Yeah, I hate it when people take photos looking down on a layout like that. It always looks more realistic when the camera is is held down at baseboard level 📸   😜

Is that the section of the layout in the shed where the tracks go through the wall and into the garden?

I always thought N gauge a little small for outdoor model railways 😄

Nice weathering, nice lighting, but clearly a shot in the owner's fiddleyard! I like that they’ve modelled the crane with legs outstretched and jib up, mind.

Thanks,

They've clearly never been to Great Yarmouth - no way is any part of the town that clean ;)

... they were pushing their luck with the name on the business under the arch. I've never liked humorous names on models, it spoils the illusion.  ...

The 'Bridge Inn' is a bit cheesy too - as the bridge seems to go 'in' to the top floor ! ( At least it's not got a bus on it ! )

Those moulded-on handrails on the front need replacing with wire...
