I've got (had) 3 kids, it's very similar...

You've got a change in gauge in the trackwork approaching the point? Even in 00 that sounds risky, but in P4 seems suicidal. But it obviously isn't.

Chacewater to Newquay. With all the intermediate halts and stations, and including the branch to Treamble. Yes, I've had a bash at both Shepherds and Treamble, but neither accurately. Space required - a large barn with the single line snaking back and forth. Time & money required - ha, not a chance for either. But I can dream...

Still can't see those rumoured cottages.

I've put the three kits together to form one building. The barn (left) has had the door widened and a window added, the outhouse (middle) will have the rear wall adapted to make a walk through ticket office, and the larger barn (right) will have a door fitted to the outhouse.

Have just ordered a new KX083 Polsue Barn, a KX057 Barn and a KX063 Outbuilding from Scale Model Scenery. These should make a nice little 009 station complex for Newham.

The other option is to glue the buffer beam on with enough glue to provide an electrical insulation from the rail supports, but this is perhaps a tad more difficult in practice. Would also need to be done with the stay, too. PECO SL-340 anyone ? -

Yes, I can't see why not. The only chance of a short is if both wheels bridge the gaps between their live rail and the stop-block rails. Off setting the gaps, even by only a few mm, should prevent this. -

Is that where the spiders cover whole picnic tables in webs?

Just writing our Xmas cards, and most of them have snow scenes. A random question occurred to me - do Australian Xmas cards have beach scenes on ? -
