'Tis the season to do some modelling (at last!)

One thing I've never been happy with about the layout are the buildings along the back scene; particularly the end on terraced houses on the right hand side of the road bridge. I've decided to replace these with an industrial building. Before starting on this though I've added some supports to prop up the retaining wall (replacing the rainwater down pipes which used to hide the joints in the plastikard); also extending the wall to include the area behind the goods shed:

At the opposite end of the layout this large industrial building, which I've been building today, will be installed at the end of the sidings. I'd previously extended these sidings through into the fiddle yard, thinking this would increase operating potential, but found that this wasn't the case; so now I need to replace the bufferstops I demolished earlier in the year (with some of those nice GWR pattern ones from Mainly Trains).
