Every
time I attend a model railway show, I look for detailing parts that can add something to my layout. In 2023 I was fortunate to attend the Kleinserie event at Bauma, Switzerland, and there I picked up a model water fountain from the Swiss Model Rail stand (CHF 15, www.swissmodelrail.ch). This measures just 22mm x 7mm x 2mm and it was crying out for some water to be added and a water flow into the trough. I set myself the challenge of attempting to make the water flow, and that is when one of our pets gave me the answer to how to do it.
