Location
North of Annesley Junction (Near Manchester, actually.)
Interests
The Great Central Railway, pre 1923.
(Most other railways are of interest too, particularly if they have steam engines, but I can't model them all.)
Bury Corporation Tramways 1903-1949
My other great interest is the middle ages, especially England and Wales in the 14th/15th century.
I write historical novels. Two have been published.
I also enjoy walking, beer and eating out. Sadly I can no longer walk as far as I did or drink as much as I should like.

Damn. Just sprayed a wagon, with an aerosol, and got a crack-glazed effect. Never happened to me before, honest, but I must have done something wrong. I bet if I'd wanted that effect, I'd not have been able to achieve it. Ah well, suppose I shall have to invest in paint-stripper and start again.

  Damp/high humidity atmosphere? Wagon slightly damp?

  Possibly primer insufficiently dry, though it seemed fine. Anyway, lesson learned, leave 24 hours between coats.

  You may have 'discovered' a weathering technique?
