Barrow Road - S4 AGM Bristol

I have finished the rear elevation of the shed by adding a section to the wall to match with the end wall of the Workshop. This has been achieved by glueing a shaped piece of mdf to the top of the wall and overlaying a piece of Rowmark etched with 'english bond' brickwork. This is a modification to the kit as supplied. Also added for the first time is a shaped piece of clear 3mm thick acrylic fixed to the edge of the board to protect the sectioned wall of the Roundhouse.

 

As the layout is due for its first outing - The Scalefour Society AGM - I decided to do a test assembly. The show is on saturday 5th June 2010 at St Martins Church Hall, St Martins Road, Knowle, Bristol BS4 2ND with the doors opening at 10.00 am and closing at 16.00.

 

Here are a few photos taken today to show the latest developements.

I've run out of superlatives. When it's done, I'm going to feel like I actually DID get to go round...........

Don't normally bother with AGM's - but I'll definitely be there this year - I just can't wait to see this in the flesh! Do you need any visiting locos?

Hi Dave,

 

You are most welcome to bring some of your excellent locos especially for photographic purposes. Still not much track laid as I still need to do the outside pits but extra locos displayed on the layout would be appreciated. See you next Saturday.

I'm off to Railex this weekend to help operate Clinkerford with John Darch - are you going?

How come I keep missing all these wonderful blogs? That is really looking rather special. Can't make the AGM this year, but I hope I'll see it soon. You never know, I might build Holbeck yet! :)

I am taking a couple of the boards, including the shed one, to Scaleforum this year as part of a demonstration of BR 1950/60s modelling - maybe you can see it there.

 

Now Holbeck - that sounds interesting.

Robin,

 

I'll be there on Sunday (helping restore a real loco (35006) on Saturday). I'll make sure to say "Hello". Have a good week-end.
