[@WardleRestorations]

That platform is stunning! Great work on the difficult curve to, you have more patience than me 😆👍🚂

[@DudleyCentral]

Thanks! Ahaa my patience was certainly tested, halfway through I was wondering what on earth had I started! 😂

[@kitchenhamfarm]

nice platform good tip using rocket glue for metcalfe slabs as not really that sticky, as after a while they will come unstuck...............tony

[@DudleyCentral]

Thanks Tony! Yes the adhesive on the slabs just doesn't cut it in my opinion but with Roket I've had no issues

[@slightlybelowaveragetrains1072]

Great video, thank you. I am just about to reach the stage on an extension to my layout where I am building the platform. I was just going to buy a Metcalfe kit but have been inspired to try this now. Thanks, again. Robert

[@DudleyCentral]

I'm really glad you enjoyed it Robert! I had a lot of fun building them like this. The method isn't much different from building a metcalfe kit, but I feel that adding the plastikard and slabs bring the card platforms to life. I look forward to seeing it on your layout! Joe

[@Locoforce]

that looks brilliant! keep up the great content - cheers, adam

[@DudleyCentral]

Thanks Adam! Really appreciate that! Joe

[@Terrain_Craft_Chronicles]

What a fantastic job, loving those slab packs... very realistic! What is the glue you are using?

[@DudleyCentral]

Thanks Sean. I use Roket Card Glue, a little pricey but extremely reliable. Definitely the best stuff for card modelling

[@bennickss]

Why are you using large-pins to hold down the track? Hornby does do actual track pins that actually almost invisible.

[@DudleyCentral]

Much cheaper to use drawing pins, which will be removed once ballasted. Easier to move track aswell if I'm not happy with the current track alignment. Cheers, Joe

[@bennickss]

Dudley Central ok.
