And done. This is more or less as per the instructions with some extra structural reinforcement added. Is it good? Well taking into consideration the age of the base kit design and the material, yes. Critics will bleat on about cliches and lack of detail, but that misses the point somewhat. I drew the line at adding loads of extra detail, but that could be done and lift it quite considerably. The other is the height, but that’s a whole other set of questions.
As per the last post, I am minded that it creates a vibe, and a real period feel layout could be developed using the range, the only problem being the signal box which to my eyes doesn’t fit with the rest of the railway ‘A’ series. Well, not like the original 1960s one did. I wonder if anyone has one on a shop shelf somewhere?
