The ground above the tunnel doesn't look high enough to justify it - but putting a tunnel halfway inside a cutting is even worse!! It's like the modeller couldn't decide which he wanted - tunnel or cutting - so had both!! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone offer any advice? Probably should have fitted the rails before ballasting? Now everything's glued up solid you can't wiggle the sleepers as you thread the rails in. 🤔🤣 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

P4 wheels are all very well, but setrack points and unrealistically sharp curves spoil the realism completely - look at that bogie swing on the orange loco!! 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
