ReplyDeleteQuestion for you, though - you use C&L code 75 rail + Peco finescale points. Do you have any good shots of the transition between the two in terms of sleeper spacing? Is it noticeable?
As long at the sleepers and ballast are similar in colour it looks fine. Black sleepers and pale ballast would not work.

Chris did you evaluate Exactoscale and/or SMP before opting for C&L?
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen the mag yet but like your previous work a lot.
Regards
It's SMP and Peco code 75 - why SMP? Simply because I had some spare at home. Given the choice I prefer C&L - the chair profile is more distinct. I used all C&L for Catcott Burtle including points..
