Title: Laying out the marshaling yard for my 1/72 WW2 terrain board
Post by: Ferb on 25 October 2013, 02:56:44 PM
Hi all,

As most of the stuff I need for the railway marshaling yard part of my WW2 board has now arrived I thought it was time to lay it all out and see how it looks. I intend to base everything on a hardboard sheet with the 'rough' side up which I will paint grey and weather to represent the rail yard itself. I will then permanently attach the track to the hardboard but I haven't decided yet whether I'm going to base the buildings or just place them on the board as they are now.

More details can be found on my blog (http://ferbsfightingforces.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/laying-out-marshaling-yard-for-my-172.html).

Nice board!

IF the buildings are sturdy enough i would not base them. This way they blend in very nicely!

Just my two cents though.


This reminds me of the bucketload of 1/72 troops of revell i have lying about. Have them since 99-2000 and haven't done cr*p with them lol.

Ah the joys of a big unpainted pile  :o
