In the first version the cow looks like it is eating the roof of the shed. I guess it could be - this little world of yours certainly has some eccentricities! No that's just a promo for the Little Muddle Light Orchestra to perform Darius Milhaud's Le Bœuf sur le toit 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile wouldn't the usual GWR practice be to run back to the nearest T/T for turning so that it hauled its train cab first ? shouldn't take longer than a week 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what the solution is but there has to be some trick with lighting that will assist (surely). Cropping would cut the truck in two and that would be silly. I feel bad now - I have mentioned the cow previously and now the shadow. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My solution is to accept it as a photograph of a model built in a very small space and that there will always be things that aren't, and cannot be, perfect. Things like cows, shadows, lamps and timetables will never spoil my enjoyment of this little piece of wonderfully imagined history. 6 6 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Limpley Stoker Posted October 1, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 1, 2020 The rumble as the Manor crosses the old viaduct is louder than we are used to. I am, as usual, enjoying the journey - the slower the better to see more of the countryside. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
