Project 17 - Exit Stage Left

The problem at the west end of the layout, which mimics the prototype, is that there is no bridge, tunnel, building or vegetation to disguise a gaping hole in the back scene where trains exit and enter the stage.

My solution was inspired from the airport scene at Miniatur Wunderland Hamburg where aircraft flying off scene pass through a segmented curtain of sky.

After some experimentation I settled on a curtain ribbon width of 5mm.

Noted: Wrong head code for Swanage.
