A bit of scenery....

Whew! Doesn't life sometimes get in the way of your hobbies! Too often I think!

Since my last entry I have been adding a few bits and pieces to the module. Here are some rough photos to give you an idea.

Note that after two three reversals the level crossing is back and being worked on! There are also a couple of cattle near the level crossing (I think one has fallen over and is asleep! The skinny houses back scene will be replaced by something more in scale.

I also have an idea for a war memorial of some kind. I got a couple of 1/144 tanks to use (you can see one on one of the photos). I've also decided to go ahead with my Petrolimex petrol station. It will be on the corner next to the light coloured two story building. I'll have to make a 'site specific' concrete pad and then use the parts from the Tomytec kit.

I recently attended a model railway exhibition here in Sydney, Australia and got some ideas to add a 'circle' to the layout so that I can run continuous trains without having to build a full layout. And I haven't even started the planned 'corner' yet!

By the way, I haven't finished painting the sky board yet. It will be a lot smoother when finished.

Things don't move very fast do they, but they do move.

Have a look at this gentleman, at SaiGon station in August. I think he has the right idea!

Hmm. Maybe to much of that.
