  1. Can’t wait to see your build start Jerry.
  2. Hi James thanks for your nice comments. Yes the tarps and wagon will be weathered. It’s great what you can achieve with a small piece of plank. Im going to take better pictures preferably outdoors tomorrow. I’m thinking of adding a small yard lamp with LED. Once that and the sacks are finished I can call it a finished piece.
  3. Les nice scratch building, this is starting to look good.
  4. This morning the workshop exterior has been painted and weathered. Window frame and glass have been fitted, just need to paint up the frames.
  5. James if it were me I would stick with your plank of wood, so many themes could be achieved but I like what you are planning. Just be careful though as you might have a plan fixed in your mind but then your mind plays tricks with you and before you know it you have tons of ideas.
  6. Cheers Geoff for the comments. I know the old building will take quite a bit of the base space up, but leading into the workshop will be a track and a track running along the side of the workshop where the wagon will be being repaired.
  7. First of all Jerry happy birthday for the other day. I think it’s always great to do some research on the layout or area you are trying to build. Look forward to more progress soon.
  8. Les I’m starting to become a fan of your little round layout, I’m looking forward to this build.
  9. James you should be able to make a great track layout with the track you have.
  10. James an idea with the gap. You could put a bridge of some kind in that gap with the track running under and may be a farm track or road on the bridge.
  11. James it’s amazing what kind of layout you can build in a box. I look forward to your plans and progress.
  12. Mike nice start to one of the structures.
  13. Started work on the old workshop building, messy and fun. Has been sanded over this evening look better now. Tomorrow will fit the windows and frames.
  14. This sounds like an interesting theme. Will be looking forward to seeing your scratch built excavator. I like the work you have done on the wagon.
  15. Preservation of an old wagon. A railway restoration yard, where an old wagon will be partly preserved. Planks will be missing and hopefully the inside frame work will be visible. One wagon. (Goods van, brake van or a mineral wagon) Peco oo gauge track Rusty railway items Security fencing, ballast, foliage and workmen.
  16. Les this is a lovely little layout and the loco and wagons run well on this layout.
  17. Geoff this sounds and looks like an interesting little challenge.
  18. The scrap or scrap heap can bring up some interesting discussions. All the information is most helpful.
  19. Stu this looks like the beginnings of another one of your great builds. Looking forward to seeing this progress.
  20. A really nice job on the wagons Luke. The bombs you have added just great.
  21. Hi Jerry I’m not really fussed about having a backscene. I’m still waiting on my sacks and dustbins arriving and I’m thinking of adding some black weathering powder around the coal staithe area. I thinking of adding a tree on the grassed area on the left of the layout. But for now I’m making my own tarp for one of the wagons.
  22. Morning fellow modellers. I have taken a few outdoor shots of my layout with a few bits of rusted scrap in place. I’m still waiting for dustbins and coal sacks to arrive.
