The Main Line Meets the Narrow Gauge, in the Roof !

I have been building rock walls !  Bloody hard work !!!

And doing a bit of plaster bandaging on the cliffs !
I wrapped some aluminum around this platform, before I laid the bricks !  You didn't know I was a brick layer ?  You know what they say " Jack of all Trades, Master of none !!! "
Two of my On30 Locos infront of the engine shed.  Below, see what can happen if You use the wrong glue on poly styrene.
I put in another transformer to control the O gauge sidings & it tilts out from under the layout. Notice I am trying to keep the wiring neat & tidy ! (See Below)

I hit the bridge with a grey spray can. It just needs a hand rail on the top, plus a bit of road base & it will be finished. It hasn't come up too badly.




My road bridge (Below) has developed another tunnel, for a road to go through.

                                               My road bridge has developed another tunnel, for a second track.

                                            Things have started to grow !
                                            Am I building a garden railway ?

 

    Thanks Peter for the O Gauge rolling stock, it has come up rather well, with new fine scale wheels and some weathering. See Below.....



    I even made a stake car !


I got the wheels from Hattons UK, modified the bogies a bit & they fitted perfectly.
I got that carried away with my success, I put brass bushes on this flat car. It now runs a lot better. See Above & Below.


The two pictures below are a train disappearing into a tunnel, on the main line. I know my wiring leaves a little to be desired, but I'm working on it !
