My other project... by peadar

My other project...

A new structure to fill out the Goods Yard area of "my other project".

(This has yet to be weathered and blended in - by the time it appears on the railway model it will look a bit more lived-in than this and will have some other detail such as model customers and staff! Size - this is OO Gauge - 4mm to the foot - and the footprint of this model is around 130mm x 70mm).

(In case my model making is so terrible that you can't actually tell what this is, it is a Timber Yard, of a type that would have been found in many suburban railway station Goods Yards over the first half of the 20th century. The rise of the out-of-town DIY superstore put most of them out of business, although some still survive).
It's looking good.

Ah, brilliant! Ours is under wraps currently - A Levels consuming the time and energy. Hopefully it will revive later in the Summer.

Great model! My husband is building his old railway track in the attic.

Looks fabulous, is it a kit or do you make it from scratch?

This is great ; love the detail on it and the nature of this model, never seen it before ...
I used to be so jealous when my father and brother did this together, I didn’t care so much about the trains ... but the model building involved 😍

@onewing Babs, this is a Wills kit. A bit fiddly but well within my limited capabilities!
