Getting to the Point

A while ago I bought, amongst other things, a couple of Waverley O gauge point kits from Ian Morton.

 

Following a succesful test build of a Scalescenes Waiting Shelter blown up to O gauge a seed of an idea for my first layout in 7mm started to grow ...

 

So, the premise is a preserved railway somewhere in GWR land (as the point kits are to GWR standards). A single track railway doubled at the station. Model half the station with the overbridge forming the scenic break at one end and a tunnel at the other. The waiting shelter could stand on one platform with a small station building on the other.

 

Here's the shelter

and here's the point - a left hand A4, my first ever soldered point and not too shabby even if I say so :D

The wing rail on the straight route needs adjusting as it's a bit tight between the two .....

 

Finally here's the Pug sat on some track at last B)
