    Ricky Gervais. The most unfunniest person on tv and cringe worthy to watch in the night at the museum films. Paul

    Hi Greg. I am building an O gauge micro which will go on travels in our caravan! http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/128038-stoneferry-engineering-o-gauge-micro/ Paul

    Progress has slowed a little over the past few days but I have managed to do some ballasting and begin to paint the low relief buildings. Paul

    An hour here and there has seen me clad the foam board and fit the canopy over the unloading point. It plugs into two holes I drilled allowing for easy storage. The two red lima wagons were bought from the Hull show for a fiver a piece. Bargain! They will get altered at some point in the year. Hopefully this week will see some form of painting and ground cover. Paul

    An N gauge lazy Susan layout on its Holidays at the caravan in Norfolk! Paul

    Looking good. Nice to see you back in 7mm Andy. Paul

    That's because she does not go in the loft Marc. With this layout being able to fold it will nicely fit in the car surrounded by all the caravan stuff - unseen!That is till we unload at the other end by which time it will be too late! I have taken shunting planks before and this isn't much bigger. Gulp! Paul

    Hi Ernie. No problems with the 08 or the Ixion Fowler going through the points. They seem to have no issues. The welding rods were just waste lying at work. I am not a welder so it was just trial and error as to what would go through the tube. Paul

    Hi Dave yes certain aspects are somewhat restricted but it's all part of the challenge. I wanted to build something smallish that was easily stored and able to take to the caravan without incurring the wrath of the missus. Having said that she does not no that this is being built, so mums the word everyone! Paul

    Some foam board low relief shapes cut out to see how things would look. I also filled in around the track with cork to bring the surface up to sleeper height for that sunk in look. A OO gauge Dapol canopy has been adjusted to provide covered unloading, though the building behind it in the last pic will want altering. Paul

    The Queen arrives at Hull on the Royal Train hauled by 67005 and 67006. Paul

    Wire in the tube points now working, courtesy of some welding rod and tubes from ear buds! I have put some tape over the ends (fitted both sides of board depending on which side I sit) but I may glue a toggle on or ball as some form of handle. Also fitted the back scene boards so they can slide out for storage. Paul

    Yes they are peco set track points. Paul

    Bitten by the bug I have been building an O gauge micro layout. 2 boards each 30", hinged so they fold up meaning it can be stored away or taken to the caravan! We have 3 sidings and using 4 wagons each one must visit an unloading area at the end of a siding. The sequence takes around 15 mins. Great fun and I will post more as I go along. Paul

    Lots of comment here. www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/54082-new-oo-gauge-class-73/ Paul

    York parcels sidings adjacent to the new signal centre is a modern-day version, with a similar model which has featured in RMWeb. Paul

    I must say that the picture on page 55 is very atmospheric. I swear that I can hear that 37 coming slowly towards me with its pipe work and coupling gently swinging! Paul

    I would have liked an 05 shunter but have just ordered another Dapol 08 for £191. Bit of a difference from £315. Paul
