  1. Sorry its been a while. Detachment after detachment. End of the Nimrod and a Posting to RAF Brize Norton have all got in the way. With a new house we have a change of location and a change of plans. The new Meadow Heath is more advanced than the previous and is also now in the house so even easier to work on, instead of being out in the cold in the garrage. Trains have already moved on this one using DCC. Here we go: The new track plan is quite simplistic, with 2 running lines and a very simple goods yard. The buildings are from the new Great Central Bachmann range. I have repainted them in to a rarely see British Railways Eastern Region Scheme. Set in a fictional late 1950s were the take over of the line by the London Midland Region of BR did not take place. Stock will be mainly Eastern Region. A3s and V2s with a selection of Tanks with O4s running Windcutters and an occasional Hall or Castle running through services from Banbury to Leicester (Central). The fictional station is located on the GC's "London Extention" between Calvert and Finmere. I have also created a Signal Box Diagram. Mainly to help with signal placement but I have had an idea on how to make it work.
  2. A post for Lancasters? I'll throw mine into the fold, seen here before but no harm in repeating. 1/48 Diorama of PD259 463 Sqn RAF Waddington, This model now resides with the remains of the real aircraft in the heritage center at RAF Waddington Also a 1/72 version presented to the land owner who's land the real aircraft was found on

The model depicts PD259 JO-G of 463 Sqn and will be on display with recovered artefacts from the real aircraft, most of which I helped out in retrieving.
