Vintage building in "The Collector"

My latest project in the Hornby Collectors Club house magazine, is a build of the 1980s version of the Scenerama kits mentioned on this blog some time ago. 

When moving into the Hornby range, the walls gained a moulded brick finish, rather than the origional stickers, but otherwise are unchanged. There is a bit of flash on the mouldings, which makes me think that the moulds weren't in great shape - hence the model not joining the others in Gaugemasters "Fordhampton" range. 

The finished model is very nice. There are anoying gaps around the bottom of the windows, a consequence of the kit design, but generally, this is a pretty good kit, and the results would sit well on any current model railway.
