Thanks for kind comment
Did debate getting an actual photographic backscene made up but then saw this Gaugemaster backscene. Started installing it from the left hand end - thats where the Morganite Crucible factory is just off scene - and followed it round. It was spooky! Looked brilliant - there was even a hill where Bredon Hill should be and a wood where Perry Wood should be. So very happy with it! and many who have seen it in the flesh have made similar comments. So highly recommended.

call me stupid but is this model based on the junction just SE of Worcester?

Hi there yep certainly is! Do you know the location? I spent a lot of time there in the late 60s early 70s hence the layout. We have altered the track slightly - the up loop was only a refuge siding and had no direct connection to the Worcester line - but other than that have tried to keep it as close to the real thing as possible. Hope you like it!
Kind regards

I know the location, but only in photographs although I don't live to far away from there. I think the layout is brilliant the sound just adds another realm to the layout. Don't like to admit it being as I'm a kettle enthusiast but I do like the time period modelled but that's not something I'm going to repeat again!

Well there are a few Castles, Jubilees etc lurking and waiting their time - but the steam sound chips will need to get better before we go for full steam operation I think!

Ah yes the recalcitrant dogfish. Better get the back to back gauge out.... was just about to stop filming, then it re-railed itself!
