    I'd say yes to the vertical tank and the pipe run. I have part of the gaugemaster fuelling set and plan to do something similar on a future build. Not enough room on my clay build but one day...

    Very tempted tu use one of those kits on my tiny builds. Nice to hear you're pleased with it. The layout looks to be shaping up nicely.

    Nice sunny day, ideal for a spot of ballasting. Loader has received some wear and tear but still awaits gluing down.

    Small is good, always loved Silvertown since the Railway Modeller article/plan in the late 70s(?)

    You may want to consider a dab of filler over the joint of the two wood backscene panels. I've no experience of papering over a joint but could be inviting a problem.

    My go to epic is Portwey by Julian . Small simple but very effective. A search on micro layout forum here should find it. There is another Portwey that is diesel based so that should allow you to differentiate.

    Rich, check out Machen on Google, such a simple loading system crying out to be modelled. I've used a faller conveyor kit but only used one spruce. It is a tad short but some plastruct I beam will sort that.

    Another variation on a familiar theme. Edenley quarry loading point. Inspired by Machen pictures it will be a tuning fork with possibly a kick back for a loco or crippled wagon. I'm afraid I'm too tight to buy some rock moulds so made use of a strip of styrene attacked with a knife, screwdriver and blow lamp!

    It is a snug fit but my pannier and 08 fit well, I assume other small wheel bases would fit 🤞

    Thanks Rich, I like the stage when you start adding little extras to breathe some life into a scene. Titivating as the wife calls it!

    Nice drop of sunshine in Edenvale today, a rare commodity of late.

    Greenery has arrived at Edenvale. The cinema poster of "some like it hot" gives a date of 1959 probably the era I always thought this was based. Will put some passenger pictures up later.

    Got to love the S and D. Dad took us poking around Highbridge works in the mid to late 60s. So scared we were going to get arrested! I assume you have seen the Betjeman video? I could almost watch it on repeat.

    A little more progress on Edenvale, fun and games building the platform to fit but getting there.

    Nice idea, perhaps another build as I have just bought some DPM parts that will make another nice low relief factory so can see me heading this way again... I've really enjoyed this build (apart from the platform!).
  17. bazzer42
    It will take a pannier or an 08. Think a pannier is more in keeping with the build but if it hung on until the 70s who knows...

    Edenbury Town has morphed into Edenvale, home of Dytes Pumps. The chance find of some Skytrex low relief buildings that were purchased many moons ago have become the basis of the engineering works the office coming from a DPM kit bought for fiver at a car boot! As well as a siding fo Dytes there will be some staithes for household coal in the other siding. The footbridge is unashamedly Airfix but then all the scenery items were in stock here and I love a freebie!

    I like your 3d effects with the overlays and careful use of the "scenes" on the backscenes. I agree with Andrew above, it is a lovely layout.

    Eden Mill Dries are drawing to a close leaving the door open for either the Eden Forest Railway (preserved) or Edenbury Town. Wrapping paper box size

    Cracking building, that's got real character. Fell like you want step inside and lose hours flicking through the racks. I claim Hunky Dory, Sgt Pepper (?) And King Crimson. Only know KC as I have been thinking about trying some Fripp.

    A few shots of Eden Mill clay works, another wrapping paper special.

    Hi PB Shed, it is a 22 litre box designed for wrapping paper. Whitefurze do something slightly bigger and possibly cheaper. The pennies you save on plastic you can spend on more static grass! I have a china clay (wrapping paper size) on the go and been meaning to post some pictures up

    Sorry Gary, I've just caught up with the micro thread and cross you've been a victim of a keyboard warrior. It's been a thread I've followed and enjoyed a chat so keep it up. Hopefully Christmas will give you time to put it behind you. I always have big plans for modelling before Christmas and never really happens until the new year. Hope Santa brings something railway related!
