Re: Millsend Layout - OO Gauge Sixties Midland
Point rodding is looking good Jim. Suitably dirty
I like the small touches like the speed restriction etches.
Top notch pal...

Re: Hood-dale Main - V3 is imminent!!!
Hi all. Just a brief update on the state of things. Well, I have four times the space I previously had. Nope, the loft hasn't grown, I have decided to scrap the start I've just made and go to N gauge! I know it's a word change for someone as ham fisted as me but my love for the long trains has won o...
