer-branded vans I'm aware of. Is the tanker based on a real wagon? Just asking, not criticizing! It was rebranded as Skol in the early '50s. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
