Little Tee

[Alex]

Thought I'd finally get a layout topic going, no name yet.

Inspiration came from a now gone line near Manchester.

Not been able to do much as of late with work but hope to have some more done soon

Unnamed??

How about "Little Mickle T"

[Alex]

Trying another feature out, will be a rail over rail bridge.

I do like those "I" beams. The detail is brilliant!

[Alex]

Thanks Doug, That was a very fiddly task.
Think the strips of plasticard where about 1mm and a pain to glue down

Next step is adding the brickwork before glueing down then building up the embankments.

[Alex]

Little bit of brickwork.

[Alex]

Bit more progress.

[Alex]

Settled on a name now too, Little Tee

That's a very nice brick finish. What have you used to achieve it?

I downscaled some N gauge brick styles.
I did the main structure in card then glued the printed brick on.

Embankment starting to build up.

Looking very good!!

I do like the look you are getting here, and the ballasted track is particularly effective.

[Alex]

More fading signs of once prosperous times

The grass is still a bit wet so has a light colour at the moment.

What are you using for grass?

[Alex]

What are you using for grass?

I've been using some noch flock.
Have two greens and a brown. I mix some amounts together so it looks a bit more natural.


Finally painted the girders, next is the other abutment.

[Alex]

More progress,

[hedge]

Loving the progress with this layout!

[Alex]

Some ballast on the bridge now,

[Alex]

Bit blurred as its hard to get a focus.
First attempt at 2 aspect signal.
