I'm happy to report that the layout's been put up ahead of the outing to Uckfield and all is well. I took the opportunity of giving the scenery a bit of a refresh, adding some ground cover and trees as I've been using all the stuff on Cheddar anyway.
An additional hedge or two help break up the previously plain grass to the right hand end. One of my operators has very kindly provided a traction engine and trailer, hauling some timber for Clevedon Saw Mills and it'll make a nice cameo in the yard. Better than the post war Thornycroft for sure!!
Engine No 5 and the Taff Vale Coach have been given a spin and all seem to work well. Some little jobs to finish things off but I'm really pleased.
Some photos are attached. Excuse some of the bizarre angles, I'm trying to avoid showing the clutter in the rest of the railway room.
Now, have I got time to repaint the ex LSWR set into the correct livery after 15 years in the wrong one...
