    Car service cost £110 out of the budgeted £300. Pretty good for a franchise dealer. I know where the extra money is going. ;)

      Very nice! Just small locos for my little layout I'm afraid - a little 'Pug' and a NG diesel shunter as well as a trio of oil tank wagons. Hoping to start the extension very soon!

      Perhaps try doing some small sketches or some more research to take your mind off waiting? That's what I do!

      I found looking on the internet for pictures of the prototype and get ideas how to weather it. I just took my time and added a bit at a time:) What you using powders or paint?

    3. Zumo2567

      Zumo2567
