Not much modeling has been done of late, but I started clearing the garden to make way for the log cabin at the weekend which involved taking down a Pear tree. 

Off to the West Somerset Railway for Easter as it is a line I have not visited before. 

Cheers, Ade.

Coming on nicely George.

I cannot wait to start ballasting om my layout but got to ensure the electrics are all ok first. 

Cheers, Ade.

Looking good. I can't wait to get one.

Hi Al, looks fantastic. Well done!

Cheers, Ade.

Good to know.

I plan on using the air brush for mine. ( My good lady Lez bought it for spray painting cakes (!) but she has kindly donating it to me for railway use. Works fine after trying it on my wagons at the weekend)

Cheers, Ade.

Excellent! I still call them Brush 4's showing my age.....

Thanks. I will try and get round next week  

Things are coming along OK.

Cheers, Ade.

Looking good George.  Will you paint the sleepers by hand or airbrush the whole thing?

Cheers, Ade.

Already coming on in leaps and bounds in your usual style! Nice one.

Cheers, Ade.

A clean 61xx pulls in with a mixed goods train.

The SR Brake van stands in for a missing GWR Toad.

Spent this afternoon playing with the airbrush and I have weathered my fleet of wagons. Taken the baseboard one outside and done a few pics.

The 64xx heads up an empty coal train.

Hi Alan, I don't think it is all that bad. I have seen far worse ones on E Bay.

Cheers, Ade.

Cheers, Ade.

Many thanks Richard.

If they do some in Southern Railway livery, I think I would be up for some, given I have the IOW Terrier W9 "Fishbourne".

Cheers, Ade.

Yes nice to be home early, but I was still the last one out of the door...

Hoping to get a bit done on the track tonight.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks for the tip. 

Cheers, Ade.

Done some work on the cattle dock. Cut some of the foamboard so the kit built cattle dock is inset into the platform and not sitting several mm above it creating a step.

Some of the new Salt and Lime wagons can be seen behind it.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Andy, sadly another late night at work so I did not get home until 7.30pm, like tonight...

Glad you are making progress.

Cheers, Ade.

Coming along quickly!

Hattons have announced the price for the GWR Railcar at £466.65.

Cheers, Ade.

It was a great day out, thanks George.

I picked up some of the board from Hobbycraft which you recommended today ready for doing the scratch built buildings. Four sheets for a tenner.

Cheers, Ade.

As a militaria collector/war gamer/railway modeller this layout has it all for me.

Superb.

Cheers, Ade.
