Embankment time, while I can still reach it…
I’ve been toying between a retaining wall or embankment for the area where the incline is. Decided on an embankment with a small retaining wall and #Scalescenes tunnel portal in random ashlar, and, to help the transition I’ve added in a small wooden sleeper retaining wall.
The large ‘field’ is causing me to scratch my head. I can’t decide whether it’s too big for just a sheep field, or whether I can have several fields and maybe even some buildings - that’s one for another day!
Thanks for watching.

The tunnel portal, embankment et al looks great. A platelayers' hut would fit in there perfectly.
Thanks very much 👍
Not Watched this weeks video yet but been meaning to leave a comment for some time - I love your videos and wathcing your layout develop and its been nice to see your confidence on camera growing with each new video - love the channel and the content - good work.
Thank you very much. Really appreciated. I still don’t like the sound of my own voice!! 👍
All looking good. A box of offcuts and bits is essential in my book. You only need to collect stuff for 20 odd years and use one small piece to justify the bits box’s existence!
I love that!! 👍
Looks fantastic.
Thanks very much 👍
Looking good.
Thank you 👍
Looks good mate like all the detail on the tunnel parapet wall quality enjoyed the video
Cheers. 👍
No you are not weird. I have lots of bits left over from projects, although i do now take some stuff down to my local railway club for people to use.
Reassuring to know!! I just don’t like throwing things away!
great modelling skills looking good
Thanks very much 👍
Nice job. Looks very good.
Thank you 😊
INSPIRED!
☺️
Amazing job !
Thank you 😊
Put a Gypsie camp in there, little flickering light brazier few old style horse drawn caravans etc!
Plus a few washing machines and a couple of piles of tarmac ...!!!!!!!
Now that’s an interesting idea 👍
Hi Andy.
Love you're skills and ideas.
Do like that tunnel, with the gradients.
In the middle of doing a re vamp myself vlogged part 1 gone down the Embankment route as you have. Mines a bit smaller area than yours though.
Brilliant vlog Andy thank you.
...Pete....
Hi Pete. Hope you’re well. Thanks mate, it’s taken some doing but nearly there.
I’ve not had my weekly TH-cam fix yet so I’ll look out for your latest update! 👍. Take care, Andy
What a great looking tunnel and scenery. Great video well done.👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much 👍
Could not have picked a better consist to test. That really put the icing on the cake for me. It’s a loco on my want list and with a preorder of bachmanns new class 31 with the auto coupling next to join my fleet once bachmann add the same magic to the Deltic it’s a must own. Just this moment I’m working a similar problematic incline on the back scene where the Lower level focus is a petroleum depot. I have a very very narrow section so retaining wall means I can’t use the stone I want to use instead I think I will have to use the chooch flexible retaining wall and add some personalization then pass a canal and will also need to create a rather steep embankment but got some tremendous thumb height shrubs and bushes that will give a seamless approach. I find to get even better interest is to really nail line side details like an elevated and or platform mounted comms cabinet that shows the steepness and makes use of what can be a darn awkward tight pickle of a problem. Great stuff stay safe.
Thank you. Wow, sounds like you’re in the midst of some major building. Love the idea of highlighting the steepness of the embankments. Take care, Andy
Loving the process on every vid, what about a brewery or milk where empty field is then can still you the crossing
Great idea! 👍
Great to see your progress, I'm currently building my layout and it's so useful to watch what others are doing, thank's for taking the time to film all this! PS I'm another hoarder of little offcuts, loads of them!
Thank you. Like it, you just never know when you might need something! 👍
The new retaining wall is looking good. The field would look more interesting with an old WWII radio tower.
Thanks. Yes, I’m leaning towards some kind of derelict structure in that area 👍
@@Grandadstrainroom-pn3tt maybe an old dilapidated barn with a beat-up biplane in it.
keep up the fantastic work, seeing your videos in my feed always brightens my day.
Thanks very much ☺️
Looking really good. And I too have several containers full of offcuts of various things. The ones I use most often are rectangles of wood from the laser cutter, usually to pack or fill an awkward gap somewhere.
Thank you Martyn. I just know the minute I throw them away I would need some type of off cut!!
I am really enjoying your videos. Nice presentation. Nice results.
Thank you very much ☺️
i would add a signal just before tunnel entrance
Good idea! 👍
Excellent work. It all looks very realistic.
Thank you 👍
Brilliant video
Thank you 👍
Put a small farm house/farm in the gap, abandoned ruins or an old croft?
Thanks. Yes, I am thinking a derelict farm 👍
I put a farmhouse and stable
That’s exactly what I’m thinking - maybe a derelict one! 👍
