    3 of the 5 roads on my traverser are now fitted, once they're all there and soldered/tested, there'll be an update on the Scrayingham layout thread (at last!)

      Woo! Your challenge is now to finish the upgrade before the first train runs on Hafod Las Mk.3...

    added a large logo 47 to the stud for Whitborough, another re-numbering project!

  5. JaymzHatstand

    ah, F1 season is back, and as a result, so is a guaranteed modelling seesion every race-day! Pot of tea, fast cars and building wagons!

    article on BBC breakfast about 'men in their sheds' but not a mention of celebrity shed fan Pete Waterman, or model railways in general!

      Or Rug or Brian D (and others) who are frequently a "man in a shed"

    awesome! my internet connecting messed itself while I was updating my blog and I ended up triple posting! Problem solved now (I hope) and multiple entries deleted!

  8. JaymzHatstand

    back from North Wales, three railways done and now a wedding to plan too!

  9. JaymzHatstand

  10. JaymzHatstand

  17. JaymzHatstand

    Enjoyed Thirsk show yesterday, picked up some layout ideas (that I'm keeping a secret from the domestic powers that be!) and dropped off my details for next year! Score!

      I always have this problem when i do my first night shift at work it drives me nuts. Rest in bed all day with the light out works for me :D

      That's my routine for the start of my week, I was just restless and the less I slept, the crosser I got because I wasn't sleeping! Viscious circle!

      It was a spur of the moment purchase really, I just fancied it, which is probably why it's already built, and now decalled. Just loading and weathering to go!

      I'll blog them tomorrow, in theory, my camera has flat batteries at the moment!

  20. JaymzHatstand

    first cranking trip, and first exhibition of the year today, Donny here I come!

  21. JaymzHatstand

    found some slates in the alley behind the house, a fair few doors down so they ain't from my roof, the are however in my back yard! They'll be going in FR slate waggons at some point! Mega score!

      If that is blue/green that will be Coniston/Kirby slate, but if it's the purple/black it will be the Welsh F.R.

    2. JaymzHatstand

      JaymzHatstand

      thanks for that, I think it's more a grey/blue than anything, but it certainly needs a wash, and leaving it in the back yard should sort that out once it rains!

  22. JaymzHatstand

    good day out at NYMR yesterday, got a BOA wagon and some more reference photos of 08850 too!

  23. JaymzHatstand

    had a good day at the KWVR diesel gala yesterday, and today is tracklayig and wiring the fiddle yard (at last!)

  24. JaymzHatstand

      Quite - didn't he mind, or was it some kind of new NHS work experience... 'Well, Mrs Miggins, you've got the flu, but I can give you a prescription for a packet of Parkside Dundas on the NHS - that ought to cure you! ;-)

  25. JaymzHatstand
