Hi all,

Somewhat slow progress through this year. The engine shed is virtually complete, just a couple of ladders to make ( from brass rod ) up the outsides of the wall and a bit more weathering.

Earlier on in the year i added some internal detail to the shed and also fitted lights. The four corner platforms were also made using plasticard for the platforms and brass rod for the handrails. Everything plugs into it`s position so can be stored easily to prevent any accidents when not in use

The shed floor has been filled in now to complete the internal pits with the wooden extensions beyond the concrete bases for the water columns.

The black electrical wire on the roof is my representation of a hosepipe, ( for cleaning the top lights!)

Iv`e also spent time building the wall down the back edge of the layout ( all 17ft of it ) which will have half relieve buildings between that and the back scene.

Iv`e also built another aquaduct (modellers license ) which is purely to give me some sort of scenic break at that end. I v`e attached ( hopefully ) some pictures.

All the best for the New Year.

Jim.
