    To get to Britain and ride a variety of trains across England, Wales and Scotland - both current and preserved. Attend a couple of exhibitions, both large and small. Couple that with all the things my wife would like to see and I figure should only take a year or so.

    I'm totally blown away. Every thing "works" and even in the small space with all you have going on, the scenery dominates - just as in real life. I really do like your use of the black foamboard - provides and excellent foundation while at the same time "framing" the scene without being overpowering. EXCELLENT!

    I like your concept - should work well with the size of the box. Ok, I have to add - good thing this isn't a cheese box challenge.

    I believe that's what I was saying . . albeit a bit tongue in cheek.

    Looks like there is an opportunity here for someone to start a sound decoder company. Charge a fair price, don't do the rip-off Britain thing and there will be piles of profit to be made. Why hasn't someone done that yet?

    My mom taught me . . . measure twice, cut once. My method . . . Cut twice and it's still too short.

    No fair using actual photographs taken at the station several decades ago. Seriously . .. . fantastic modelling indeed. Each part of that scene - structure, locomotive, coaches, platform, track, figures (heck even the weathering on the vehicle tires!) etc etc - are masterpieces in their own right . . added up? WOW!

    But you're the one that used it effectively. Go ahead and take the bow! Note: edit to correct a typo

    I especially like the way the backdrop (backscene) works on this and adds to the overall atmosphere. So often a photographic backdrop "clashes" with the modeled section in front because of the difference in level of detail. Jerry, you, to use a phrase, nailed it. (You should change the name to "Lookslyka Yard.") Great job!

    Well done!

    And guess which is the one bit that you can't find?
