Sometimes it’s hard work keeping the Brians happy.

WTD, thanks for pointing out that I could have done it better! Still some odd bits of weathering to complete but that’s for tomorrow.

Crikey that was quick. You don't hang about do you Steve.

Nice one Steve, took you a bit longer than usual. Looks good.

Ta Brian. Had to fit in a shift at work and a trip to the model shop before I started. Then 45 minutes hard graft - just for you.

Mind you, I needed the prompt - my brain tends to work in straight lines and right angled corners, if you know what I mean.

In that case it was quick work. I’m programmed for straight lines and right angles as well.

Like the ground work, the varying textures and shades.

All looks good to me.

Looks great as always, but should the white single post not now be moved to ensure the gate is held parallel to the angled crossing when the gate is open - this would prevent potential running off the crossing boards onto the rails.

……. to be honest, I just hate to think of you having nothing to contemplate or do - LOL

But what about the side where there won’t be a gate?
Modern crossings don’t bother about stopping traffic from going on the track, always thought it was a bit strange.

OK, OK, I’ll move the post!
