    As the wagon works is almost completed I'm almost (notice the use of almost) ready to start on the second part of the build 'Taylors End Station' this will replace the part built Brewery plank. The logic behind this being that I have the following a, 0-4-2T loco and autocoach b, Dapol Railbus kit/hornby chassis (to be built) c, Triang DMU (to be modified eventually) d, 1 x Southern Coach. Therefore it will enable me to run both wagons and passenger trains ... and I think its doable as I already have the baseboard track and buildings and the traverser will fit on to each section individually or as one layout. That's the plan ...? ... well almost! last.jpg View attachment 295
