    I mentioned in an earlier thread taking a slightly different approach by creating a hanging frame in the form & livery of a backbox & inserting the game flyer.

    Just completed a frame for my Raceway but also included x2 Dinky cars (a Talbot Lago & HWM) from the same Dinky series of those in the animated backbox.

    Cars are held by magnets so cars can be removed if my Grandsons want to play with them as often happens.

    This thread has spurred me into get crackin'. Just completed a couple of elevated 'flyer' toppers for my two woodrails.

    Purchased lengths of rectangular & square pine moulding; glued together to form a framing profile; routed either side of the top face to broadly replicate the woodrail backbox; then cut to frame lengths & glued within a framing jig.

    Stained the frame with maple stain; sprayed the inner black profile; & 3 coats of clear. Cut glass obtained from the recycling centre & fabricated a backing board; installed retaining clips, hook & chain.
