I haven't forgotten the video, but the weather this last week or so hasn't been conducive to playing trains.

Plus, now I've got myself into the job of trying to cure some squeeky floor boards that I've been promising I'd do for a couple of years!
Other jobs do get in the way of model railways! Particularly now the weather has improved and that list of jobs beckons!

You have made a lovely, individual locomotive there Philip. Well worth all the aggravation, and the sound works for me, not being an injineer n all. I think any modeller would be delighted to have that in their fleet. Looks like some gardening is needed on the trackside, mind!😅

Yeah, I don't really want to chop that white heather back until the flowers start to fade, but I am selling moss by the wagon load now!

Well I have to say what a blooming brilliant job you have done Phillip :salute: , from just a couple of photos to the finished loco is something that you should be rightly proud of. I know if I could manage 1/4 of what you do I would die a happy man..... :roll:

Those figures are also superb. Far too much for my simple mind to take in with all those programs you have. I can only just manage Tinkercad....

Waiting patiently for your next project. :thumbleft:

Thanks Rod.
We are all different which is what makes thw world go round and you have one up on me because I sismply can't get my head around Tinkercad - I think I'm too impatient! :dontknow:

As for my next project? I simply don't know atm, waiting for inspiration to bite...
