.....The files for the fencing will be in the 3 D printing section shortly.

That'll be handy. I noticed on my latest video that the fencing behind the platform at Peckforton is looking decidedly sorry for itself.

Looking great Trevor I love to see the buildings and fences it makes it look lived in and not just a railway on a hill, Bravo!

I do love your 3D printed buildings, Trevor.
I wish I had the courage to try ABS printing but my past experience has been unsuccessful.

The enclosed printer is the key. The Bambu Labs P1S is the best I have had.

Looks phenomenal, Trevor.
I just hope the red point sleepers don't show up if/when the ballast chips/wears..

The station building is now finished and installed on the railway:

The goods shed is temporarily in place to mark its footprint in the station area. All three buildings are set in dry mortar and levelled. I am looking for a damp night tonight. and from the other end:

I made the tunnel yesterday, and you can see the its mouth in the distance. The tunnel is made from old bricks, with paving slabs for a roof. I am going to hide the bricks by cladding the entrances with stonework , and extending that to edge the cutting each side of the trackbed.
Finally a low level photo which shows some of the detail:

The adverts were printed onto self adhesive photographic paper, mounted on a printed backing, and varnished. Just need some customers to occupy the seats under the veranda.

I know it's a while back, but do you have any photos or talks on how you designed and built these station buildings? They're quite incredible.
