One thing ive been trying to do this year is to get round to finishing off some of those kits that have been part/mostly built and have been sat in boxes for a while ( Years in some cases ). One i have not got to the paint stage is this Slaters Midland Railway 10T fruit van. One of the layoust i own is Wainthrop Brdige which is Lanchaisre and Yorkshire Railway set in the 1920s and it has a few out of area items. The model its self has had a few extra bits added like wire handrails and some car wheel weights to take it to 60 ish grams. Next up is a coat of primer to check for any stray bits of glue or something that should be there and then on to the top coat.

Had the chance to spend a bit more time on the body of the CCT Then moved on to the underframe, with the beginings of the brake gear being fitted.

Been a while and a few thinsgs have been progressing along. Need to remember to keep you all updated. One such item is this L&YR CCT, one of 2 kits that I have to do. Made a start on the side frames and ends

Hi all, Had the layout out at Railex and managed to grab some photos of some new bits of rolling stock that have been added to the roster. The first one was a guest loco that was on pilot duty for the weekend.

Hi all, Not sure where the end of last year went, but here are a couple of photos from the Falkirk show.

So its been a while since the last post. Been a busy year and another show is fast aproaching with Falkirk only a few days away.

You never know what the future holds A view of the front of the layout.

So the dust has settled from GETS, which was the last of the 2024 bookings for Charwelton into the 80s. Lots of intrest in the layout at the show with a crowd along the front all day on both days. Didnt get that many photos as we were just running as many trains as we could. One of the team managed to get this shot of the MGR working on the up.

So with less thn 6 days to go till the show, what do you do, decide to take a siganl off as after it be ing worked on before its vome loose on the base. The only signal to be screwed to the base, the rest being soldered. First up, apart from making a hole on the layout, is to make a new base for it. Glad its the weekdn as i can spend most of it fitting this back in place........I hope.
-
The days are ticking away and the siganl is progressing. The new base is installed ready to have the new hole cut in it. The siganl its self has been reassembled and is a lot smoother and hopefully you cant tell that its been apart.

Thank you for the kind comment. At times we do wonder if it is, as the look out keeps making a bid for freedom but always ends up in the trees close by...
