Hmmm, that seems like a fairly simple solution to implement. I'll start off with a few small parts to test first - with small things it used to be hit and miss, even the same file would sometimes work then fail the next time :dontknow: .

I have transferred the station building to the kitchen for painting, which is now complete:

(long suffering wife)! Since the railway depicts the Ffestiniog in the 1870's (and the real station was built in 1879) I have not attempted any weathering. The climate here will sort that out for me quite quickly!

I have just the guttering to make, and then it can go into place.

The next building for this station - the goods shed - is printing.

The next post has to have it in position permanently on the railway.

The final photos of the station building are now on the "Railway in the Valley of the Mill" thread.

Having had the great pleasure of another visit yesterday, and seen this building in situ, I can say it really is magnificent,
