Another view of shunting on the wharf.

A shot of Port Nadolig now it's nearing completion with Holy War on duty today.

Quarry Hunslet 'Holy War' rumbles into the Wharf at Port Nadolig with some rubble trucks.

Another scene from Glanfa Fach with 'Merrdin Emrys', 'Elidir' and Standard 4 No. 80098 all awaiting their next duty.

Standard tank '80098' awaits it's next train along side the wharf.

Thankyou very much, I really like doing little scenes for the 009 models. As always natural day light I think really adds to the scene and helps hide modelling evils!

Double Fairlie 'Livingston Thompson' is service at Glanfa Fach as Quarry Hunslet 'Elidir' pushes some slate wagons into the exchange shed.

Glanfa Fach outside in the sunshine.

Thankyou very much. Given there isn't any wiring or anything to the track as this'll be a photo board it has been a lot quicker to put together than other projects.

Some more work today, it's all still drying but a lighting test and landscaping added. Hopefully capturing the end of steam/run down type air I am aiming for. Still just phone snaps, will do some proper photos when dry and the sun shines.

A bit more today, a pause for a few hours now whilst the rust effects take shape on the water tank.

Can't believe I missed this, that is very kind indeed Jim! Sorry it has taken me so long to thankyou!

As I am still awaiting some items on back order for Port Nadolig and feeling inspired by Statfold I decided to take my MS models out of storage and start a photo box file. So this will purely be a scene for display and photos only by not bad progress for one day.

As other have said I saw this in the flesh at Statfold Barn over the weekend and no photo in this thread, no matter how good, in my opinion does any justice to how wonderful this really looks! A really charming layout that you are instantly convinced is of a real place.

Wasn't expecting that! A really good announcement, will have to resist thought. Might be difficult to though. I imagine the liveries will be the same as the four standard releases in 009 perhaps with an extra one as well. Maybe the dinorwic coal wagon will be in the May 1st announcements for 009.
