Well, I have to say, much impressed by the Pannier shaped news from Accurascale. 

 

Top, top, top result ! 

 

There will be an order placed for 7754, the Mountain Ash Pannier which will replace the existing version from Modelzone/Bachmann. In addition, with a lead time of Q1 2025, there's plenty of time to formulate a layout around other examples. 

 

Yes, the sheep could well go West !

It has....sadly my test space is currently occupied by Timmy's nether regions so unavailable for play.....I use a 3rd radius set track oval for new locos as one or two have been "problematic" after a bit of mileage....

Yes. Mine has had a test drive but nothing too strenuous. It's now back in it's box and has been spirited away by Santa's official Chateau Sheep representative for formal unveiling in a little over a months time. 

 

But.....it's a bit of a rather nice lump.

I'm sure I heard a loud cheer coming from the general direction of @notenoughpanniers towers.  I'm sure that we can all agree, it's just what he needed.

Just purchased..... more petrol and matches. 

 

(From looking at the AS website and noting the significant number of pop-up boxes notifying viewers of panniers being bought, I suspect AS will do very well from this announcement.)

At Lindfield, NSW, there are two businesses occupying adjoining premises on the Pacific Highway.

 

A veterinary hospital and a gourmet butcher.

There's something slightly concerning about that. Can't put my finger on just what though.

Morning all, 

 

Last night saw a bit of operation on Sheep Dip, as well as a spot of railway reading. 

 

This is a view from the playing.......er....ahem..cough, operating session.....

Sheep Dip, all being well, will be at Nailsea in March.
