A new beginning.

After having my previous blog-Dorset 3mm hacked and subsequently deleted- I have decided to start anew. This time though, the posts will not be so frequent and will cover Railway modelling and any other subject I feel is relevant.
The header shows my 3mm layout, Teignford, at the Warley National Exhibition at the NEC in November 2015. My other 3mm layout, Hennock, was shown there in 2013.
No pictures this time but once I get the hang of Windows 10 then hopefully images will be included.
At present I am working on a 4mm layout-as yet un-named which is 8ft long including fiddleyard. Based on Martin Brent's Arcadia, I want a small easily useable layout to test some, new to me, ideas.
My preference for 3mm scale is BR(Western Region) and for 4mm BR(Southern Region).
Several exhibition bookings have been made- shameless plugs for these will be posted- speaking of which- my mate Nigel is showing his 3mm scale layout St Levan at the Victory MRC exhibition at

Admiral Lord Nelson School, Dundas Lane, Portsmouth, Hampshire PO3 5XT

next Saturday 14th May 2016.

So if you are lucky enough to read this and can visit next Saturday we will be pleased to chat- and occasionally operate the layout!
