My railway is looking terribly this winter as is the garden. Suffering alot from neglect and the chill.

Your garden looks good in comparison - at least there is green!

vegitation and rabbit activity has stopped my railway running but a new engine will giveme the reason to get it back running.

Thanks very much chaps

Here's a photo of the "latest acquisition" which made the pose possible - a GRS Pickering

Superb posed pic, I approve. But do I also detect commonsense is prevailing & you have gone dual gauge? :D :twisted: :roll: :D

(P.S.. Yes I know it's actually butterly!

I like your thinking, but no

(And yes, I do know that you already knew that

)
But keep trying - you never know, one day I might just lift all my track, replace all my wheelsets, and the Bertie chassis, and the Mamod cylinders and wheelsets, and suprise you

Exactly which part of "no room" do you not understand??

Very little, for I play tetris! I'll get my coat..

I may well be calling on your "Tetris" skills to try and find a space for my goods shed! The re-modelling of Westwood Station has left me without anywhere immediately obvious to site it!

Well, it's in

All still very raw, but here's the results of the re-alignment so far.
A widened loop at Westwood with an added goods platform;

The Office;

The town section;

And here's the "entrance to the new loop;

The loop leaving the woods before crossing the bridge;

The new station layout looks bloomin brilliant

hussra · Post by **hussra** » Mon Dec 17, 2012 5:06 pm

Yup, really liking the revised station area! Great stuff.

Why the widened loop. Like the good shed siding alot. I wish Peco did tighter radius points.
