How about suggesting SWMBO gets all her friends round because as we all know "many hands make light work" :laugh:

I finally managed to get all of my signals, and my 'signal box' working.

Took delivery of my new Class A1, 60156 'Great Central' (GF 372-801) and grabbed 30 minutes to check all was well. Had to clean the track first.

Very pleased - super-quiet with excellent slow running.

Now packed away until whenever time lets me back to do some playing trains proper modelling .

Also got 'permission' to bulk buy 30 yards of flexi for my project layout, slated for 2014/15!

To keep elf and safety happy Paul, should your chair not have five legs  ;)

cheers John.

I have run some trains  :o I've been so bogged down with lighting buildings, soldering SMDs, learning how to air-brush buildings, etc that I lost sight of the purpose of it all.

Really enjoyed seeing Eurostar and Thalys racing round the track and then Voyager and Desiro  :)

Just one Pendolino, give it to me, a beautiful train, from Italy

Waiting for the glue to dry before finishing the baseboard.
I keep forgetting to add Cheers Mike on the end of my posts....

So.....  Cheers Mike

I didn't take a vid of it but here is a link to the first Wormfest video (which was taken some time ago - before I decided to light the layout)

Swindon works mode for the bank holiday

So far finished off a GWR monster and a 419 MLV and done various bits of work on the TPO queue. Need to find a good way to make the mesh for the nets.

Pinch the mesh from a BRUTE kit ?

The fishing nets on a pole that kids use at the seaside and streams have a good size mesh
