    Welcome to this blog all about the delights and trials of ready to plop modelling in 00 gauge. I live in Canada so this takes on an added dimension to do with the wonders and failings of the existing international postal services.
     
    The main focus of my interest is the Southern Region during the 1950's - however from time to time I suffer from strange and uncontrollable enthusiasms which have resulted, for example, in a growing modern fleet class 66's and appropriate rolling stock, as well as a large collection of early(ish) BR Blue.
     
    I discovered that the impelling force of nostalgia for the BR that I experienced in my youth needed balancing with something more representative of all that has happened in the British railway system over the seven decades of my life.
     
    The current layout is called "Wyvernstoke" - a fanciful place where three railway regions and London Transport are prone to meet.
     
    A recent addition is a small Western Region circa 1950's shunting layout in O gauge - which will become the main focus of this blog for the forseeable future...
