I am aware that Airfix and Revell do kits in 1:72 scale. i have a few myself

It's gonna be pretty big i imagine

I One thing that really annoys me is that. Take Corgi for example. They have a superb diecast aircraft collection (I have one of their Spitfires displayed on Draxbridge and a Sea King lying about somewhere...) but all of the aircraft are different sizes. Take the Lancaster for example. The model is a lot smaller that the Spitfire and Hurricane when in reality, the real thing is bigger than the both of them.

Jim Bean is my favourite. That and Captain Morgan

a pannier tank?

Progress is looking great so far. Can't wait to see when it's done

How they managed that without frying the locomotives just shocked me.

I don't know if this railway has already been mentioned, But another one is the Hayling Seaside Railway. Its gauge is 2 ft (610 mm) and operates passenger trains between Beachlands and Eastoke Corner. Although it is mainly a diesel operated railway, the railway sometimes hires steam locomotives from other railways. Work started in October 2001 on the building of Beachlands Station on land leased from the nearby amusement park. Work continued through 2002 and the line finally opened to passengers on 5 July 2003. The line currently has four locos and as previously mentioned, they are all diesels. Motor Rail 14wDH No. 1 Alan B Built in 1937 Alan Keef 0-4-0DH No. 3 Jack Built in 1988 Ruston & Hornsby 4wDM No. 4 Alistair Built in 1940 Ruston & Hornsby 4wDMAn No. 5 Edwin Built in 1967 They also have four coaches and a few wagons. 0-4-0DH Jack built by Alan Keef All four locomotives (left to right): No. 1 Alan B, No. 5 Edwin, No. 4 Alistair and No. 3 Jack. In September 2019, the owners put the business up for sale by lease or outright purchase in regard to their wishes to retire and travel.

I like where you are going with this, but the name doesn't work for me.

This picture was taken via Network Rail's unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) while it was surveying the track for any defects.

I'm trying to think of a name for my OO gauge modern yard layout. The only part of the name I have come up with so far is Yard and Sidings (because that is what the layout basically is). I've posted some pics of my layout below:

I wonder why that is?

One of the members at the club I went to before That-Which-Shall-Not-be-Named has a T gauge layout. We had it operating on a club open day one time. We had some running difficulties with it (as you do with model railways) but with T gauge it was that small, you couldn't tell if the loco was on the track properly. I've also seen the T gauge layout Forth Bridge operating at a model railway show. It looked absolutely incredible. I've posted a pic of my co-member's layout below...

Another view of the layout.

I scratch-built a makeshift flat wagon a while back. I used an old Lima wagon chassis and the sleepers from the Ratio 519 Large Grounded Coach body kit. The intention was that it was supposed to look like it's been built from salvaged materials. Perhaps some detailing, a paint and some weathering will further enhance that idea...

Which one had the cat on it? 1CAT or ME0W

it sunk slowly

I'm I correct in thinking the A4 is the now preserved Bittern (4464)?

Nice videos. Have you thought about putting lights in your coaches?
