Hi Tim,
I’m doing two, this one will be 7444 of Carmarthen shed, the second will be a South Western engine either 45 or 46, yet to be decided.
The supports are part of his normal range, and if not in stock, have a relatively short lead time as I understand.

A bit more woodland dropped into Shelfie2. The backscene and lights have all been changed in the past month, and were well received at a 2FS group meeting recently. A bit more work on the backscene to do and final details, then it’s on to Shelfie3, which has already had the station throat track work commenced.03541EE9-598B-4AFF-916B-922E48DEC57B.jpeg

Just read the note to Shelfie1. I'm a big fan of this layout, it showed what could be achieved in a small space with regards to both operation and scenically.
The bit about loaning the layout was pretty moving, the fact it gave someone pleasure and comfort in difficult times goes to show what a positive impact our hobby can have.
Well done Paul.

If I can get Blakeney to look anywhere near as good as your FoD layouts I shall be more than happy.

Once the etches have grabbed, I use a hair dryer gently wafted over it and it cures the varnish faster. Once set an overspray with satin or matt varnish will blend the high gloss into the overall body colour. Pictured above is one of the three starting the weathering.
2006, blimey that’s a while on the shelf of doom!
