Chris those photos look great. Getting a handle on how to do things like posting pictures does take a little time. Saltfleet does look good. Can you give a description of what where when?

Lovely character. I particularly like the chap perusing the notice board :-)

Hi Chris

Very nice atmosphere - I'm particularly impressed by the weed-strewn track - any chance of a posting on the how and what?

Regards
Chris

Hi all
thanks for the encouraging comments.A description of the ideas that led to SALTFLEET and the brief technical splurge is posted on the forum as NEW TO P4 in the members lounge.The scenics are a combination of stactic grass and hanging basket liner which a first tried about 15 years ago.The skaledale buildings are gifts from my children for birthdays and christmas.Much of the scenic work was achieved with the help of Peter Siddell who is also a member of the St Neots MRC.Some others are credited in the original article.Saltfleet is going to the open day at TRAINS4U our model shop in Peterborough.Th backscene is still being worked on .
Regards
Chris
