The more the temptation is taking hold to do something based on the old railway through the valley.

After being out on a job yesterday, and taking a couple of shots of the old track area that ran through the middle of the farm I was working on, and out across a bridge, I'm staring at the local history pages and mumbling to myself (not a good sign, as when mumbles happen, so do crazy projects). And when the photos come off the camera like the one attached below, it doesn't sway the mind against in the slightest...

Add in to the mix, the explosive combination of some of the things that used to run up here being available in RTR and kit, then I'm seriously trying not to tempt myself with it...

Though, on to other things first. I've got a load of track down, and doodles on the board for scenic areas on the current one, and I really must crack in to that now I've a free weekend (unless something bad kicks off, and my Nikon is required 'out there'), and the other half breathing down my neck asking "why isn't it finished yet?"

The answer to why it hasn't progressed much in a few days, well, that's down to a pair of 1980's Poole-era Farish, and both of them having a full strip and rebuild, which was a waste of time in my eyes, because they don't run or sound any better. Are my rose tinted glasses not working as they used to, or were they really that poor in running capabilities and with the noise they kick out?

Enough of the mumbles, grumbles and generally boring prattle (sorry!), and time to go and buy a new printer as the accounts department decided in it's infinite wisdom cheap cartridges were the way forward...
