Steve,

The addition blends in very well with the station scene - very nice work as always.

Thanks Richard, although I am questioning whether I should bite the bullet and build the layout the 'right' size in the first place. I keep finding the need for small scenic bits to be added to what is effectively just an oval track only 15" wide and now end up patching in a series of scenic dioramas.
This particular module only requires slight patching in of the scenery to match the existing board but at some point I have to get under the board to solder a couple of wires for the shed lights and even though it's all transportable, it's an absolute pain. Really not looking forward to that bit.

Applied some static grass and some road markings - all done.

Love the shape of the new board and what you’ve modelled. Makes for a very interesting corner but not corner shaped (if you know what I mean!)

Hi Steve - I'm always amazed at how you start something - and in no time it's finished. Looks great. Barry

I have the old location of the shed to ‘repair’ - I have a small ‘bump out’ there already but I suspect it will be replaced by something more shapely before much longer.
Probably have it finished by teatime. :D

Really great use of the inside of a corner, this could well be a trend setter! Scene looks so natural. Excellent.

‘‘Twas Christmas Day in the workhouse”....well Boxing Day really, and I finished off the workers cottages in the area where the goods shed used to be.
