Is that repaint job you are doing not finished in time for the big exhibition? Do you think that running it half complete would attract scorn from the purists? Then just show them this and tell them where to stick their opinions!!! https://www.donaldstirling.me.uk/ScottishRailways/Diesel-Traction/Scottish-Electric-Multiple/i-Q2P6FGg/A Jim

Hi all By 2018 standards it has been a while since I have posted on the layout thread, but I have been plodding on, just what I was doing hasn't been that interesting ! Continuing the "no brickpaper" rule for the Allenshaw Inglenook I have been building the bridge parapets in wood and plasticard. The plasticard being used was that suggested by Martyn and as used on his layout, Slaters 7mm scale Cotswold Stone which looks not unlike 4mm scale Ashlar, once painted it should look good. = Cheers Martyn!! As the Inglenook board is not a plain rectangle I have formed some timber to fill the notch that is necessary to fit the board around the roof beams. Hopefully more updates soon Cheers Jim

Spent the weekend binge watching Luthor as I had never watched to before, by the end I was sure the producer was a railway enthusiast, nearly every scene had some type of EMU in the background Jim

There used to be a massive layout at New Lanark, last time I looked at the website there was no mention of it, so I assume it has been dismantled as well Jim
