After finishing our work last sunday (see part 19) we realized that we have forgotten to create ramps for the railway crossing.
So I bought filler on Monday. On tuesday we created the ramps. As you can see we had to destroy some of the work we did the weekend before.
On Wednesday we were already able to re-paint all "asphalt" areas with universal craft paint.
Today I reconstructed all grass and sand areas.
The railway barriers we used are quite simple ones from Noch. After painting the road markings with white edding marker (again not perfect, but ok for now), we finally re-arranged everything: the campground, the farm, the petrol station and the supermarket.
Now half of the area of our model train is finished, but the second half is going to be more difficult since we want to build a mountain with a tunnel. But before we do that we want to install more lights! This is going to mean a lot of soldering for me...
