The mountains on this model railroad will be constructed pretty much the same way they did it in the 40's. I am weaving strips of cardboard "strips" to create the armature system that will support two or three layers of plaster cloth (plaster fused with gauze) when all the plaster cloth is dry and complete the result will be a thin and hollow yet very strong shell of a mountain. This allows us access inside the mountains for any derailments. I then willincorporate plaster rock castings into the hills to look just like rock outcroppings that one may see in Eastern Washington.
