Well the wait is over as the glue has dried on my scenery sub-base and, just as I predicted, it has enough integral strength to be lifted and moved about. Phew!!!!
Moving it into its place the form of the landscape begins to take shape.
I then constructed the small sub-base for the front of the baseboard. Using off cuts of material from the previous two sub-bases, it was glued together and then left to dry before cutting to shape.
The final piece of the scenery was the central pillar, theoretically left when the cutting through the hill was made to route the railway - well that is what would have happened in real life.
With all that done the whole scene of a cutting comes into clarity - well to me anyway! I need to do some carving now to geth the final contours and then start the long process of making it actually look like a piece of UK countryside rather than part of the Artic!
