Newbie - District 22 - Downtown L.A. (A table top railway)

Wow!
I apologize for taking up so much space, more-or-less hijacking the thread ... I just hope it was helpful to at least one person.

No apology needed, biL; you hijack away......this is exactly the sort of input I crave....... it's the only way I'm going to learn and prevent further false starts, so thanks for sharing.

Interestingly, your method for staining the ties......apologies by the way for my misnomer (sleepers) - when will I ever get used to the fact that I'm a railroader now ? (gotta stop spelling modeling with two 'l's too ) ..... is the same as that used by Iain Rice except that he uses an old tobacco tin for the purpose. Gret idea, but in my case, I'll have to use paint due to the PCB ties in between :cry:

Still, it's great to see how you achieved the look.

By the way, as regards the compliments: credit where credit's due, biL

Best wishes,

Jonte
