Ah well Clevedon is sinking lower and lower...not fncy making a string of wcplr stations to go around the garage?

very nice, the nrn handsets/heads look good...

how long til you start collecting tiny photos for the gauges and trying to mke the curly phone wires (whistles innocently)

haven't noticed this blog before, looks very nice.

Any news on Old Cross Andy?

Seasons greetings.

Matt.

very nice indeed 'Chard

cheers, I have added a few more snaps, the ends look coarser if that is the best way to put it, but to my eyes look ok, I have yet to add the distinctive streaking on the bufferbeam cowl.

Also on my list of additions are lifeguards and the multiple working cables at each end when I find a good clear photo of what goes where.

very nice, although there will need to be a safety barrier behind the firedoor to stop people walking onto the tracks...

That is a brilliant piece of modelling, can't wait to see it finished.

fantastic... i'll be keeping n eye on your vac progress...

I like the underframe weathering...convincing because thats what the real one is like =)

nice. What did you use to colour the wheel rims on the 03?

It's looking very nice Andy, at this rate you will have used up your kit mountain by next christmas...

Nice work, I do like the solution high level have used for the fly cranks, the wobbly mainline split axle doesn't really convince me.

its nice to see an old favourite back pete... how long til you finally succumb to building it?

get well soon Andy, good luck with progress!

It's nice to see the return of a very interesting modelling project

Its looking very tidy, I still have that plan printed off for p4 project, thanks both of you for the inspiration

I await progress, it strikes me two or three of these would look good in a 70's loading dock...

I think you'll find binky was borrowed by mort, whilst death argued against the railway byelaws allowing him to carry out his duties...

hmm trip to london for a wander today...

...but a plan has been chosen, and a location chosen, the North Crofty Branch was a 47 chin line in the heart of tin mining cornwall. regretabley the mine closed in the 1920s i think, but I am sure in n alternative history clay or even ore could be produced still...even in the '70s

that looks good andy - what livery did they wear, bauxite or railfreight?

I can't wait to see progress...

having chatted to dagworth et al at cheltenham, it appears that elongating the central axle bearings will cure the Bachmann seesaw, the gears being coarse enough to mesh still.

It was good to see you Andy, I think your wallet come off best in the end...I regrettably aquired two blue diesel projects...(time for 31304 with its red ploughs methinks.... Glad to hear you had a good show, but how about losing the auto couplings
