A couple of uses for a Tunnock's chocolate wafer wrapper...

I enjoy using those too. Your folded tarp is very convincing - and an excuse for another tasty snack!

Flew with Logan Air to Orkney back in September and the complimentary tea or coffee come with a Caramel wafer. There are cheaper ways to buy them, of course.🤔☺️😋

Kilmore is booked for the North Down Model Show at Bangor Grammar School, 28 & 29 March 2026 so there's a list of things that still need doing if we're to get it there.

By moving some furniture out of the front room I made space to set the layout up in its entirety so I could do some debugging. And heck was it needed! Dead locos, derailments, dodgy track alignment and duff soldering among other things but the snag list is getting shorter and I was able to just watch trains going round for a change.

Hope to see some of you in Bangor at the end of the month. Here's hoping this whole caboodle fits in the car😄

Delighted to see the layout in person today, it looks fabulous and will be a big hit at this and all other shows!!
 

By far the most authentic recreation of the BCDR.  Great stuff, Alan!!

The first rain-free sunny day in ages so a dry run at packing up Kilmore for transport. And yes!! It fits in the car. Phew!
