Western region branch line terminus to FY

The picture is of the South Wales Union Canal basin where the local coal merchant has his yard.  Coal arrives by rail for onward delivery by road and narrow boat.  There is also a timber merchant who takes delivery of wood from the forrest further up the canal.

Hi Griff and welcome to the club.If you could upload photos to the gallery rather than use an attachment this will save forum bandwidth.

Nice Griff….
Superb water in the canal basin.
Are the narrow boats made from card?

Hi Marty,  yes they are Scalescenes TO18. Canal boats & lock.
I only built 3 boats and changed the names on two to represent the coal and timber merchants own boats.  The water is only painted onto a piece of melamine shelf, a mixture of brown & green then given several thick coats of polyurethane varnish..
Incidentally, how do I post pictures on to the forum gallery, this one was an attachment.  I can't see where to post them properly.   Griff.
