Put the 2 picture pride cabinets I got form Rails of Sheffield rummage sale up this afternoon, only paid £20 a piece for them as they were missing their shelves however they found one of them and let me have it!

 

I’ve ordered a 2nd shelf and 2 pieces of sand backing direct from picture pride to replace/cover the mirror back as I don’t like it, and they will match my other PP cabinets, just got to pop over to Sandwell to collect them next time I’m in work in Birmingham

(I’ve blurred out the reflection on the bottom cabinet for security reasons!)

 

I think I’m going to use these cabinets for my tendered steam locos

I see no silver bullets. :-)

No trains today sorry!

A couple of 37s pushing a snow plough might move the wrong kind of cat, particularly if they came in at high speed from the right of the picture.

Several of the cats I have had used to enjoy helping me with my layouts a couple liked when I ran trains would sit alongside and tap them but not knock them off ,a niegbours cat joins me in my shed and sits on the door mat whilst I am in there.
