About time. It's a layout well worth a magazine spread.

Cheers Pete.

Thanks Pete,

I suggested that they use my pictures  and they've agreed, saves their guy trecking all the way to Wales :)

Another "favourite layout" of mine - brilliant photo of brilliant modelling Phil.  :thumbs

As Pete said, so much detail packed in there and to me, it's the detail that makes a layout special.

WARNING .  .  .  bus on bridge alert !!!

Yep, one of my favourite layouts too  :)

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 :)

Hello Phil.  Lovely picture. How do you manage to get the whole picture in focus? Any tips? And what camera/lens are you using.
Thanks.

Double warning….there’s no driver in that bus either !!!
Thanks all for the kind comments  :)

Terry, I use a Canon 6D but it’s not the camera, I use Helicon Focus for focus stacking, in other words, I take about five shots and focusing on close to far, then the program converts everything to one picture, I used to do this manually in Photoshop but it takes some time to do. If you’re interested in this, PM me.

BTW, I still have to use an iPad to view this forum as Norton has blocked it on my pc because of suspect advertisements, they tried to email the webmaster but the email was returned?

This might be a problem for me posting pictures, because they’re all on my pc?

Wow!, I can now view this forum on my PC without Norton blocking it, someone must have removed the blocking issue!

Here's some new shots.

Fantastic pics. Hope there are more to come. Todays health and safety people would have a fit if anybody had a setup like this but it really looks the part. I am assuming that the scaffolding is all scatch built or does someone do this sort of stuff. I know Scale model scenery have some but it is a bit more modern i think.

Thanks guys, there's five pages there, so not bad coverage, however there are a couple of things wrong with my edited script.
