I have now painted the embankments and undulations with a slightly diluted coat of earth coloured Emulsion paint, I use this paint as it accepts PVA well and there is no reaction with Enamel paint.

I then painted the Pond and the River with a dark green enamel -BR Green in fact!

I have started to ballast some straight track using a dispenser designed for the purpose – the points I will do by hand. I am using Noch N Gauge Granite Ballast. Next step will be wetting an area and then with a dropper add 50-50 PVA and water, plus a drop of washing up liquid.
