Baseboards, dirty Nellie and hammering in BRM

 

Progress continues on my NG7 layout in November's BRM. This time I'm over-engineering the baseboard using my very limited woodworking skills. 

Of course, baseboard building involved hammering nails, so on BRM TV, I'm taking a look at this most common process. 

Away from the layout, there is some weathering, using a new Hornby "Nellie" as my subject. Well, none other than Terrance Cuneo did the same back in 1963, so I'm following in his footsteps. 

Finally, a quick bit of stock building, with a Peco O16.5 wagon. 

The camera has been out again, pointed at the O gauge layout "Harbourne St Mary". 

And the wonderful O16.5 layout "Roundhay", the one that inspired my NG7 efforts. 

All this in the November 2024 issue of British Railway Modelling magazine.
