RUSPER MODEL RAILWAY CLUB

Market:  The roof of the market is the cover of a battery pack or kit pack (I can't remember which). The stalls under it are a variety of things. Most are made from plastic offcuts and the separate stalls are kits.

School:   This was made and supplied by Dennis. It is a card kit and has children and teacher. Thank you, Dennis.  He has also helped with Bridge Side corner and at the tunnel end. He also supplied the workers, cottages and camping coach, and finished off the edge of the baseboard. Smallfield is nearly finished.

The Signals:

The basis of these are shop bought but if it was not suitable for the site I have changed parts such as the post/platform, which is plastic, the platform support on the junction signals and an additional distant on the starter frame.

Transport:

It's a pity firms don't sell cart wheels separately, like they do coach /wagon wheels in plastic as when I made the milk cart I had to use the ones from the market stalls.  The Brewery Drey uses the stall platform and wheels with extra Plastruct.  The undertaker’s hearse has a coffin cover made from plastic off a battery cover. The coffin is balsa wood.

The Tunnel Mouth:

The backscene is painted plywood with a hole cut out for trains to pass. The tunnel mouth is a take on Box Tunnel - it is made of foam board covered with stone paper.

The Aqueduct:

This is also made of foam board with stone paper covering and clear plastic for the water with a cardboard kit narrowboat. The safety fence is constructed out of Plastruct.

The Walls and Fencing:

Walls are foam board with brick paper covering and the wire between the piers is a netting of sorts. Fencing is made of a plastic frame with strips of plastic to represent featheredging.  It is painted matt black for a creosote colour.
