Nothing much to report of late. Work is progressing slowly on the signal box for Boxer Bay. Here's a couple photographs taken from today's operating session. BBR Manning Wardle "Niki" on a short goods and one of my favorite wagons I built, the Parkside GWR horse box.
It's been way too long since the last post. Work, gardening, and loss of motivation (for a brief spell) all contributed. The motivation came back right away when I was finally able to run a couple trains for half an hour and there it was. So onto a new project, the signal box for Boxer Bay. I had a Peco kit given to me and decided to use it, as the size seemed suitably small for a light railway terminus. The interior kit available from Peco seemed quite expensive, especially when factoring in postage to the US. Sticking to a strict budget in these days of high prices, I decided to make up some rudimentary interior with nothing more then some bits of scrap wood and paint. I figured once the roof is on and windows glazed, "it'll be good enough", to my eyesight. The camera might say otherwise. A couple railway photos tossed in just for good measure. Cheers.
