Popular Post Andrew P Posted March 22 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 22 (edited) And so, Tonleigh Bridge was loaded this morning and left for its Journey to Welsh Wales, to reside quietly in the upper floor of a Barn. I hope the new owner enjoys it as much as I intended to, and can develop it further in years to come. Edited March 23 by Andrew P 10 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 (edited) The FINAL VIDEO from Tonleigh Bridge, I lost count so called it 36 in the Video, but its actually No 35. More to come once BABY POD is completed and the new Layout starts. Thanks again to you all for your support and comments, and I WILL BE BACK. Andy.

RMweb Gold C126 Posted March 27 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 27 Thanks again, Andy for this thread, and providing me with another layout to lust after. Not seen your last video yet, but I hope I am not alone in wondering if the new owner will be showing us what is happening to the layout. I would like to see some Speedlink-style shunting in action... 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porfuera Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Hi Andy - I don't comment often but it was good to see another video and nice to know that Tonleigh Bridge went to a good home even if it wasn't what you'd planned. Best wishes to Mrs. P and I hope she is improving and that the building works won't be too disruptive. I always enjoy your updates and along with everyone else I'm looking forward to seeing your next build develop! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwr Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Thanks for the video update Andy. I do hope your wife gets better soon. Shame about Tonleigh yard but as you say family comes first. Having said that I am sure the layout that follows will be as interesting as all the others you've built over the years and I look forward to the updates and videos over time.

AndyB Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Hi Andy. Sorry not to have seen you at our annual 2 winter meet ups (Alton & Basingstoke). It strikes me that the L-shaped area you now have available would allow a reincarnation of your Bodmin-esque layout. Albeit your version of it was U-shaped. I'm wondering if, once you've got all these diesels out of your system you might return to some proper trains and give us a rendition of a 1950s/60s era BLT? Maybe throw in a OO9 line for tourist traffic. 😇 Cheers for now. Andy 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
