I have developed a habit of falling over while sober...its part of my cmt, .footdrop.
Ect ...but its a bit of a bugger when the same knee keeps getting hit..anyhow, I thought sod it, and tried to install the railway terrace, with a fresh busted knee..
While moving the older resin buildings, they decided to revert back to kit form.

I have been unsuccessfully searching for a picture of the cinema, I think in North London that was advertising Star Wars, and where a couple of rogues changed some of the letters round overnight so that in the morning they were advertising Straw Ars :p:p

Those terraced houses are absolutely brilliant Mike. A shame about those resin ones. Just shows how much better foam board is!

I'm always amazed at how quickly your buildings take shape. Good job the cinema isn't brick built! You'd have gone cross eyed trying to scribe them all.

The cinema is going to look great when it's done.

Will the viewers be enjoying the rumble of trains passing overhead whilst watching a film? Reminds me of the flee pit at Wembley that had a tin roof, you did not want to be watching a film during heavy rain. Though yours looks certainly upmarket from that flee pit in Wembley.

The chapel where I went as a lad had the SR suburban line into Kingston on an embankment just behind the chapel - fortunately the sounds were only a gentle rumble and whine, and that none too frequent on a Sunday in 50s and 60s Britain :nod::nod:

But, by the same token, a visiting preacher on a Sunday evening would often expect to come by train as car ownership was still not the norm. This often meant that he arrived early, and my Grandfather would go down half an hour before the service to make a cup of tea for such visitors ;)
