  11. a few more pics. busy outside on the sm32 with this fine weather.
  12. just been working on the branchline to the shed. temporary removable bridge over the 5". will do a better one in the future.
  13. altered the track plan slightly and messed about with the building muckups sorry mockups. got to make a start on the wiring next i think.
  14. decided to move the layout downstairs as its easier to work on.done a bit of track laying, just waiting for a RH point to arrive. bought another skytrex clay hood. was to nice to stay indoors yesterday so had a run on the SM32 garden layout.

  17. been away on holiday for a week. here are some progress pics on the clay dries end. all board tops painted brown ready for track laying.
  18. that second pic looks suspiciously like an alpine rockery
  19. near enough yeah, only the points are setrack and the siding lengths are not like that.
  20. here is a pic you should be able to work it out. i am getting a bit peed with the fact that they are unimog and not electrofrog. do you know how to convert them easily ?. dont suppose you have a spare RH you dont need
  21. started on my light railway as i have stalled on my GWR BLT. track plan is based on wantage. there will be a dairy and china clay sheds. the station will be a shed type with open front, max train lengths are 24". there is a 2 track fiddle yard behind the clay shed. track is peco with shortened setrack points here are some pics with mock ups.
