  12. Another excellent year for the Great Electric Train Show - first highlights are the Making Tracks West Coast Main Line layout by Pete Waterman and Railnuts group.
  13. hello, I then went on to weather up the track rails and ballast so the darker stones are now not as much of a stand out. For the ballast on the mainline it is Hattons modern grey blend - fine thanks.
  14. A detailed look at the track laying for the inclines and transition from inclines to the scenic section. The track is code 75 and is pinned down on the inclines whilst the transition to the scenic section track is glued down with copydex. Part 2 will eventually follow looking at the track laying on the main lines and container depot for the scenic section.
  15. Hi Ian, before I used summer green grass mixture between woodland scenic and green scenes long fibres. After I mixed in some spring of both brands mentioned previously and added some darker scatter over the top of the static grass. Much more realistic to have lots of different colours now and a fade of colours on the embankments. thanks, Matt
  16. During recent work for the embankments I made the grass area on top of the tunnel area more realistic in colours and to some extent making it look more weathered with the before and after below
  17. What a difference scenery and a backscene makes from this ... to this - which is a still not finished as yet
