Not had much time to do a lot to this but I have added some detail to the tunnel's and put a base rst color on the rails ready for weathering.....
Two Tunnels
Over the past 20 years I have had a few loft based layouts for the kids ..

and have painted roads etc and put Hornby buildings up but have never had a go at putting scenery down on a layout and as my main layout is no more ( being re planned ) I decided I needed a section of track to test loco's on and something to have a go at scenery on so off I went to see what bits I had that I was not going to use on my main layout and this is what I came up with I still have quite a bit to finish off :-

You could always ask one of the MODS to delete,for you if/when they have the time.....
A week..with the snow and all, You'd have to survive off the self heating packets of ALL DAY BREAKFAST's I have in the storeroom......
