No progress to report, a depressing week for many reasons. It was quite a tonic to just sit, shunt some wagons, and watch the trains pass by, while sipping a drink & some jazz on the Hi-Fi. It is good to have a hobby to retreat into at times. The magical world of an O scale model railway is what works for me. What works for you ?
A GWR 45xx brings in the goods to Windrush Junction, while Manning Wardle Niki departs Boxer Bay with the branch goods. Both lovely models by Dapol & Minerva.
A little diversion took me into building a classic Motorkits 1934 SS1 Airline Saloon white metal car kit. The inspiration for this little deviation was a happy memory of seeing a similar car at our local vintage sports car shop. I should point out that seeing such cars on the Oregon coast is quite rare to say the least ! The model built up nicely with little trouble, always nice to see Made in England. I feel the paint finish came out okay for a model railway, it's a little more glossy then the photos let on. Now back to trains !
