    so over the last few days i have been busy, i wanted to get christmas eve finished.

    i have added snow, santa and a sleigh with rudolf.

    i then built a train, i used a 3d printed body in the style of a GWR railcar and added passengers and lights and a DCC chip.

    all in all im really happy with how this turned out and looking forward to taking it to peterborough show.

    Jimmy, I know you're trying to "catch em young", but I am sorry to tell you in a few years time, glad rags, face paint and boys WILL stomp Railways every time!
    But in the mean time, enjoy the Dad time of a shared interest :lol:
    I was thinking after a year or two, when you get bored with it, you could rent it out to us, to show off to our grand kids! :avatar:
