Scenic Break part 2


 Well it's starting to come along, But people keep thinking it's a tunnel, so to stop the confused here is the proof.....(her in doors will hate me for this)
 And it also gives me chance to air some of my vehicles...




 I really must get around to re-naming the signal box...
 I could not resist taking chance to photo these pair of beauts...
This was taken from the top of the water mill...

Road over railway bridge scenic break...

 Scenic break for the entry end of the station. Road over bridge using Slaters 7mm scale stone on ply. The arch was made from individual stones of similar size and odd shape stones were made from Milliput...12" wide in total...
 Terraced house and corner shop scratch built. (The sign says 'Terminus Rd')
 Getting there, Slowly.

Out with the boring straight road and in with a curve.
The Boars Head is where I can see it and a weighbridge in place, plus the coal merchant setting up shop. 
 View from the top of the water tower.
 A couple of buses killing a bit of time...
 My new scratch built warehouse.
