We're rushing towards the 5th birthday of my Castell Mawr layout. I'm in no real hurry to finish because what will I do then ?
It is however booked into the Milton Keynes exhibition in February 2017, so I really do have to get a move on. There is a window
of opportunity open at the moment as a large garage has become available for me so I can join all together to double check the
extent of work needing to be done.

Thought I'd include the odd picture since my last Blog posting back in June .......... Look almost the end of August now where has that
time gone ?

One of my favourite pictures, just a rural road scene with background tracks.
This was taken outdoors in decent light

While the basic layout is quite boring, just a big twin track oval I have tried not to cram, giving space for each element. I do find
stations with just enough room for 4 coaches frustrating as they can't represent the space actually taken.

One of my other problems is the space usually wasted with big non-scenic fiddleyards. I have made a scene out of the back straight
rather than just bare boards. The sidings are crammed in rather than a 10 ft spacing, but why waste the opportunity ?

Dinners ready - must go !!
