dasatcopthorne Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Work continues ate the bridge end where the fiddleyard gives way on to the scenic boards. I still cannot decide on what to have, building wise, on the hardstanding at the rear. Oil, cement or a combination of both. Thing is, I got Cement tanks, Oil tanks and petrol tanks. Oh and old and new vans. Any suggestions gratefully received. EL Edited February 14, 2023 by dasatcopthorne 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasatcopthorne Posted April 19, 2020 Author Share Posted April 19, 2020 (edited) My apologies as there seems to be two pictures missing regarding the inset track area. Here they are in their full glory. The thing is, what to do with it. It fits just over 2 TTAs.

dasatcopthorne Posted April 23, 2020 Author Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) Been working on EL today. Yesterday I decided that something had to be done with the rear siding with the inset track. I decided to have a loading platform and worry about a building later. Thing is there is a curve in the track and I am fresh out of Peco platform edging. So, it had to be stripwood. As it needed a bend in it, I soaked it for a couple of hours and left it suspended between two other things on a table with a 5lt can of paint on it. Today I've cut the strip to shape and fitted a few cross members. Top is card covered in wet&dry paper. Mortar paint has been run into the embossed plasticard brickwork and wiped off ready for brick colour etc. Edited February 14, 2023 by dasatcopthorne 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dasatcopthorne Posted April 26, 2020 Author Share Posted April 26, 2020 (edited) Platform 2 is going in over this weekend. It will be removable (screwed down from underneath) in case I change my mind at some time in the future.
