NEWS FROM NEW ZEALAND

Eh I just decided to call it this for no reason other than I live here

 

ANYWAY moving on.

 

I haven't posted in a while for what ever reason so I might as well tell whoever reads these what will be happening within the next month or so as not to make anyone who may be keeping up with this die of boredom.

 

1. Tugboat fleet.

I am continuing work on a tugboat fleet I have and I will make a whole blog entry about that. (if I am not lazy)20190618_072359.jpg.4e4d5c3af6690b772fc3fb259da5deb1.jpg

Here is an unfinished one20190619_200711(1).jpg.9a13dba7debfbf4ba29e571ef90ba85f.jpg

2. Castles.

I built a tiny part of a castle on one of the corners of my railway and am planning on building a full one that I can plonk down at any time to break up the background. (once again I should make a blog entry on this but I will do it in a couple weeks.

 

3. Class 47.

I have a Lima class 47 coming in the mail and I might share my thoughts on that once it gets here. (it will probably be a tiny post as it is my favorite class of diesel)

 

4.  EXCITING

Alright. This is the big news.

I have recently become a volunteer at my local preservation society (its not a railway as much as it is a ring of standard gauge track chucked around a huge field with museums , Historical buildings, workshops, lots of pine trees and an engine shed.

I don't know if I should give out its name as for reasons other than it is the only "railway" close to where I live that I can drive to.

BUT it has a couple of steam engines and in the museum there is a group (two people) building a model railway and they are looking for members.

 

So yah boy (never going to say/write that again...... probably) is going to ask if I can help out.

and as I have a school break coming up I will be able to head down there for every day they are in. (they are only in on Fridays and on open days for the railway. But of course school is on Friday) So I will be able to go there for three days and work on the model railway and get into the workshops to help work on and run the engines on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

 

So yeah.

Stuff.

Hopefully.

Maybe.

Possibly.

 

Oh and one last thing.

I will be making a Topic thingy for modelling so I can post little random things that I am working on without having to take the time to make a blog post and whoever reads these and wants to do or is already doing something to do with models in general can post on.

If that makes any sense.
