Anyhow started laying it with the intention of just doing the embankment that had survived rain all week but I didn't want to push our luck any further. Mum and I kind of got carried away though and ended up finishing! I also cut down a short straight to complete the passing loop. We then started laying out the plants bought already and then planted them.
So what do you think?
I'm really pleased. I think it looks wonderful. The ballast has transformed the look!! Dad would be proud...
Good going James, it certainly looks the part.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure your Dad really would be impressed and look and smile with a proud feeling with what you have achieved. Will be nice to see some stock on there when you are next working on it.
Thanks Jam - yes it will. I wonder if my tank engine conversion will be in a run-able state by then!
ReplyDeleteJames, that is looking very nice... I've just seen a real advantage to this scale - remember the fun I had ballasting my OO scenic plank - lummy it looks so much easier here - well done for the progress... trains running soon I hope. It did rain last week didn't it - I was in Chester and got a bit wet whilst out for a walk near Rowton on Tuesday - Wednesday evening nice though. I'm sure, as Jam said, your Dad'd be proud... and wanting to see the trains run.
