RMweb Gold cambo74 Posted April 25, 2013 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 25, 2013 Just to prove I'm not a total cheat - I am still working on the diorama ......Tonight I added a raised track section which will run parallel to the lower double track this will be clad with the retaining walls I recently bought.Here's a few pics : Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromptonnut Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Good to keep following progress. Keeps making me want to do something "wintery". Where did you get the snowy backscene from as that would be quite important if I was to follow my thoughts through... I don't know if you've ever seen this film, but whenever I want inspiration for "winter on the railways" I always watch this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold cambo74 Posted May 2, 2013 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted May 2, 2013 Spent last night doing a few things and decided to make some capping for the retaining walls on the diorama - the capping is made from strips of plasticard and scored with a knife to give the impression of slabs. I will then paint it concrete colour and hopefully it'll look the part. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
