    And yes to pay up front for it. How ever I've read some interesting posts on this topic and I would love to see a good quality wagon first as a test run, the cement bubble would be a good test case I think.

    Thanks Kieran, your right about the shelves, and a few more to construct to house the remainder. I'm currently installing drawers for most of the stock that will go under the base boards when the electrics are completed. Regards

    Thanks for the comments everyone, Fridge, kettle and glasses on order, drinks will be supplied for heirflick when he visits and also any others. As for the insurance you have to pass the wife first, then the dogs before the alarm, and if your that good theres a double barrel waiting. Thanks guys. The derry road

    =DHi Folks, finally some more pictures of the backscene and layout progress, hope they are of interest. Also some stock on display The derry road
  15. The Derry Road
    Hi All, I've Just finished putting a 3mm hardboard backscene former around the whole layout 12inches high/10 in some places, and have pasted on the gaugemaster backscenes to it, fingers crossed there are no wrinkles so far. So i will check it again tomorrow and take some pictures of the result. Thanks to Heirflick and broithe for their earlier advice on this method. The Derry Road

    Heirflick and broithe, Thanks to you both, I'm going to give this a go and put up some photos when done :Happy1:
  21. The Derry Road
    Broithe this sounds a good idea, which would form a continuous backscene around the whole layout, approximately 48feet. many thanks
  22. The Derry Road
    Heirflick, thanks for your tip, was it wallpaper paste you used, or adhesive of another type?
  23. The Derry Road
    Guys thanks again for the comments and encouragement, I've purchased some gaugemaster backscenes and was wondering if anyone on the site can offer advice/tips on the best way to fix these in position so they don't wrinkle:trains:
  24. The Derry Road
    Thanks Heirflick, it was made of readily available items. brass screws, black self adhesive car stripe and the usual switches and controllers fixed onto a white board panel suitably strengthened. The labelling is printed onto clear self adhesive labels on a PC. Regards The Derry Road
  25. The Derry Road
    Hi folks sorry for the late reply, real work has to come first. Attached is a few pictures of the control panel, just have to connect it all together. Being wired for cab control I'm considering fitting a switch to convert to DCC at a later date if I choose. Currently will have to make do with what I have.
