I'll be absolutely honest : I looked at the first photo and the only thing - the only thing - that gave it away was the mug in the background !

Absolutely first rate stuff there.

Thanks all for the kind words.

It's not portable, if you look at my other posts you will see why.

I have to be honest, I hadn't noticed that mug until you mentioned it, to much hastle to re-take the picture, so I'll Photoshop it later.

This Signature Left Intentionally Blank, but since I have written this and I intended to do it, this Signature is intentionally not blank. Paradox or What?

An excellent work of art.

Absolutely brilliant modelling! :D :D

What did you use for ballast/inter rail cover under the loaders?
Look forward to seeing more of your work

I didn't notice the mug, I was too busy looking at the grim, it's what real railways are made up of.

Done a good job there. Be looking out for an article in the mags about how its done.......
