4mm Llanfair

[Rob R]

Larry,
That fencing looks just right.
Very rarely dead straight when it went in and more than half a century on......

Another bit done hiding the road as it hits the backscene. Planting a tree of sloping ground was a challenge so I did it last night and propped it up with a pair of track cutters while a blob of PVA impregnated with static grass dried. This morning, some dead grass was added under the tree...

Morning Larry was just studying the pictures of the coal yard you are fettling and looking at the backscene it ooks like that area of the Dee Valley between Carrog and Corwen looking up to the B5437 as it passes Maes Y Waen......all excellent stuff

Thanks Gismo. You know the area well with living there. The Dee Valley looks to me very similar to some areas on the Shropshire borders down the valley to Welshpool.

A photo merely taken to see how the 4mm vac'd grass looks. Every day, I take photos of new 'work' and then go though photo albums to see how things really looked and how the model might be improved. This platform end shot tells me the accumilation of muck at places like this is missing...

It would be a very fastidious Stationmaster who had that bit of land regularly cut.

Would some low shrubbery be a good way of filling the area whilst keeping it tidy.

That area is a prime candidate for rhododendron - fills it up; low maintenance.
