  1. Yes, definitely, I think it should be higher Mark, looking at the Building to the Left, I would say almost as high.
  2. Or as I have did for Tonleigh Bridge, using some Scalescenes stuff to help decorate it, plus BODGERY.
  3. Can you add another Layout down the OTHER side of your Garage, like I did with Bench Rd? The Swivelling Sector Plate transferred stock from one Layout to the other.
  4. Well BIG THANKS for telling me, how great to see it in use again. Cheers Buddy.
  5. WOW AND BLOODY WOW.... Thanks for resurrecting my old Layout, how great to see it in good use, just as it was meant to be. I'm definitely following this now. Cheers, Andy.
  6. The new one will be smaller, and built to Exhibit, so it can be sold easier as well. Cheers Buddy.
  7. Thanks David, I'll put a link on here for the followers. Cheers Buddy.
  8. Thanks Ian, hope your well mate, I will start soon I hope. probably end of May.
  9. Thanks Scott, BABY POD will be a challenge, but one I'm looking forward to getting on with after the work is done. Cheers. Andy.
  10. Thanks, There should be more shunting, Speedlink style on the new project, as I am planning various ideas already. Cheers, Andy.
  11. The FINAL VIDEO from Tonleigh Bridge, I lost count so called it 36 in the Video, but its actually No 35. More to come once BABY POD is completed and the new Layout starts. Thanks again to you all for your support and comments, and I WILL BE BACK. Andy.
  12. Peugeot still do one, but its BIG and Megga Bucks. Us poor modellers can't afford some of the silly prices of Cars, we have more Locos to buy. 🙄
  13. And so, Tonleigh Bridge was loaded this morning and left for its Journey to Welsh Wales, to reside quietly in the upper floor of a Barn. I hope the new owner enjoys it as much as I intended to, and can develop it further in years to come.
  14. One new purchase this week. I think it might need a little weathering. 😥
  15. AND, Thanks to Ian's generosity I have the loan of 4 of his old Kit Built Warflats and 3 x Land Rovers ready for the start of my next project in my much reduced POD. Cheers Ian, they will be part of the Fleet again soon.
  16. So bad, its beautiful Dave, a real work of art, Well done and great work young man, and thanks for sharing, and as usual with your pics, no sign of a model coupling.
  17. I wish, Don't forget, Lazy Joe's Brother is on the job at this end. Hahha😂
  18. O.K., Tonleigh Bridge is now SOLD, so this will be the Last official post. Before I can start the new Layout / Topic, here's a Video of what has been keeping me busy over the last few Months. This was just from 2 Open Mic nights, so totally un rehearsed. Tony / Singer / Guitarist and I will be out soon at Pubs etc, as "CHANCE ENCOUNTER" once we have a permanent Drummer. THANKS once again Guys.
  19. Looking again this morning, I think the left corner will be more like Ian / @Temeraire "Tidworth" Layout, rather than the Dubmill Sidings older style as show above. It will be more in keeping with my 90's Stock. NOT a copy, but more of that Modern style.
  20. Hi Paul, Our passage way alongside the Bungalow is far to narrow anyway, certainly not wide enough to carry any boards from the POD located in the front of the bungalow to the rear, or operate at the front. Nice idea though. Cheers. Good luck with your sale, I'm not moving again having lived in I think its 23 properties, of which I've owned, bought and sold about 18 since I was 26.
  21. Hi Rich, I do have a Parcels Bay in mind actually. I'm looking at a combination of three inspiring Layouts for the size I will have. I will probably end up with about 11ft long (2ft wide boards) with a Fiddle Yard on the left at 90 degrees of about 5ft. so "L" shape and inspiration has come from these three sources. The main inspiration is 4mm Canada St, a simple yard for sorting arrival and departure. Not to dissimilar to my current Yard, but not a through Yard. The second inspiration is from the Gresley Clubs 7mm Hawkins Lane Goods. The Cooperage in the top right will be a Steelworks for me, and the inclusion along the top / back of the Layout for a small Oil Depot, similar to the one just outside of Alton Station on the Waterloo Line. The Third inspiration comes again from a 7mm Layout, this time, Dubmill Sidings, taking the Warehouse and Yard on the bottom / front left of the Layout for Parcels and General Goods.
  22. Passenger Bus that carries smelly people and need a platform to cater for the poor souls. In a word, NO. 🤣 Thanks anyway Craig.
