    You turn them out faster than the railway workshops.
    All you need now is some track (lots of it) for a display. Motorize one of your engines and you could have some real fun.

    Another great build.

    Handy I already have 3 foot of rail made, when I made it for the engine I made extra so just need to come up with a base for it, and ties.

    You certainly do work fast Bruce but never seem to cut corners as the detail and finish is always first class, well done again sir! Cheers, Peter

    Another great build Bruce.

    I seem to be behind on my comments at the moment I wish I could just say that it was due to the work(and not a job work either) that I have been doing in the shed but that is no excuse.
