Getting ready for Leeds this weekend!

Hi

As we are at Leeds this weekend (and off to the Lakes for a couple of days from tomorrow - Great timing!!) Thought it was about time to get Thorne Yard out of storage and rectify the little list of jobs to do after its last exhibition at Thirsk!!

Also I've been working on a couple of new bits for the show - Namely a Backscene (so we can hide!) And a factory back to hide the backscene!!

Well the work is 90% done so I've grabbed a couple of snaps! (sorry about the poor quality but the big camera is away for a service with me being off work for a week!)

I'll post some more when I get the time before during and after the exhibition!

Regards

 

Dave

Hi Dave,

The layout is looking great I like the loco shed. Who make the blue crates? the clutter around the shed really brings it to life.

 

Cheers Peter,

Hi Peter

thanks for the comments - the parts crates are A1 models, a bit fiddly to solder together but well worth it when they're done! Can't remember how much they are but only a couple of quid a pack of 5 if I remember correctly! I've got a load more half done to go on the back of a Bedford TK as a delivery of parts includind brake shoes and coupling links!

Hi Dave

 

We are at Leeds with Moor Street - Didnt realise you were going too, look forward to seeing your layout in the flesh.

 

Cheers

Hi jim

 

Saw Moor Street was there and wondered if you'd be going! Come and chat but let us get over the Satirday morning gremlins first though!!! No pressure now then!!!

 

Best Regards

Looks tremendous with the factory now in situ. But how will my S&T van fit under the water tower?. Cant wait till saturday to get those locos fired up.
