Back to ballasting! Managed to finish the track to the branch terminus. First an atmospheric view:

The buildings are the well known Hornby Skaledale, whilst the rolling stock are a Dapol 14xx, Mainline autocoach and a Lima railcar on a Hornby chassis (I don't like the colour of the Hornby body shell).

And for comparison, an earlier view showing the layout under construction with an Airfix 14xx and some Mainline wagons in evidence:

Very nice. I especially like the top photo. The Hornby buildings work well here, I think. Interesting to see how the elements go well together, although nothing has been weathered/painted yet. Sometimes things just fit together, but it takes a good eye like yours to make them do it!

Thank you for those kind words. I shall bear in mind your comments about weathering. I must compliment yourself on your attention to detail with your own modelling. Even with no sunshine and lots of rain there are still not enough hours in the day to finish what are essentially still basic tasks.
