Thanks for the comments. As I said earlier, my layout is located in a shed and suffers every year from the cold. It also doesn't get much running over the winter so the track needs a good clean - even a new loco with a stay alive was struggling today.
I didn't expect too much from the camera due to its price but I was not unhappy with some of the clips I did manage.
At some point I will get to spend some extended time out there and hopefully produce something that will show the full layout.
In the meantime, I've been distracted by a Lego kit - 1682 pieces and 400 pages of instructions.

I've ordered the correct driver numbers and a set of 'qualy' tyres for it.
The memsahib has also decreed that it is too big for the house so a suitable space has been allocated to a new shelf in the shed.

Looking good - I like the Ferrari Daytona SP3 - I don't think I will be tempted though?

The price of that one is eye watering.
I will be getting the slightly smaller Williams FW14B next month and if I can find the space (a challenge) they are bringing out the Ferrari SF24 soon.
