Tidenham Tunnel on my old Netherhope Halt diorama. l

I just had a banner ad at the top of the page for a Devon MP. "See what 'so and so' has been doing for you". A 'political' ad....?

End of the line at Parkend Marsh Sidings.

Another visitor to the sidings. Not very F.O.D. though! It will have three-link couplings fitted, re-wheeled and maybe a new chassis will be built for it. It is destined for another layout yet to be started properly. When P4ed it might get occasionally transferred to Callow Lane!

New arrival!

It certainly isn't...but I don't care....!

Ian, it's a beautifully constructed model from Mike's range (not by me, I hasten to add!) and works like a Swiss watch.

Is there now not an option to edit or delete PMs if a mistake is made before sending? Knowing me, I'm probably missing something!

I hadn't thought of it like that Tim! The old diorama was 'Netherhope Halt'
