That Viaduct is superb, is it laid in individual stones?

Nice work Keith.

Back off my hols too in time for your open day, and no band jobs for two months after 15th July. Looks like I could be available :thumbup::thumbup:
 
Re:Less than 3 weeks to my open day

Sorry, but it's only open to G Scale Society members. It's one of the benefits of belonging to the Society.

Photos of the new extension

The open day has come and gone. About 30 G Scale Society members came to have a look. The weather was very kind and everyone seemed to enjoy the garden and the railway.
Here are a few photos of the completed work.
