just need the time now

Ah, time. Almost as short as cash. And energy. :sleep:
But you've been doing a cracking job.
Got my railway basically running this summer. Was fun watching things move. Now I have to find T, C & E to add lineside items to give some visible purpose for the trains.

the light ones are Cooper Craft - loads of detail, the black one is Binnie - more robust and easier to construct, but less detail
I've got a few more of each to make, paint and rust, and will probably adapt some of the Binnie ones to be slab wagons

its a POLA crane kit which I bought from Jeremy - although he doesn't have it listed at pesent

I did make a corrugated roof for it instead of the continental style octagon supplied , but I think it looks better without - see this thread :-
