It is 4mm as Rob says.. (and when someone sized it up… guess who didn’t leave a big enough footprint on his layout as he forgot the stairs!! ) oh well, I’ve told him to get the p-way gangs in whilst he is on his holidays.
Andy I'm fascinated by the interior, do you draw the components at 4mm scale or are they drawn to a larger scale and then reduced down? Mossy
In this instance, much was 7mm and then reduced by a ratio of 0.565 to come out as close to a 4mm dimensional size as I could. The building was drawn in 4mm… well.. after the second layer of bricks it was. I put the wrong size brick in, which isn’t as obvious on a computer monitor, so did the first layer at 7mm. I then started again when I’d given Simon the footprint and he did his nut! Thankfully he questioned my slightly generous floor plan size and I realised my error! Anyway, all done now.. except neither of us had accounted for the stairs and porch on the side, so I’m wondering where Simon is going to go with fitting this as he’s already got the pWay down and ballasted.

Given the detail you have fitted into the interior I was expecting you to say full size and reduced down! I bet a 4mm brickie would have had fun building the box with 7mm bricks. It sounds like Simon is going to have the same brain bending session I'm having with the cattle wagon. Mossy
After Simons model made it in to the local “Knotty” magazine for the North Staffordshire Railway he sent me some painted shots. He has since forwarded photos of the model now painted and finally in situe on his layout of the same name. not a bad job! And with a service train or two.. more can be found on Facebook at “Down the junction” group. andy
