You cannot beat "big" steam engines
Great pictures as usual.
Thanks bb. Our younger granddaughter agrees with you, (so long as it's the 1-1 stuff).

Not done much on the layout as other challenges to take care of.
I did purchase a small 0.4.2 locomotive of unknown origin. It runs very well, so really pleased with.

After mopping up operations at Clarence Dock (see my diesel running thread) I ran some steam engines.

Everything ran successfully.
As for some of the buildings etc. it is a case of wait and see whether they can be salvaged or do I renew.

For some of them you could go for a run down look with demolition in progress
and start replacing them with slightly newer style buildings.

The original theme of puddles after the rain is still at Clarence Dock. Puddles are done by a little clear varnish and pieces of plastic over the top. The wet ground is varnish again leaving part as if the ground is drying out.
