Sorry I haven't said anything in a while, I've started a new smaller model railway but don't worry I'm still working on Typs Junction. Feel free to give me some ideas of names. It is post 2004 small country station with a heritage line. I'll be posting pictures soon!Thanks for reading this small message!

Today I was thinking about one of my favourite train stations, Bristol Temple Meads. I looked up some photos from the days back when the station was filled of British Rail HSTs and smaller units. I found some photos and saw what sort of place it was 10-20years ago.
One photo was a picture of a Virgin Voyager going through Bristol Temple Meads, this really made me think... Virgin trains don't go into Bristol. After a bit of research though I found this on Wikipedia:

Here is one of my best pictures of my model railway, please take a look at it. It includes some gauge master trees, Oxford die-cast vehicles and my beloved Hornby FGW HST in the background. Typs Junction J
Today I was thinking about ideas for my railway and I thought about the variety of card models out there. I'm quite limited since my printer prints very badly so I'm thinking about using the local library one.

I enjoy making plastic models more than card models so gaugemaster plastic kits are a good option. Anyway th
This is my first blog ever and I'd like to say a few thing. I got my first Hornby train set when I was 5 and ever since I have liked model railways. Recently I have started my first proper, detailed layout (called Typs Junction, set on the outskirts of London) and following in the footsteps of some of my favourite layouts, New Bryford, Loftus Road I have decided to go all modern traction. I'm not writing much today but look out for new posts and images soon. Typs Junction J
