A reminder,of how it should look.

Today,see's another, Can O' Pea being opened. Platform 2/3 canopy has been dismantled and discarded, the base material was incorrect,plus it was 2mm too high, once I had received the "Freebs" built Platform 1.

Thank you, slowly,slowly,to regenerate the interest in the project, for all your support. I did have an appointment with an archytech and suryvaror, but they seem to have been n gone orf to Malta. Leaving behind the infamous tripod. The following is only a rough setting up, to quell the fears of the archytech Runsasrequired

Still waiting !

It's a waiting game.

A few more today, some am unsure.

Moving on ,

A few additions to Platform 1, today.

In the first 10 in the Q yesterday, purchased what I required, caught up with Kevin,Coastal Dcc, Greg, Brian, etc. All round a good show,to break up the winter drudge, Have a good dY today,everyone.

Maybe,we will be the first to greet you, around 0915.

Roughly placed,last week. Missing,is an extension to the brick wall to the low relief building, one of Richards lamp standards, a low relief tree and low relief fencing to the bridge, all placed along that strip of platform. Most of the items above,have yet to be made,by me. Am off to the Canterbury Model Railway Exhibition in the morning.

To me it's ok, Proof Todd Merge Sky v2 by David Todd 2012, on Flickr

Thanks Freebs your obs,are most appreciated. Now, John at ID backscene s,has sent me a proof,after merging all photo sections, He is going to delete the sky and put a new one in place, the white bits to take care of. So,can anyone see anything out of proportion ?

Thanks for the quick reply Jack .

Are, "Layouts4U" attending, please ? It is in his Exhibtion Dairy.

Andrew F Aye up David. WIll you be having some kind of back-scene behind Priory station or leaving it black? I'm interested to see the overall effect but I prefer a light back-scene myself, but I guess you know what you're doing. Taken this morning Andrew F.

Andy, Long time no see. Click the photo, enlarge,you will see the brickwork is yellow stock. Will put up some blackout pics when I finish. Meanwhile, I found a rough copy,of Priory backscene that" Runs as required" printed orff. Am sending it to John at IDbackscenes, he say would scan it,make it a whole and a few other tweeks,with his marvelous printing machine ! Like most other things,on the layout, these are just rough standing. P1300018 by David Todd 2012, on Flickr
