    excellent! looking forward to more updates. I recently noticed this addition to the CRS website. any use? http://www.cornwallrailwaysociety.org.uk/uploads/7/6/8/3/7683812/3831417_orig.jpg

    great thread. thanks again Gordon. I'm also interested in Ray's post above to clarify as I'm coming to ballasting soon on my own layout.

    have a look at Gunheath on the Carbean branch, as well as a section of the jetties at Fowey. I'd love to do a layout based on either of those locations. Gunheath in particular would have lots of operational interest and could be adapted for a small space.

    dunno about others but I for one cannot wait for this track to be painted and ballasted.

    just noticed that despite following this thread for a long time, I've never posted! fantastic trackwork, truly an inspiration. whenever I've found it hard going on my tiny layout I've thought of Eastwood Town and shamed myself into working harder. I always look forward to new updates on your progress and I wish you all the best with it.

    not quite up to South Wales, but I like the Newquay branch. you'd have, goods, coal, clay, local, express and holiday traffic (don't think there was any milk or agricultural expresses), but all with a picturesque single-line and with a choice of small-ish stations.

    very nice. thanks for posting

    another big thank-you for taking the time to upload this brilliant collection. my limited knowledge of railways is confined to GWR/WR stuff, and I know very little about the other regions and companies. however, reading through this thread from start to finish I'm now able to identify an awful lot more locos (and locations!). I've enjoyed trying to guess the loco before reading the caption, and by the end of the thread I was getting most of them right. I will have to frequent your flickr pages now.

    Sandhills, can't you at least stick a Lego mini-figure in front of your locos to make us feel a little better? jk, fantastic work. very inspirational.
  23. fender
    very elegant solution.
  24. fender
    enjoying the step-by-step photos.

    some of the weathering and ageing touches on here are truly brilliant. great thread.
