Superb photos Rob, really atmospheric.

I have however taken the liberty of subtly adding a few missing items which obviously complete the scene.

The photo was captured just as Shaun was contemplating climbing the tree back into his nest.

Brilliant.

Exactly what was needed. I did wonder what was missing and now I know.

We do have sun in Wales you know and not of the liquid variety........look...

Fantastic, you kept all the colouring in between the lines.

Quite but I let myself down by eating the crayons............

Not sure that counts towards your five day... Unless you ate the green.

A few more monochrome images...

Very nice, great texture on the surfacing. Possibly room for a carelessly wandering sheep in the second shot?

How about something for the Captain?

Thanks.......In colour?

Your wish is my carefully crafted command...

There's only one sheep worth having and that's from Yorkshire.

Tonight we see more typical motive power.

Research indicates that Highbridge managed to retain a couple of Johnson 's lovely little 1F tanks for operation on Bleat Wharf.

This one has clearly had a good scrub......perhaps next time we see the little chap it may well be a bit grubber.

Not too much though. Some loco sheds managed to keep at a least one loco relatively clean with a sheen.

Does it run as well as it looks.

I remember trying to make one of these from a Triang Jinty in my younger years. Also had a go at a half cab. Still have the collection of bits somewhere.

It does YD. A pleasure to shuffle about the place, as is the half - cab variant set to appear.

As for weathering, it will be subject to the usual attention.

Here's one of the Jintys.

Rob, what is the make and model of that lovely car please?

 

[NHY 581]

Evening Chris.

It's a Standard Flying 12 from Oxford Diecast.
