The right-hand side of the drawer module after adding back scene, wall and the ground texture. In this picture my wife has started to add greenery.
Above: My wife painted the "sky" on the module and the track was laid, careful measurement was made to try to get some sort of length of train inside the sidings, this is naturally very tight. The idea is to have an approach (through) track (front right), a goods siding (front left), passenger platform (rear left) and loco siding (rear right). Point control is by wire-in-tube.
I selected calendar pictures for the back scene and arranged them as best I could to get the appearance of nearby village buildings, and glued them on carefully.
The station building was scratch built using 4mm Wills Coarse Stone and Corrugated Asbestos sheets, and a fence made from plasticard. The buffer stops and coal bunker were made from strip wood and the walls are from a toy farm, similar to the old "Britains" walls.
Up in the top of the drawer I have fixed an rigid 50cm aluminium LED strip light, they were the perfect size.
A few details have to be installed now such as a water column, diesel tank, goods platform, and a sign board and bench on the passenger platform.
