Cups and saucers are actually one thing i've sorted, the first edition of 16mm today I got has "a page from Colin Binnie's scrapbook" showing how to make them. Might try a different approach, showing food in a labeled box on the serving area rather than on the tables.

One thing i have thought of is lego, i'm going to use the lego tools from my extensive lego collection (mostly lego trains - i even have a lego double fairlie and a Garratt (though the garratt isn't very good)). Just a thought but the little glasses look like wine glaases and there are mugs. not sure about the scale though.

Please put those pics up,

I made a lego double Fairlie ( but with road wheels)
might be worth looking through my lego collection to see if there is anything of use

WOW!! THATS AWESOME! All i have is a Hogwarts Express as my lego model. But as the kit came with no tender, i added a bunker on't back.

BTW, 1 suggestion: For the spectacle plates, why not move the windows further out, and put the red colums in the middle...

Thanks for the suggestion, but i'm going to leave it as is seeing as i built it when i was about 12 it reminds me of my childhood and when i used to make full Lego villages on my bedroom floor with pubs and houses and the railway being the centre feature of course.

Ah great times - now i got my garden railway instead!!

(and before anyone asks i'm not thinking of selling my Lego as i would want to try and pass it on through generations - mind you i could buy another 16mil live steamer with the proceeds!)

aha, seems sensible! im keeping my lego too for generations to come... although I have come across a lego motor thingy that could be useful for something...
