“If you trains ever derail in a tunnel, it’s a real pain.

Get round it by using an old picture frame in the scenery. Bin the glass and use the frame and the backing, face down, in the scenery.

Just take the backing sheet of to get inside your tunnel – and as most railroad layouts have bushes, fences or vegetation it’s easy to hide the ‘ridge’ of your frame.”

…well it’s the same reason: they work!

If you’ve seen my earlier posts you’ll see I’m a fan of the simple layout. A railroad should look like scenery with some track in it – not the other way round.

So this caught my eye – and demonstrates the point well.
