My goods yard broke so I had to rebuild it and I thought I’d share what I learnt 😊

A Good Yard
Quick recap, I discovered the cork my goods yard was built on was peeling off the base Layre. The whole thing was rilipped out and redone with a thick layer of gravel directly on to the base board. The goods shed now stands on plaster rather than cork. I am please with how this looks, just waiting for it to dry so I can play 😁

Port of Bristol
Having had Hornby’s PBA 39 for a while, I now have the matching wagons from Rapido and I’ve built Dapol’s Dockside Crane. These loog great together and I look forward to making a Dockside diorama

Hornby Sentinel
For the second time I’ve chipped the Sentinel l, this time I’ve removed the DCC socket as the wiring kept coming apart and have hard wired the chip.

Dapol Dockside Crane
An early birthday present. I have a serious addiction to Kitmaster kits

The open countryside
Soon my trains will be able to pass through the station and in to (but not through… Not yet) the open countryside
