I think we should get back to "Coventry Model Railways"

I really enjoyed your fantasy too Philip what a great lay out also great film footage of it all.

Cool video of your track Phillip. Liked the music too.

Dutchman and MikeH, the model car sets look like Scalextric with zebra crossings and buses LOL.

Or, Savoy Brown's "Train to nowhere"? One of my top ten favourites of all time

Hi all A class 37 at about to cross Penny Park viaduct. & with Mike in mind, West country has been shunted into Longford Park whilst the Bramble Lane depot supervisor reads the maintenance handbook, whilst searching through his socket sets.

Unfortunately, the manual had pages missing, so the engineer decided to put up a notice, smack bang in the middle of the smokebox access door which read "Barry and Bust'..

Guys, Having a mate who's grandson is interested in model railways , do any of you know of any local exibitions/layouts that he could take him to see, any info greatly appreciated

Bourton on the water.He can even play around with it. My four year old grandchildren had great fun a fortnight ago. Gramps had quite a good time as well.

Phillip never has the wrong kind of snow on his branch line of a branch line of a branch line..
