That explains it.

Thanks Alan. I was getting bit frustrated, tried a few hints but decided to come away for a bit.

Hopefully a tad different here.

As it stands, Mutton and Bleat Wharf are pretty much done, barring some details being added.

The next chapter will be a bit different in terms of prototype by I hope anyone seeing it will see the family connection.

Scenic section will be 120cm x 40cm, the same as Mutton and Bleat. The new layout will share the same fiddle yard and lighting pelmet as Bleat and this should speed things up.

Small, shortwheel base locos are the order of the day so running needs to be just so or I will be grumpy.

I would describe that as non-standard .

 

[GrahameH]

Is it a big one or the proper Size one?

Arrived this morning Rob, and it's a small one. Might need some of the dirty treatment at some point ?

p.s. note it's not Green !

I have to say Grahame, I am intrigued as to where this will appear........

And it would look nice in a slightly grubby form.....

Rob.

Morning gents.

I intend to post more hereon. Getting a tad messy on the other channel and I've decided to step away for a bit.

Rob.

The problem is down to the inverse square not enough trees issue.

There may be trees on this one........but no sheep will be in them.

Disappointed. Another opportunity missed.

Nice little loco's and Peckett fest being employed here.

Once they are run in their presence convey a believable atmosphere in my eyes. Less is more !
