In this project I shall tool up my rendition of Sonoita Station for use on my Future Albuquerque, Tucson and Southwestern Layout.

It is amazing the effect sunlight has.

Christmas is a time for fun . . . . and trains! Video from the past.

However you celebrate this holiday season, I just wanted to wish you all the best and also for a very Happy New Year!

Kindest regards,

Adding the second layer of soil.  This time I'm using two additional soil types as well as the original base.  

All the soil comes from Arizona Rock & Mineral Co.  I started with their "Low Desert Soil" then changed to "High Desert Silty Earth" where I wanted a reddish tinge to the soil, and used "High Desert Sand & Gravel" where I wanted a paler soil colour.

Frame construction. A lot of little pieces but straightforward really. The nbw's are at my limit of dexterity and eyesight. 

I called this Hopper con pana!

Today I could finish the third part of A day at the Garve and Ullapool Railway.

This is a continuation of my previous post called "Them's the brakes, Laying down the law on the BNML".

Along the way, I decided that rather than handing crews a clipboard full of paper when they arrive, I would digitize the procedural paperwork and crews could access it on their smartphones.

Last night the area at Inverlael was hit by a small snow storm. And so today
the crew of the Ivatt had to shunt the snow covered Inverlael distillery.

I wish everyone of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Today I could finish the filming for my A day at the Garve and Ullapool Railway Series.
