Thank you Petermac,
I'm getting ready to display and enter these modules in a contest at a US National Model Railroading Association (NMRA) Regional Convention (around here that's a big deal.) I'll be working an all these to make some changes and upgrades I've been planning. I've been tweaking the boathouse to make it more closely resemble the one from the Harry Potter films and I'll be adding foliage color to the station and a few other upgrades like reworking the point rodding. As these develop, I'll post photos up until the convention in October.

I am trying to build the Hogsmeade station on my 5’x 9’ island style layout. I have a question. Where did you find the rock walls on either side of the waiting room and around foot bridge and on either side of platform shelter and used on platform with station? If you had to make the stone walls what did you buy to make them and where from? Also the covered coal shed does it have the coal shoots under it or did you cut them off? Final question. Where did you find the Hogsmeade sign on the side of the coal shed or did you have to make it, and what did you use to make it? Thanks!
Respond to my Questions as soon as you can. Thanks again!  You have a greattalent. Your Hogsmeade station looks very good. Roy Brownson Jr


       Email removed, its best to recieve replies either in post or via PM's Rather than putting your email out in public, also the last post in this thread was back in 2013, so you MIGHT wait a while for a Response from the OP

  Hi Roy,
 
Unfortunately, Clay joined the forum in July 2012 and his last post was in July 2013, so you may not get a response from him. You can try sending him a private message (PM), which should send an alert to his email account. He also has not posted on his Youtube channel in almost eight years, so he may have taken a different direction. To send a PM, just left click on the members name and hit Send a Private Message.
 
Still, that shouldn’t stop you from modelling your interest and Clay’s posts and videos are full of inspiration.
 
On a safety note, it is never a good idea to publish you email address in a post, as you are then open to all sorts of unwanted email finding their way into your inbox from robots and the darker part of the web. You can edit it out very easily, so hopefully no damage will be done.
 
Looking forward to your progress with Hogsmead. Are you going to start a layout thread for it?
 
Best,
 
   Bill


Ah, Matt has beat me to it again. He is a super sleuth!! Do you have a mask and cape Matt, or a dearstalker and a violin?

At 6'4'', Bill is a tall chap, then again, when horizontal he is rather long and people often used to trip over him! . . . and so a nickname was born :)
