The orange fencing is a tule that is already orange. The product was found at a craft store. I cut it to look like that orange safety fencing they use as construction sites. Just like the real thing its more of a visual barrier then say chain link would be. I use other stuff for my chain link material.
As far as the bump in the road goes in ho scale that bump would be about the same as what you would experience on a highway bridge gap. The cameras angle makes the "bump" look different then in reality.
The road stripes seen in these pictures were not done by the paint pens we talked about. Those were done by another device the one we also talked about that I felt gave poor results. If you look at the first picture just before the "bump" you can see a very small amount of the striping. I used a ruler and a pencil first to draw my lines then followed up with the pens. Turned out pretty good. You just can't see much of that in those pictures. Hope that helps.
Take care!

My wife has painted some but most are Preiser figures, some are Woodland Scenics and I just bought my first set of Bachmann figures. The Bachmann ones are actually well done for the price. ![[Image: 33156_Maintenance_Worker.jpg]](http://www.bachmanntrains.com/home-usa/products/images/uploads/33156_Maintenance_Worker.jpg)
