Great

Looking start to this one. I love the road markings.

Love the Tube

Great start to the diorama, but can I ask why you chose Morden? There are lots of quirky and more photogenic stations to pick from. 

But it is rare to see a TfL (Transport for London) model so great work.

Why Morden

can I ask why you chose Morden?

That's a great question. The station itself is pretty plane and the surrounding office buildings are downright ugly.

This is one of the "over ground" Underground stations where you can see the track and an interesting track arrangement coming into the station. Its an end-of-line station, a straightforward model and hopefully the subject of an upcoming exhibition layout this year. Plus there is "BR" trackage nearby, as well as a London Transport shed out the back which could make for some interesting ops.

The kit is available from Kingsway Models in OO scale and a good chance to get my feet wet.

Following

I've already added it to my Feedly list so will be watching your updates.

Although I've used the Tube for over 30 years, I've never ventured out to Morden, just not on my commute. But it does sound to have a good mix for modeling and no tricky underground to worry about. But the majority of the underground is really over ground or runs in cuttings between buildings which is not evident from the popular and busy central London routes.

Good luck and looking forward to your posts.

Enthusiastic anticipation

I visited London in 2003 and traveled the tubes a few times while there. Was in the Paddington area and traveled to HammerSmith and to King's College. I much admired the Underground while there and, now that I watch a number of BBC or affiliate productions, can identify the tube functions better.
