I constructed this back in the mid 90s, Shaw Bridge LYR EM.

Hi Edward,

very well done with those, so very rewarding to build your own structures like that.

hope your pleased with the result.

Simond,

 agree but it’s mostly done by machine, not quite the same as measuring cutting and fixing together,  my wife could probably do that kind of modelling but she’s no modeller if you see what I mean.

Having said that, it is up to the individual, how he wants to produce his model.

A quiet afternoon with the Crossways coach fleet basking in the sunshine.

Hi Montyburn,

I will see if I have one but Im sure I only had a 2 side view as it has proved troublesome seeing good photos of the Box.

Hi Dave,

the layout looks fantastic, the rise of the approach road is a major feature, no doubt it adds to the station character.

Its looking good Dave.

20+ years ago since I constructed these ha ha.

4 & 7mm scales.

I think a RTR model of one of those would sell well, such a lovely little engine

I like that idea, lovely station and track plan and an wonder if it would fit a LYR terminus?

Here a couple of shots,

We’re the chimney/Stove pipes added, downspouts and on the wooden structure were part of the roof bracket details were added and first coats of paint.

Hi folks,

have been asked about how I construct my buildings, we I have to say I am allways discovering new ways, ideas etc, we never stop learning.

here is how I constructed a Goods shed in 2010.

ignore the curved look on some photos, it is camera distortion.
