So, it's been a while!  But today I finally got around to adding the Scrap Merchant Yard to the layout.  It existed on a previous layout, which I decided to dismantle and "rejig."

I enjoyed doing this area of the layout today, but it is by no means finished.

The goods shed (adopted by the merchant) is just a temporary fixture, I bought this model second hand and would like to repaint it.

I have yet to add a surface to the area outside of the engine shed (also reappropriated by the scrap yard.)  

For the pictures I have "plonked" some trees in situ, but will landscape more deliberately in the future.  There is an incomplete tyre heap that needs attending to as well.

As for the rest of the layout, I'm waiting on parts for the traverser, also I have to find a wide platform section in order to complete the station and I need to have a play with kitbashing my Kestrel Station Kit, so as to neatly fit it into the corner of the layout.  Along with various other jobs(!)

In the meantime, here's some pics...
