Progress on Little Common

 Started doing the backgrpound scenery on Little Common. Have not yet decided the final track layout for the yard, but the main wiring feeds are in, then it will be fitting and wiring the point motors. Started a bit of ballasting, 2mm sizwe which I reckon is about right. Pictures very cruelly show early ballast attempt, I hate ballasting  but hopefully I can get the colour I want.

Here are the pictures







The platelayers hut is not a permanent feature as till got to finish the area round the bridge.

Little Common

It's Hornbys fault - a Terrier in TT:120! So that led to pre ordering the freight set with the B4 and thoughts of a layout. Well have a spare Tim Horn baseboard and an Iain Rice plan so let's see where this takes us!
Since my original post the plan has changed a bit. Substitute the single slip for a pair of points, which has cut down the space. 

Layout suffers from Chicken before egg syndrome in that I've done a bit of science work before finalising the track, picture below.
