I've used Baco foil before which works well.

O I see my mistake about the light bleed did not realise it did not come with lights. Sorry.

I have nearly finished lining out the brake/baggage coach with baking foil - it stops light-bleed brilliantly. I will then paint the foil with the appropriate colour.

Interesting idea to use foil to prevent light bleed.

Works well and can be attached with PVA. Not the best base for painting, but if applied thickly it usually works ok.

Thanks Peter - It now requires a short rake of 4/6-wheel coaches in SR Green :o

Lovely little Terrier, bb. As you say the 4/6 wheeled coaches will go well with it. Not the 'chunky' Railroad Southern ones I have.

Merchant Navy Class 35028 Clan Line on a short run. Click on the picture to get things moving. If you have the sound up there is a constant "rumble" from the motor - it may need more running-in or open heart surgery?
