More great pictures Andy. I do like the shots over the canal bridge.

Thanks Andy, it does give some interesting angles from above on the Road Bridge, and the Bedroom windows of the Pub, plus from the Canal Tow Path.

Andy you do cobble together things quickly, I love the retaining wall and butresses, very nicely done!!!

That RF Redstripe 37 does look nice, I think that livery was a cracking one during BR days, and suited most that it sat on.

 

Keep it going, but nice and slowly please

 

Jinty ;)

Thanks Jints, Yes I agree the Red Stripe seemed to suit most Locos from the humble 20 through to the 47's 37's 56 and 58's, even on 26's in Scotland, they looked the bizz.

 

And Yes slowly, work on KM will now grind to a halt for a few days, as George T of this Parish, is coming down on Sunday for DEMU at Burton, and so I'll set up the other half of Pen Y Bont out and set up tomorrow or Saturday so that we can have a run on that with his Locos.

B&Q?

Thanks, I do have a fairly new one I bought at Wicks a couple of years back,  and about 50 sticks that were purchased as a job lot from Peter BB of this Parish.

 

I only asked as, I thought the fitting of people and Lamp Posts was a bit OTT. hahah

 

Thanks for the tip anyway mate.

The station area is really coming along well Andy. 

Thanks Andy, I think adding the Backscene has brought it all in together, and if I can some bits at DEMU then it will be finished in a few days.

Railfreight grey was the start of the slippery slope into the various garish liveries we have to live with today.  :read:

At least it meant I had some nice Railfreight Callenders to hang on my office wall for 2 or 3 years.

 

(I used to work for a railfreight customer, and managed to lay claim to them).
