Re-think on O Gauge Stabling Point

After much discussion with my son it has been decided that the stabling point will become – a fuelling point!

This is not a big change and it does not require any track relaying. We have obtained a Scenecraft  Fuelling Point and a Hampton Hill platelayers hut to add to the layout. Actual placement will be decided later but the modifications required are being planned.

We have also added a 1″ square piece of softwood to the front of the layout to enable a curtain to be hung at exhibitions.

The layout also now has a name —— Ashwell Moor FP

O Gauge wagons for Graham M

These three wagons were all made to a very high standard by Graham and then passed to me for painting and weathering.

Although a quite diverse batch covering over fifty years, they all required separate research on actual liveries and weathering.

For the first time I have taken ‘before and after’ photographs.
