Reddibus Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Over the last couple of weeks we have made a start on the scratch building from MDF and plastic tube of the dual carriageway road that will dominate the one end of the layout - designed to take the eye away from the fact the railway is curving round to enter the fiddle yard 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted February 9 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 9 I do like the look of this and the way it's developing. Do you have a planned date for it's first exhibition? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reddibus Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Hi Captain Kernow - We don't have a first exhibition planned as we still have loads of building to scratch build for the layout. We think unfortunately you will have to wait a few years until the layout is on the exhibition circuit 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddibus Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 (edited) We are progressing with the storage tanks for the oil terminal We have 8 of these tanks scratch built around a length of plastic waste pipe. This has been covered in plasicard to replicate the metal panels the real ones are made from. The tops use the lids from storage containers purchased from Wilco before they went out of business Edited February 19 by Reddibus Edit text 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddibus Posted March 21 Author Share Posted March 21 (edited) We have been working on the wing walls for one of the road bridges under the railway. We have based then on wing walls on a bridge close to Northfield Station which have a slight curve on them as the protype picture of the bridge at Northfield station shows.
