  1. What's the expectation for kids attending the show at the weekend? Just as per govmt guidelines which to my knowledge is over 12s require masks but not below 12?
  2. Good work Martin, sounds like you had a bit of a block with track laying but looks like you got clear of that and hopefully now that lets you progress onto more enjoyable stuff.
  3. superb layout, I particularly like the concrete area around the shed
  4. good to see you pass what must feel like a bit of a milestone Iain. Look forward to the next stages
  5. Really capturing the right feel here Martin, and making good steady progress
  6. Lovely work Martin, sorry to see you switch scales I suppose as it was always interesting to see what you came up with in 2mm. However its still great to see what you are up to in whatever scale.
  7. Anyone know if these guys are still on the go, their facebook page has a post from 2020 I think (I'm not on facebook) but not seen anything more recent than that. Got some of their ballast for N gauge some some time ago and I really would like more.
  8. Hi Ben I did actually manage to slide out the three wagon boxes OK although it was very tight although I take your point about that being somewhat necessary. The rip occurred when trying to insert the wagons back in. I bought 3 packs of 3 but I've yet to try the second and third packages just in case I was missing something. As I say not the end of the world for me as the sleeve isn't't hugely of interest to me personally but perhaps for others it might.
  9. Very happy to receive my cemflos the other day. As others have said these are truly superb, and have a great feel to them weight wise, just right. I'm looking forward to getting these weathered in due course but it does seem a shame in some ways. Only grump is having destroyed one of the sleeves already, is there a technique to getting the wagons in and out. I managed to remove the first 3 wagons from their sleeve but managed to rip the sleeve on putting them back in. Not the end of the world I don't suppose.
  10. Great progress here Iain, looks like you are building up a bit of momentum here and heading quickly towards something that's operational to some degree. Great work.
  11. nice work Iain, looks like you've done a good job on what I find a very unenjoyable part of layout building
  12. Smallwonder, that's an incredible video, much better quality than most I've seen from that era.
  13. smashing pictures and a nice variety of weathered stock on display
  14. The pub and the paper shop are superb as well. Really like the Edinburgh Evening news markings, superbly observed.
  15. Agree with Roddy, very definitely suggestive of the shore along at Granton. Additionally the pub on the corner is very suggestive of many establishment along the whole of the Leith and shore area and the buses tell their own story. Perhaps a couple of 'trainspotters' could complete the scene, although not the type with pads and pens. More the Irvine Welsh type trainspotters.
