RAILS TO BLACK ROCK A blog about the construction of a 5.5mm scale model of a fictitious Ffestiniog Railway branch line to Black Rock Sands via Borth y gest. This was a railway that was proposed in real life but never built. Although a model railway, the model has an equal focus on the distinctive architecture of North Wales.The picture above gives an overall view of the area of the village being modelled.

The steps down to the first cellar have also been completed. There is a lovely contrast in wall textures between the dresses stone frontage and the rough slate retaining walls to the courtyard. These have been painted to represent a weathered lime wash effect. Just the doors to the store room to be made and some suitable household items added. I think an old tin bath would really set the seen along with a dolly tub and poster- now I don't suppose they are available in 5.5mm scale!!
