Can people stop announcing things for 5 minutes so I can catch up!

Putting salt in chocolate.

Who thought THAT was a good idea?

Well i decided to show how far i have come since my question about Lynton Goods and Engine shed.

I purchased some 6mm Birch ply and had it cut into strips and one sheet into 4 pieces 2ft wide.

From this i made up 2 4ft boards covered them with cork tiles and began to plan my layout.

This is just one of the boards.

I decided on Lynton station using the Bachmann model as the pivotably point of the layout. Obviously not the correct station building but its a start. 

I also planned in a lighting valace at this stage.

Next came the track laying and colouring of the track. Here you can see that a section at the rear was left for the fiddle yard..

After testing and ballasting  basic sceney was modelled.

First a scratch-built engine shed then a scratch-built goods shed.

Part 2 to follow.

The race is long, but in the end, it is only with yourself! 

Why do so many threads feel like arguments these days.

What happened to modelling and giving each other encouragement?
