Some more ramblings from Speedlow. Whilst I have not been doing much with the layout boards I have been slowly planning and developing the quarry buildings that will be a distinctive part of the appearance firmly setting it in the limestone area of the Peak District. My original plan was to build customised versions of real buildings that I come across on my travels. But I soon realised this would be rather costly and potentially time consuming to do. Whilst I pondered what to do Christmas 2014 brought a copy of the Hornby Magazine yearbook featuring the layout they had built that included a cement works. And there was my answer - the Walthers Valley Cement kit. Plus being a plastic kit leant itself to being bashed and altered to suit. And that is what I did with that kit plus the Glacier Gravel kit as well plus another full kit plus further bits.

 

I hope the following images show you what I have been up to. I will dig out some of the other ones using the Valley Cement kit.

 

The buildings shown are from both kits plus the white plasticard building you see in the background is scratch built to suit the location on the layout.

 

Cheers Paul
