Just wondering what other members do with their in-car line diagrams and such. Have you got any special mounting arrangements?
Of the ones I have, I've simply blu tacked them to the wall. Bit ungainly, but it works. I've also kept the original backing where possible as it's a far easier surface to mount to.
Also curious about what you guys do when you have a map without the backing (i.e. pulled from a train in-service). I recently acquired 3 such diagrams from the last C Stock (with permission, of course). I tried to re-back them with greaseproof paper, which was a hassle, and I didn't realise I made a critical mistake in backing choice until I found out that blu tack doesn't stick to baking sheets, so I had to jerry rig it with regular paper and double sided tape. If you were in my position, what would you have done?
