  2. Yes i did fishmanoz took a while but i got there in the end, tested it with most of my locos from small stuff to big stuff and adjusted it where i needed it one sode is not finished yet but i used them hornby track stilts or whatever there called then used foam to make the incline and yes PJ alot of work over the weekend i will hopefully have all the ballast down this weekend then will finish the othere incline Thanks john Hi John I must admit I thought the same as Fishy, those inclines looked a bit steep but, so long as you have tested then and they work for you, just be sure they are on a solid base so that you don't get any give at all on the track when trains and carriages run up them. Images sometimes make things look different depending on the angle. Good luck PJ Yes looking at the pic it does look alot steeper than it is but i tested it and took alot of advice before i started it and got some of the lads from my local club to have a look and they said it was fine PJ Rad i used insolation foam for my incline i found that i got a better effect to make a rock face or just a hill. Try with different things to make the incline im not and expert by any means hooe it goes well good look.

  4. Yes PJ i am but the problem is i work away 5 days a week so cant get much done in 2 days but the ideas ive got it should look awsome Hi John We all have different amounts of tie for our trains, thats life I am afraid but, so long as we enjoy what we do that is all that really matters. Please keep us updated as time allows, we like to share our layouts and ideas on here. PJ Will do i will put a pic on tomorrow when i have most of the balast down. Wow John I think you are very brave! Putting ballast on so early. Make sure you are happy with everything before adding ballast. I would love to add it as it makes the layout look good but, for me, it will be one of the last things I add. Good luck, look forward to seeing your pictures PJ Well PJ I have had this track made up for about a year changing little bits as and when. But it was time to finally put it down so it look better heres a pic of what i have achieved this weekend /media/tinymce_upload/20150222_141549.jpg
