Morning Martyn. 

 

No. There won't be a separate thread. I will post updates on here. Regard it as  Chapter IV of the Sheep Chronicles.......

Whatever you do don't pull it....otherwise the whole thing might unravel!

It depends on your perspective. All my modelling is 'foreign stuff' as I model railways in a different country to my own.........

Well, so do I as you know!

[Stubby47]

Nah, it's big boy's stuff (aka old man's stuff).

 

But you'll not have tension locks to play with...

In other news, I am reliably informed by a 'friend' of the Sheep Chronicles that Mutton features in this month's BRM. 

Rob. 

 

And very excellent it looks too. Be advised though that some impostor by the name of A. York is claiming copyright for Norman's photos.

And while I'm at it.......things have gone a bit Bodmin and Wenford..

[The Johnster]

Before what?

 

Sorry, think the sun's got to me a bit.

Nice.

 

Also a reminder that layouts don't necessarily need figures.

Morning all. 

 

A 'guest' monochrome image from Ivor Peterborough this morning. 

 

Rob.  

[NHY 581]

A view by Norman Lockhart of the visiting Beattie Well tank..

[NHY 581]

Norman Lockhart provides us with an image of an unusual visitor to Mutton. 

 

This was one of my earliest attempts at weathering and I think it will benefit from a re-visit. 

 

There is also a bit of damage to the front buffer beam which needs attending to so a bit of a project emerges. 

 

Until then.......we have Norman ' s photo. 

 

Rob. 

[Brinkly]

Very nice photos Rob. Lovely work sir.

 

Kind regards,

 

Nick.

[NHY 581]

Thanks Nick. 

 

I do like the Q1 but it is somewhat far removed from a bucolic little branch line such as Lamb Regis. 

 

 

( and, truth be told, it doesn't really go through the holes to the fiddle yard on Mutton. )
