Very atmospheric photos as usual!

As for the sunlight streaming through smoke, I wonder if it would help to concentrate both things, ie concentrate the light source in more direct sources of light (spotlights) and adding more (thicker) smoke? Just a thought though, I can imagine it is tricky to get right.

BTW, while there is no sunlight effect, there's use of a smoke machine here: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php/blog/85/entry-1805-a-few-old-photographs-i-found-in-a-drawer/

Hi Mikkel

Thanks for the comment and link - some fabulous shots of locos outside the sheds - like the story behind the scene as well.

I'll have a play around with the spot lights and smoke density - trying to model the real world in 4mm is a tough business when it comes to natural sunlight effects!

Cheers again, Mike

Hi GWRfan

Thanks for the compliment. This weekend is the target for setting it up with trains so pics then I hope. I'm pleased with the overall effect, but if you were to put your eye down the roof you'd notice quite a few wobbly bits etc. Viewed from an angle it's a different matter, but it is an impression of a roundhouse/factory roof rather than an accurate model of one.

Regards

Mike
