Everything  scratch built.

Added two more bits to the layout. 2 loading bays for transfer between wagons and canal barges(still to be built). Crane operator is on tea break that's why so many men sitting around!! 1651411582867.jpg.81160b0f46f67be16a3bf147433a3234.jpg1651411582896.jpg.553ade25087acb434099361f1772c3a1.jpg1651411582893.jpg.dcac44eb2b23edd4a5caf6e795168fc2.jpg1651411582890.jpg.9dee64bef93b5ee13bee30bdded160de.jpg1651411582888.jpg.14d53220bab78011ee70d489ec432058.jpg1651411582885.jpg.70d79853eff52903f6285653925a9956.jpg1651411582882.jpg.d5adea000be066b4db783cbb7e932e21.jpg1651411582879.jpg.c8af0c188a13306a771a95d6d81d153f.jpg1651411582877.jpg.eddd9066318a49b82e253606c42238bd.jpg1651411582874.jpg.3d7fd4ff109a13fd6523c8cc1207dfc5.jpg1651411582872.jpg.695a843d4a9b00ab6fc5b2060794be70.jpg1651411582869.jpg.a723185804d2b213028f66b5677a1e34.jpgaround!!

I don't think I've posted this pic before but even if I had it'll probably have been lost in the recent web hosting kerfuffles. It's a partially complete N/2mm scale scene of a gas holder station and is mostly scratch-built. The holder is heavily bashed from a plastic kit by converting what was the above ground water tank in to a more appropriate and correct three lift type with below ground level tank:

These buildings for Kensington Olympia ( N gauge ) have been largely finished for a while, and have previously appeared here. They now sport all of their chimney pots…just waiting for me to knock them off!

My four scratchbuilt signalboxes. All based on actual prototypes. Built from card using Scalescenes components. All of these have been built from photos of the originals. I use Coreldraw to create my own kits, which are hugely influenced by the way Scalescenes design theirs.

Below, this based on Tulse Hill. Fitted with interior and lighting

This is based on Farncombe East. With full interior and lighting, though that was added after this photo was taken.

Based on Broad Clyst. No interior yet, but this has lighting.
