Dear Gormo, very interesting idea to put those gates on a piece of heat shrink. Love your scribing work on the cobbles for the wood merchant. Just adds a touch of depth in comparison to the flatter Metcalfe pavement. Beautiful how the whole area is coming together. Cheerio
G`day Vincent and thank you for your kind words. Scribing the paving is the hard way to do things, but it`s the sort of thing where you might have to look at it for a few years, so better to take the hard way and make it look how you want rather than save a couple of hours All the best Cheers Gormo
Nice work Gormo. I think all our layouts are ‘work in progress’. Start my layout 30 years and it’s in perpetual work in progress. You always inspire me and I’m sure many others too. All the best for 2024.
Hi Gormo, I can see a few local kids from the terrace houses at the wall by the footbridge, standing on old orange boxes, to get a good view over the wall to wave and shout to the engine drivers as they move to the coaling area. Love what you have done. Barry.Devon
G`day Barry, I like your suggestion there......a nice little cameo... and I`m happy to know you approve of what I`ve done. All the best mate and stay safe Cheers Gormo
Another source for hedge base is the grey foam packing used in athern boxes. Cut it with a sharp blade to the required shape, spray with brown paint, spray with contact adhesive and roll in fine flock. Small portions of the brown show through to represent the twigs.
G’day Gormo. As always and enjoyable video showing your excellent work. Your superb weathering brings it to life and makes all the difference to the perception of realism. Best, Jason.
You are one of the few who shares without fear or favour, well done you, if I was to offer any comment, you need rubbish and pollution... No timber merchant ever looked so clean and tidy
G`day Karl, That was always the plan, as I alluded to early in the video. I am focusing on the major works for the moment and then will come back to the details when they are done Thanks for your comments. Cheers Gormo
Thanks Paul, Yes I know what you mean, I was feeling the same, however I`ve run out of benches. Need to go to the hobby shop to get some and some Balsa too. Cheers Gormo

The layout is coming along in leaps and bowns, Gormo. You've put in a lot of great features, and they all look the part.
Thanks for that,
Yes it`s getting there slowly but surely.

Hi Gormo. Nice work. You probably already have plans for this, but your garden is crying out for a park bench.
Thanks Paul,
Yes I know what you mean, I was feeling the same, however I`ve run out of benches.
Need to go to the hobby shop to get some and some Balsa too.
