Beechcroft Model Railway - #64. Tackling the Hillside and other Bits!

#hornbyrailways , #modelrailways , #bachmann , #modeltrains , #oogauge
It’s great to be back working on the layout. My focus for the week is the new hillside and area above the tunnel entrances.
I’ve also started to look at the positioning of the derelict farm buildings - trying to work out how to overcome the sloping landscape. I have. Couple of ideas but not sure just how realistic it will look. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated!
As always, Thank you for watching.

Wouldn’t bother what that bloke says your layout looks brilliant

[@rocknroll527]

Magnificent layout.

Great work..... Keep the farm buildings in the same paddock. I like them all close to the bottom end of the paddock. In line the buildings will offer a mid-scene break. Try the orchard in that flat paddock across the lines.

The layout continues to grow and makes for an excellent railway. I like how you show the products used it genuinely makes for an informative video as well as am enjoyable one. I use the Osborne Models AL00201 cotswold stone walling too. Not cheap but worth it.
I wonder if an area set aside for an allotment might offer fine detail more videos and products reviewed. You don't offen see a ploughed brown earth field it makes for a change from grass. I watched David of Horsehay Model Railway #12 use a Busch HO 1204 Weizen Feld / Wheat Field to good effect. I'm with you all the way about what is or isn't prototypical running locomotives and rolling stock.

Hi Andy.
Great job buddy.
Wish I could make my static grass stand up like yours.
Good decision with the fence rather than the wall.
Great update Andy. Shame your not going to GETS.
Thumbs up thumped 👍

Hi Pete, if you are having trouble with your static grass, most likely the mesh is too fine.
