Jerry1975 Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 Hi Everyone. I managed a bit more on the layout this evening, all track is laid now. I had to cut through the top bit as my loco wouldn't quite fit under but I will disguise this with the bridge. Here is a photo: The water tower is not permanent, just trying out a few things. More soon. Jerry. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry1975 Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 Thanks guys for your replies, very kind. Hi Everyone. I have managed to do a bit more to the layout today by adding a office / mess room to the left hand side of the engine shed. Here are a couple of photos: Still a bit to do on the shed and I'm not sure if the office will stay, I will see how it looks once I add coal stage and water tower etc. More soon.

I have done a bit of scratch building today, I made a start on a small coal stage for the layout, I already have one but its a bit to big. It's made Mainly out of balsa wood and a bit of plastic card, still a bit more to do. Here are a few photos: Bits laid out. Bits glued up. I'm a bit further along than this now. More soon.
