Subsidence on the model

Lately I have observed we seem to have subsidence in the village area of the layout, this is where there is a lift out section to allow acess to the rear of the layout. I constructed it on 4mm foamboard and this has warped so it will have to be replaced.

I will be replacing it with a piece of hardboard with a scrap of MDF board on the rear to strengthen it further.
Also the roadway faded so I will be replacing these and adding an extra building I bought ast a recent toy and train fair.
Just waitng for the glue to set on the MDF and the paint to dry on the hardboard, then I can continue. Watch this space.

Update 2017, the factory has moved and a butcher's shop has been located where the factory used to be.

    The hardboard solution did not work either, so it had now been replaced with a piece of 12mm MDF. I don't think that will sag.
