Re: Seaton Junction

Wow - you have captured the "feel" of this station very well. It's quite a big location too. Well done on your scratchbuilt station etc..

Re: Irgendwo in Prussia

Your Baseboard makes me jealous, with such elegant carpentry. Mine always seem so much less elegant. but then I rarely see the construction once the scenery is on. That weathered turntable looks spot on!

Re: St.Oval - A scenic Set Track Oval

Hello Dad-1, As part of my resurgent interest in real Railway Modelling instead of dreaming about it, I looked at your layout on Youtube. It's incredible what can be acheived in such a small space. I found St Oval by searching for the minimum radius for a Hornby 42xx and was pleased that you managed...

Re: Humbrol Range

Hi Phipps, I was bought some by my wife as part of a birthday present. They mix easily, flow well and of course the brushes clean with water so no smelly turps!
