Widdershin Gate

Santa has indeed come and a selection of figures were found.

 

a guard who will end up watching the world go by as the train departs,

 

railway worker with a posable arm holding a very festive oil can, perhaps on his way to panto 

 

a rather rotund driver who may have to watch the mince pies over the the Xmas period. Wife said she thought it reminded her of me when she looking at the website!

Yeap too chunky to get into the cab so gone with a thinner version, Roadscenes lorry driver?

15 wagons checked over, rebuffered, brake gear repaired, axleboxes added, couplings in place after the two crashes of 22. 
 

brought home how many still needed to numbers and tares added

Last of the repairs to the damaged wagons completed. Wrong replacement buffers but all I had in the spares box left. 
 

next patch painting new bits and a few sessions completing numbers etc where ever possible.

Refitted the scenic break to the fiddle yard. At least the wills stone sheet made it easier to re join the broken pieces and hide the joins.

Taken opportunity of wife absence to take over the kitchen and work on layout. All back scene now in place plus end. Basic scenery in place and although end wall too massive in the spirit of making do with bits to hand in place.
