Hi all
Fantasy or not, I do like to think of Hall Brooks as our forum railway. So many of you have contributed to the way that ideas have come & gone. Fantasy is not a bad thing I believe, provided we know that it is fantasy. After all, why read a novel if we cannot get inside of it ourselves. Our railway is like a novel to me, where in my mind & I hope yours too, you can act out where you want to be or who to be seeing.
ps We still have a vacancy for the proprietor of the fish & chippy, formally the Masons Pub.

Cool video of your track Phillip. Liked the music too. May I recommend for any future vids - A Shropshire Lad (orchestral) and A Lark Ascending as your cameos are the epitome of England during a gentler era and those pieces would fit very nicely.
Dutchman and MikeH, the model car sets look like Scalextric with zebra crossings and buses LOL.

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'.. |

I had to laugh at the 'Holiday Highway' set. You could play 'let's get stuck behind the caravan and the lorry on the A38 all the way to Bridgewater and Taunton'.. |

Funnier still if there's a model bus replacement for the model train, cancelled because of the wrong sort of model snow on the line
Phillip never has the wrong kind of snow on his branch line of a branch line of a branch line.. |
