A couple of ‘Napier Road’ set in the early 1960’s 7mm scale
‘Megsdorf’ HO scale
‘Coal Hill West’ N Gauge - Again showing you don’t need a lot of space for a home layout.
And model railway exhibitions don’t just interest humans…
A couple of shots of some of the buildings on ‘Garside’ Gauge One
"La Camrienne’ HO scale
’ Americana’ HO scale switching layout.
’ Alexander Yard’ N gauge
‘West Street Station’ OO Gauge

Thanks Gary.
Incidentally, West Street Station was built and is owned by my dustman!

It’s a great little layout, I remember you operating it at York Show this year, I had forgotten about his occupation.
It was good to see lots of youngsters at the show today and while I was there quite a few were impressed with how you operated your fiddle yard / sector plate.
Good to meet up again and to put a face to Rippers (Neil) God willing I will definitely be at Millicent Streets next outing.

While at the Bridlington show yesterday, I ended up buying this ‘ Small Layout Design Construction by James Hilton, I really have no excuse now for saying I don’t have the space for a layout.
Excellent book and, like his other volumes, very inspirational.
No more excuses Gary! ![]()

Had a quick browse last night, quick impressed, and you’re right I have no excuse now!

Not into trains but I am following this thread.
I used to make scenery similar to this for the war hammer nerds back in the 80’s
If he used a small pin hole camera to film his lay out, I think it would be really hard to tell it’s a model,
Exceptional work
Thank you, do you fancy getting back in the war games scene.
Was never into the game,
Just enjoyed making the models look battle hardened,
And People used to pay me to do it was a crazy time,
Things slowed down, so just gave it up,
More progress on the latest boxfile. Next major job is ballasting the track (and without getting the point jammed!)

Thats ace! its a really brilliant idea to use everyday objects, it might be too small for 7mm but 4mm and below, its perfect ![]()

Nice looking A4 bering steamed ![]()
The class 47 looks pretty good too.
Radio 4 and 4 Extra are broadcasting some interesting railway related programmes at the moment as part of the Rail 200 shenanigans.

Not a publication I’ve bought in many a year. The OBA article might be of interest though. A friend of mine in the Hull group buys it so I might ask for a loan.
