Give it your best shot Folk's,,,,

Here's my little job to keep the kid's happy during the half term school holiday
the base is 3/4 waterproof chipboard with 2x2" battens to give it some ridgidity, the track is a mixture of Hornby (curves) and Peco flextrack, it only took a couple of evenings to do, the next job is a backdrop made from 3/16" masonite painted blue, as long as the kid's are happy, i'm happy
