The nights are drawing in and the weather is getting cooler – perhaps it's time to get ourselves inside and start (or finish!) that layout? You might want a little encouragement, advice or inspiration to go with it, too! Our November 2020 issue of BRM (and BRM TV to subscribers) has it covered. Inside, we explore the sun, sea and sand of 'St Ives' on the Cornish coast, beautifully modelled in OO gauge. 'Leysdown' in P4 shares the story of how an interwar-era layout has been rejuvinated and 'Blakeney' in O gauge rekindles the forgotten railways in the Forest of Dean. *** Don't forget, subscribers have exclusive access to BRM TV.

LAYOUTS 'St Ives' (OO) Every day is a visit to the seaside with this exceptional coastal-themed layout, constucted by a returnee modeller... 'Leysdown' (P4) Cascading from club to private ownership after a healthy tour of the exhibition circuit, this interwar-era layout has refreshed its envious looks. 'Blakeney' (O) Re-discovering an interest in the forgotten railways of the Forest of Dean, Alan Davies was upbeat about the challenges faced by his change of scale. PRACTICAL BRM Our Practical BRM content this month explores a scratch-built station, weathering a salt wagon, replicating fire, making a bonfire and building bridges! Building Etwall station Howard Leader describes the methodical approach used to scratch-build this model of a GNR station and its platform shelter in 4mm:1ft scale, which required 2,397 parts! How to weather a salt wagon Following the adaptation of the Hornby models, Michael Russell turns his skill to the decoration of these heavily-weathered items of rolling stock. How to replicate fire Few animations on a layout are as commonplace as fire with its many uses. Howard Smith explores the subtly-varied options available to modellers. How to create a bonfire It’s our November issue, and Bonfire Night is soon here. For the arsonists among you, here's how to create a miniature bonfire... How to build bridges Sometimes, only a bespoke structure will do the job. Phil Parker takes his time and produces a unique model at low cost.
