Foam from Gordon & Harris in Hamilton they are reliable suppliers. Thanks for your comments.

Hi Mikkel, I do need the complete Dandry Mire Viaduct & the over bridge towards Moorcock Tunnel at the North end to finish up the layout. Then maybe South along with Water Troughs and Rise Hill Tunnel. Sorry just kidding about South of the Station. Mostly the layout does involve the bridges, station and immediate buildings and use of a tranverser/loop at each tunnel end. However due to garage space limitations the layout will be broken into eight stack able portable modules and fully assembled in a long hall or on fine days my back yard! Still waiting on the Vari Girder kit at the moment.

Thanks Black5. Got a few other projects keeping me busy at present but I will get back to the Coal Rd.bridge and onto the Dandry Mire viaduct soon.

Good things take time. Don't forget to enjoy your journey!

I'm using Evergreen clear 0.4mm sheet and styrene strip 0.25 x 1.5mm

Hello DonB, I've just reviewed this post and come across your post. Foam board is a sheet that is comprised of two sheets of paper with a very fine closed cell urethane sheet in between. Here in NZ it is sold in craft shops as foam board.

Now a moment to reflect about using printers for roof tiles, perhaps I should have made myself a bit clearer here. I do have a printer/scanner, which I could use but choose not to. The printers aren’t the issue with me, but the price of inks here in NZ is!

Printers are a dime a dozen, so much so they are now almost cheaper than a set of ink refills themselves. I did find your comment and information given helpful and I’ll try my best not to be such a cheapskate.

Thanks for your interest Knuckles. I'm still working through with it. Check out David Neat https://davidneat.wordpress.com/

Do like your work Rob. Has inspired me to scratch build from 3.0mm foam board a oo scale version of Garsdale/Hawes Junction Station and  associated buildings.

Cheers from NZ
