Great picture Barry - not my era or area of knowledge, but can’t help to be impressed by the power of such large steam locos.

Many thanks for all of the positive comments. I fear Wykeham is becoming more of a "diorama" than a layout. I still need to experiment with the static grass - I'm worried about making a mess of it.

Barry, time to bite the bullet!
Test it on an odd piece of plywood or similar and follow the step by step instructions - it will be fine.

I never knew Nature 'was perfect'.

As Steve says 'Bite the bullet.'
Have fun with the 'static grass'. I bet you will surprise yourself with the result.
