Hi there, The wooden slat fencing I got from http://www.marvinmodelrailways.co.uk The back scene is Into The Town C which is an ID back scene I got off Ebay. Cheers Arnie

Superb pics! Shame I couldn't make it, need to get some driving lessons in also! Cheers Arnie

Evening, After some thought i've decided to change back to the Era i intially chose when i started the layout and that's a mid 80's to mid 90's setting. This has always been my favourite period and so i've been busy removing all the decoders from my more modern fleet and bringing loco's out of storage and chipping them up. Not much more progression has been made on the redevelopment of the other side of the layout. Hopefully i can get back to it soon, having some bad luck lately with the boiler and TV both packing up on the same day! Here's some pics.

Evening all, As my interest has finally returned and feeling a bit of inspiration after the Stafford show i decided to rip up one side of the layout and start again. I was never happy with it and redeveloping it should keep me busy until i can finally build a layout up in the loft! Here's a few progress pics and also a vid of the West coast 33 that i've fitted a tank speaker and Biffo chip to.

£40 was a bit steap but worth it in the end. They do look good and i would of also spent a lifetime looking at it in a packet

Hi Scott, It's coming along great mojo has finally returned! I will post up some progress pics of the other side and also a video later of my west coast 33 with the new tank speaker and Biffo chip fitted, it sounds superb In the meantime here's some pics i've been meaning to post up.

Hi Scott, Like the new MK2's you just need one in BR Blue now? Still haven't been brave enough to fit my West Coast 33 with the new tank speaker and Biffo chip yet! Cheers Arnie

HST looks awesome James, great work! Looking forward to seeing it and Loftus Road on Saturday. Arnie

Hi Leon, All looking great, liking the pics! Cheers Arnie

Hi Ian, Tidworth's looking awesome! Looking forward to a play soon Cheers Arnie

Morning all, Hope everyone had a great Christmas and New year. Mojo is starting to slowly return, actually ran a train on the layout last night! I have also been busy detailing up a few DRS locos which Santa brought, i will post a few pictures up soon. Cheers Arnie

Hi Neil, Not been up to much with the layout apart from shelving my modern stock and taking it back to a more 90's feel again. Also been tinkering with a few Heljan 47's getting them back into service. I have got myself a new camera though and have been playing around with it, here are a few snaps.

Hi Scott, Great pics, i like the shed (the wooden one) i remember seeing that on the works tour, nice touch. Cheers Arnie

Evening All, I thought i would post up some in progress pics of the layout. I have been busy relaying a curve that i was never too happy with when i started the layout and I have also removed the flyover for rebuilding which will return at some point. I'm not too sure if the pylon in the background will stay as it's a Hornby one and i think it's a little underscale for OO? Maybe i will have a go at scratch building one in the future! And lastly as you can see i've aquired myself a Grassmaster and have been having ago at static grass, i'm quite pleased with the results and looking forward to redoing all the other grassy areas on the layout with it. Here's a couple of pics. Class 37683 Arnash Lane with new grass by Arnington, on Flickr Freightliner Class 47349 Arnash Lane by Arnington, on Flickr Cheers, Arnie

Superb work Ian, warehouse looks very nice mate!

Hi Peter, I do have a Colas 70 already just need a 37 now to complete the current Colas diesel set I quite like the 70's also, they do produce some nice clag and don't sound to bad at all! Cheers Arnie

Evening guy's Thought i'd post a couple of pics of some new Colas beasts that have arrived. Colas Class 60087 Arnash Lane by Arnington, on Flickr Colas Class 56113 Arnash Lane by Arnington, on Flickr Cheers Arnie

Hi Richard, I'm also a follower of your layout on YouTube and enjoy your video's. Great to see the layout on here, it is superb! Cheers Arnie

Cheers mate i'll have to order some.

Hi Scott, Nice pics dude, what colour/make of paint did you use for the floor inside the shed? Looks really good and wouldn't mind something similar for my shed interior. Cheers Arnie

Looking awesome Ian!

Doors look superb mate, nice one!
