A daily updated blog typed by someone with painty hands, oil under his fingernails and the smell of solder in his nostrils who likes making all sort of models and miniatures. And fixing things.

Lundgreen Wood in NGW
Building the Billy Bookcase layouts for BRM has been fun, but as nearly every picture needs to be a construction shot, there's not much chance for something "pretty".
Fortunately, for my 009 layout, I persuaded the editor of Narrow Gauge World that a feature would be a good idea, and it's now in the October issue.
This gave me the chance to dig out all my 009 stock to pose on the model for some photos, most of which ended up in the article. 3 images didn't make the cut though (I don't mind, I always provide too many) so I'm putting them on here for you to enjoy.

Very nice and I love the Coferna - did you do an article about modelling one?
Ah, a Wills taxi man's rest house. I don't think that I've ever seen one on a layout, but then they are very London specific. Oddly enough I commented the other day that they would somehow suit a Heywood style minimum gauge estate railway, as a store or workshop.
A few shots for 009 News?
Nice to see the Coferna, an early EuroNG kit of my design, I've a vague recollection of you buying one or at least talking t me about it many years ago at ExpoNG.
I love this little layout. One of those layouts where I think 'I wish I'd built that...'
