Well, things are proceeding slowly, but reasonably succesfully, with the miniature N gauge Severn Valley diorama, at least in terms of poplutating it with stock:

Ivana after her 'Dapol Facelift', with a little more paint, numbers and a ham fisted attempt at subtle weathering:

Not bad considering her humble N gauge beginnings!

I am also quite pleased with my 'toplight carriages': a mixture of old Farish bits, windows and roof (on the third class carriage.. the one with more doors) from Ultima, sides printed from adapted photos taken on the SVR... and last but by no means least, N brass doorhandles!
