Re: Time to build a railway...but where?
The cranes (and that new wagon) all look astonishingly good, as we would expect. Terrific!

Knowing nothing about narrow gauge or its history, I find it difficult to comment usefully beyond coming out with stuff like…

Re: Semi-scale BR: The Modernisation Plan
Thanks again, Rik. Sized the emblems in Photoshop and, along with the lining panels and numbers, printed it on to white, inkjet decal paper (artwork below), which can be cut as appropriate. Getting a decent result (matching the printed decal’s grey background to the grey paintwork), I have to say, w...

But it’s not ugly I tell you!
It’s subtle, elegant, refined…
Thank you both.

Re: Semi-scale BR: The Modernisation Plan
Thanks for the encouragement — and stuff.
The lengthened, narrow(er) gauge Leader: a bit scruffy now, obviously, but it’s coming along. Will I have to re-landscape the garden to accommodate it? (Or move?)

Re: Peckforton Light Railway - Video Library
Lots of nicely composed and neatly handled shots, as always, especially all those with no glimpse of the real world looming in the background (I do appreciate how difficult it can be to avoid it). Set-dressing with all that ‘snow’ is extraordinarily convincing… 0-6-0 Harthill is very pleasing too. S...

Thanks Rod. Same here. It all works fine on all my Mac / iOS browsers (though there was a time when Chrome and Firefox would have you pulling your hair out). Different browsers on different OS render differently and things can change whenever there’s an update. I’m afraid the Windows and Android kit...
