DSC00210
The Flying Scotsman 2002-04-28 The Flying Scotsman up close with some plaster simulating the effects of rocks/debris between the two sets of track. The plaster will, if kept, eventually be coloured.
DSC00208
The Table 2002-04-28 The current state of the table. The foliage in the previous two pictures is centre right. The white splotches are experiments with two types of plaster, partly to hold the track in place (and level) and partly for scenic effect.
DSC00207
The first scenery #2 2002-04-28 More of that foliage.

The Table Again 2002-02-18 Wandering through Home Depot looking for "Mud coloured paint" we stumbled across a returned tin of Ralph Lauren paint that has a stone-like texture and was coloured as in the picture. Whilst not perfectly level, the surface is good enough to run the two locos pictured.
