Superb, Geoff, as always!
Engineering works would not have prevented trains running. There were diversionary routes and these were regularly used. Trains also ran over Christmas......They are indeed Keith, the trouble is I have to clean up after them, still the new footbridge girder is in place now and trains are running again ready for Monday morning. No engineering works running over and cancellations in these parts

You don't have to do any actual modelling for now, just indulge in some very agreeable retail therapy and keep the stuff until you have the time and/or space and/or permission to build the layout!
