A brief update tonight, having spent a fabulous day on the 1:1 scale Severn Valley Railway. There are few places in the world these days where one Manor class will take you uphill in the morning and another one comes to fetch you in the afternoon. Superb!

Here is the mini Victoria Bridge in situ, a fantastic advert for N gauge as it fits in all this space to run a realistic length train ( eight carriages and a loco just fit!) and yet can be carried around under one arm.

...that is just the scenic bit, but still, thank you 'N'!...

And further into the world of the small, progress on my 1:450 scale 'Bubble Car'... still needs some fettling!
