Very nice Matt.
I really like the way that your station area is developing and establishing. It's beginning to look really well established now. The middle of the loop looks like a very nice place to sit and watch the trains go by now - well done!

Thanks for the encouragement! i'm happy with the way its developing slowly.
As you say, the area within the loop is a wonderful place to sit, sun throught most of the day and a great view of the trains as they work their way around the line. Also provides a nice bit of child free garden
With a solihull group steam up looming (this saturday for anyone interested) I'll be pulling out the removeable sidings tonight to check everything still aligns and possibly look into a little bit of detailing to fit on there.

Slowly?!! That must make progress on my line positively glacial by comparison!
Your line's looking great - enjoy your steam up!

Ditto Andrew. In fact I seem to be going backwards compared to Matt! I've manage to clear a fairly major 12" to the foot track design job off the table today and rolled out the garden plans again. If I can get back home at a reasonable time tomorrow I'll crack on with some more landscaping - little by little railway construction is coming closer, all the more reason to finalise the track layout now!
Matt,
I wish I could make it on Saturday but I'm off for a short week signalling on the Bluebell I'm afraid. At some point in the not too distant future the chance WILL come for me to get across to have a look at your handiwork in the flesh.
All the best,
Andrew
