cheers guys.. got the second section off brick walling made to day.painted and installed ..going for the idea that the railway buildings are brick, as it cost more than local stone.which is why the village is stone, but the railways brick..and ians station is brick,so..ran the new lined u class with the red/cream coaches..

 

[mike]

well, it seemd a good idea paul
today ,ive been modifiynig a pola signalbox...from its original bage concreat, and red roof.. into something more in keeping with lazy..it has to be similiar to ians station...so brick,..with stone cornerscleaned, primed in gray ..painted out the bage marked out the bricks.. and off we go..its going to have a small retaining wall on 2 sides, so it can be set into the senary..

 

[mike]

so next the retaining wall, its going to hug the signal boxs,along 2 sides..the idea is, the signal boxs is set into a banking.. plastic is fANTASTIC.. marked out, in pencil ,cut out, more marking out, of the brick lines, then score in the brickwork.. pillars are added ,and scribed in, glued into places, capping stones are made for the pillers, and added.. painting, gray prima. then aded the brick colours.. the roof to the signal boxs was repaired, sealed in place, new bardge bords cut,fixed, and the roof re painted, to a more suitable, slate colour..lead flashing added..still got a few bits to do.. small steps
