Paper Mashie - God i hate it :-)


So with the cracking weather we have had over the weekend, i decided to lock myself in the shed and attack the layout with a pasting brush and ripped up newspaper.









What a difference it makes to have the layout covered in newspaper,

Its starting to take shape and one i like.

Its a lot clearer on how the levels are changing and clear where the tracks are running.  This is just the first layer of paper to give me a base to work from.




The next step is to form the Scenic are where the track will disappear into the 2 tunnels after the Trestle bridge.







This is a View at the back of the layout, where the track crosses.  The plan is not to have this as a viewing side,  but this might change if i can make it look ok







The well is where the Turntable will sit when built.  Another project that needs kick started.  I am going to use an Atlas N Gauge Turntable with motor.  I am going to fit a Chip to it to allow me to operate it using the controller and then there is no need for fancy boards and switches.
