More excellent modelling Mike.
As an aside it would seem that the Meerkat's daughter has inherited her dad's liking for speed. She must have driven quickly up the M6, I'm sure I saw her new car in the fourth of today's pictures.

......with a Carnforth clock, nice one mate.

Exactly what I was thinking Kim ........... another vote for the subway here Mike.

Really love that shot of the 2 railcars in the station. :love::love:

Wonderful pictures Mike.
I thought I was a bit enthusiastic about hoppers, but those tankers are something else!

It just gets better and better.
A subway would be ideal, with the cross tunnel coming through one of the arches at street level allowing access to the village.

cheers guys.. today was a mile stone day..got to install the station lamps i bought 2 years ago.. nothing like a bit off forward thinking..stuff just happens
marked out the posistion off the subways,and toliet block, and the relevent positions off
the lamps, a suitable drill was selected, and holes drilled, id pre wired each lamp with the correct lenght off wire ,so the install was relatively easy,and pain less..as it would be silly to try and soilder the wires when so close to the upvc/sofit bord/foambord..

 

[steve parberry]

Ooohhh...New Fence... That was quick
