  1. Dear All, I had the pleasure of meeting David on Saturday at Doncaster Racecourse. Arigna is impressive in the photo's, but it is just as good in the flesh. Despite the obvious simplicity of the track layout, it is obvious that the Operator can get quite absorbed in operating the station, especially with eight different trains (including railcar's) to run. Any errors were down to distraction on my part! Anyway, here's some of my pictures from my phone. Paul 34F
  2. David, Apologies for not writing sooner. I've been laid low with a bad head cold. Thank you for your explanation on using the DAS clay. The PVA is probably the key to the cracking problem. The layout is starting to look like a classic already. The scenery is very impressive. Paul 34F
  3. David, Looking forward to seeing Arigna and yourself at Doncaster on Saturday. Have a good journey Paul 34F
  4. David, The loco shed looks impressive. How do you stop the Clay drying out to quick and cracking? Paul 34F
  5. This looks promising. I've been looking at obtaining a Cutting machine, but didn't know about the Cricut. Time for some research, I think! Keep the pictures coming please. Paul 34F
  6. David, Thank you for posting your preserved article on Castle Rackrent. I have never managed to catch up with it in the original format. I've seen articles on the expansion. Mr Chown's bridges are extraordinary and very slightly intimidating. I've no hope of making anything in that manner. Paul
  7. David, This layout is developing nicely. Just reminds me that I need to focus more on my own project, but that seems to be very slow going. Must be all the other things I have to do first. Is the structure between the Loco shed road and the platform to be a water tower? At the moment in seems to restrict a view into the shed. I was just thinking that the area between the turntable and the front of the shed is a great place to park a locomotive whilst the crew enjoy their break. Paul
  8. David, looking good. Very inspirational Paul
  9. David, Looks like I will be making a trip to Doncaster in February. The nearest show to my current location. All the best for Manchester Paul
  10. I would just like to say, I have read this thread throughout in the last few days and I'm so inspired I had to join the site. A fantastic representation of an Irish back water. I hope to catch up with the layout and Mr Holman sometime in 2017. Now to look up the workshop articles. Paul 34F p.s. Mike 84C will be pleased to know that I'm finally on here. I must arrange to meet you again.
