That's a great layout.

 

Thanks. Glad you like it.

 

Rather nice Alan. Do you want some quality shots taking?

 

Yes please Steve. When?

 

Wonderful pics! I'm currently working on my own coal yard and there is some great inspiration.

 

Thanks Steve B. It does capture the essence of a coal yard all the dirt etc. Glad it's given you inspiration and hope to see your's on RM Web.

Neil

 

 

 

Yeah tried to picture a jinty in BR Blue and Yellow - not a pretty sight :nono:

 

Really hope you take this to mansfield, may have to abandon operating Deeping Lane for an hour :biggrin_mini2:

 

Neil

 

You're very welcome to have a play on Church Lane Neil.

 

 

It's nice to see Steve's piccies in a fuller size. Only saw them on the camera screen last night. Brilliant.

Church Lane was taken to the MMRG clubroom for Ramrig to work his magic with the camera. An alteration will be made to the layout in the next few days. This will be the removal of the portacabin in the engineers yard and be replaced with a building more in keeping with the era modelled. Lochnagar (Alex) of Not-ingley fame has claimed the portacabin (complete with fridge!) and this will probably be re -erected on said layout.

Hi very nice little layout you have there,with a nice selection of loco's.

 

well done.

 

Thanks d600 glad you like it. I look at these pictures and almost forget that the scenic part of Church Lane is only 4ft in length. Many thanks to Steve (Ramrig) for his photography. Well worth the 2 + hours spent setting the shots up.
