Not posted any modelling stuff for ages, so here I am building an 009 skip wagon from a Parkside Dundas kit, which I must have had for about thirty years. Wish I'd built it then, as my eyesight was so much better!

A side project from my 4 wheel coach project. Glued together the remnants, with some further cutting and shutting to make a narrower 1 compartment coach, which will eventually ride on a shortened Peco n gauge wagon chassis. #BSMRGUK #TMRGUK

Will the next reminder be at 8 days to go perhaps?

4 wheel coach project continues. Reshaped the roof profile, added compartment partitions, and just started putting detail back on the ends. #BSMRGUK #TMRGUK

First look at my cut and shut 4 compartment coach taking shape. After I have done the second one I might glue the remaining pieces to make a 1 compartment coach! Long way to go though! #TMRGUK #BSMRGUK

Bit more work on the four wheel coach project. IPA bath to remove some paint, and here I'm carving off the end details before sanding them smooth. Choppy chop time tomorrow! #TMRGUK

Not done much model railway stuff recently, so let's rectify that. Some old Hornby 4 wheel coaches from the Ron Lines rummage box, going to cut and shut them to create two 4 compartment coaches. Cheaper than buying new Hornby generic coaches (or is it really?) #TMRGUK

Small industrial #modelrailway (former) junction named locally after the pub. Modelling a micro layout in OO gauge. #TMRGUK #BMRGUK
OO GWR branch line set on the Dorset/Devon border. Set in the mid-1930s but with considerable artistic licence. Trains also running in over the Southern Railway and Somerset & Dorset Joint Railway. Regular visitors when the railway operates freelance.
