I like those arches. They remind me of an engineering works that I visited a few times. Like several other visitors I wondered why the old style light switches were all mounted upside down. Apparently the trains rumbling overhead sometimes caused any in the up position to move down. With down for on the key holder got fed up of being disturbed late at night by the police asking for access to investigate suspected intruders!

Thanks Neil..
Started on the ramp today.. Lots of pondering required..
And we have gone green on the grass cutting.

[mike]

They are very effective.

Very impressive! It looks so realistic. So much to see.

BTW I love how the neighbors do their best to blend their building in to your railway ;-)

As Mike says a GRS Kit, mine was a RTR one at a knock down price on a trip to GRS that I could not resist. Been chipped up and lettered up for a fictional East German Loco. Massoth Chip added as well with Alco Sounds. Chassis from a US Source that GRS Supply. Hope you do not mind me posting here Mike.
