A Nod To Brent - a friendly thread, filled with frivolity, cream teas and pasties. Longing for the happy days in the South Hams 1947.

Just like the guy @Graham_Muz who did it and is now the new product development manager at Kernow.

This afternoon we catch a Tavistock Junction bound freight train of vans hauled by one of the Newton Granges, 6813 Eastbury Grange.

Lovely looking engine.  Like the way the light catches the boiler in the last shot.

Yes, I like Granges. With their smaller driving wheels they sort of squat on their haunches and look more purposeful than Halls.

Nice Nice.

 

Particularly if you could eat them in Nice, France.

 

They were served at the first conference of the National Institute of Clinical Excellence. I thought they were NICE !

finish the top fence this week

Now you have it, Just don't make the mistake I made yesterday putting in some more modern fencing on my layout and put one bit in upside down. 

 

Now I just need to digest the 1568 pages of this thread to see what you have been up to for the last 7 years. In all seriousness though Rob, I know early on there is a plan via a control panel image but what is the overall dimensions of the layout?

indulging themselves with some afternoon tea and cakes

Is there a specific cake type  that the driver of a such a cute engine would consume? Need to ensure modelling standards are maintained after all.

I would have thought a bit of lardy cake would go down a treat. As for a cute engine, a Pannier would do nicely

14 feet by 8 feet or 4.27 by 2.44 metres in old money.

Any cake with raspberries and mascarpone ticks my box.
