I never cease to be impressed by your stonework. A lovely scene and setting. Your Mojo’s obviously working again

I have spares in the box so yes.

The mojo is throwing a tantrum - brand new loco failure this morning.

Added a couple of yellow LEDs to give a bit of a glow to the chancel.

Very nice job as always Steve - great to see you back at it !

I have been in Gloucestershire for the past 4 weeks on new grandparent duties and have probably another two weeks to go before I head back north of the border…….have missed my trains and itching to make a start on something to carry me thru the winter.

Cheer Richard

Thanks Richard.
Fortunately no real detail work needed on the church. Two colours from rattle cans followed by a wash applied with a big brush and wiped off with an old fluffy bath towel.

Lovely scene, I can almost hear the Harmonium playing - doubt the church had an organ?
I can see a "Stand Off" occurring! Traction engine (Showmans engine) v Tarmac's Steam lorry.

Yes Brian, I did apply a fair bit of 'compression' to the width of the road.

Turn the showman's engine around and then it leads the steam lorry, outcome = all are happy

No one likes a smart a--e.

I am now embarrassed for not working out that solution myself - proof that you can't teach stupid.

Another casualty.
