Beautiful work! It's not easy to do, but very rewarding.
I'll admit to cheating by making my designs in the computer, then tracing it out. Drawing it by hand isn't something I can do too well on 16mm scale shopfronts. Haven't yet tried it on something larger..
Looking forward to seeing more.

Re: Time to build a railway...but where?
I'd imagine you must have a portal to another dimension hidden away somewhere. No idea how you manage to fit such a vast collection in that shed with the indoor section of your line.

Re: New Guy Introduction - Steam Newbie
My Roundhouse Bundy Fowler was bought through Anything Narrow Gauge, they sell a wide variety of used live steamers. Andy (I think that was his name :scratch: )tests and fettles every loco before sale. I mention this because like you, I am not in the UK. The loco was very well packed and has been a ...

Really liking the even-narrower-gauge mine tramway. Miniature trees are always nice to see, too.

Re: Mamod Quarry loco - hellllp!!
I couldn't help you on the boiler threads, but as for the running, your video gives me the impression it just needs a good few (8+) hours of running in.

Re: Simplex Yard Shunter
11/04/24 Cheers gents, glad you like it. I really do. :) Those of you keen to see weathering will either be intrigued, or disappointed - maybe both. I've decided for this one, to try something new. Something a little different from my growing little fleet. I want this one to look like a recent repai...

Re: Gmeinder & Co loco
The all-over grey really suits the loco, and adds to the gruff charm of the thing.
I will admit I'm no fan of cheapy sound, but through the video, that doesn't seem half bad.
That quarry railway is really neat, too.
