Not only me, but everyone.

I know what you mean. I'm very slowly making a scratch-built tank wagon for my narrow gauge board but forgot to take photos of the process. I'll post a picture one day when it's finished, but one picture does not a thread make... maybe I'll tack it onto my layout thread.

I will be test running on St Oval later today.
Perhaps I'll do a video ?

Gauntlet down Phred !!

The VIDEO !!
I managed to do it, zero track cleaning needed today although the
amount of dust is becoming embarrassing.

nice wagons, and its a lovely little layout as well. showing you do not need every square inch to have track in it

So much to see in such a small space. Great stuff!

As for throwing down the gauntlet, my wife will tidy it away before I ever notice it...

Sorting out the garden seed box I came across an opened packet of
White Mustard seeds, dated 2017. This was from adding a wagon load
of agricultural produce when I was working on our clubs West Bay layout.
This is just the thing I need to add to at least one of my latest metal
wagon builds.

Here photographed in very poor light on my NCMR circle.



Tomorrow I might buy another packet, I think I need a few more in here
and then I have to decide if I add to the other new build. These wagons
intended for use on Ivor as & when, (IF), I ever get it finished.
