Mmm interesting.

I have built this coaling stage out of balsa. When I first built it the sides were too high and of different lengths to make it look a bit worn out. Unfortunately it looked like it should have been manned by the 7th Cavalry againt an Apache attack.

You're certainly rattling on with that WTD. Looks very good. Very envious. R-

Thank you Roger. Nothing anywhere else except track. The backscene is what was already there.
Been painting your loco crew ready to drive a loco I have purchased from Brian in deepest Shrewsbury.

Lovely coaling stage no matter if you think General Custard (sic) should be there.
It looks so well done.

Thanks guys.

That really does look good - I did initially think you had been raiding the coffee stirrer shop again I bought some balsa wood from Hobby Craft a little while ago - I needed a bank loan. When I was a lad a sheet of 1/8th balsa 3ft x 3" cost about 10p - well the equivalent.

I bought a bundle of assorted sheets from a dealer at a RC aircraft show a couple of years ago for a couple of quid. Thought I’d better use it.

That is looking really. good WTD I have not been on here for a while so not seen the progress.

Looking good WTD
