With the exhibition just weeks away now, I've decided to extend the layout to give the trains a longer run and open up more operating space on the inside of the layout. So today I'm building the first of two brand new short modules that will go between the curves at either end.
This allowed me to have a go at adding some new features to the layout and on this one I've decided to build a rock face! Watch along as I build up this new module from laying the track to the finishing touches, including showing you how I paint up my rocks before installing them on the model railway!
