    Y'see, soldering in the LED's isn't difficult Ron, just make sure you don't give 'em too much heat, cos' as Corporal Jones used to say, "They don't like it up 'em, Mr Mainwaring!":avatar:

    Thanks Tom, decided to try the platform wall, 24mm high (6'), quite pleased with it so far! Going to add some signs etc and tidy up any white edges and finish the ballasting over the weekend..

    6ft looks spot on :thumbup:, 8ft would have been overpowering and 4ft too low.

    Belated congrats on PTOW mate, really well deserved!

    The wall just looks "Right" heightwise, and the Norfolk 'Harling' finish is spot on, typical of the area.:thumbs:

    Absolutely Toto,

    Very nice indeed Ron. The whole scene on the railway is very good. I think the background really sets it off and it`s a pleasure to watch the railway develop.
