    Should look good, if you are going to use the supplied printed windows, try and get access to a colour laser printer and transparency film, you get a far more solid black than with an ink jet.

    I used the clear film for the windows and it works ok.

    Just remember that the Scalescenes kits allow a lot of freedom in the build. By mixing and matching various kits, you can achieve anything, as Paul has shown with his goods shed build.

    Cheers, Gary.

    Hi Gary,

    I like the corrugated iron roofline sheet roofing on the canopy. Your windows have turned out well too. Weathering is excellent.

    Nicely done,

    Toto

    Another week almost over. Home time tomorrow. Some scenics and a short video is on the cards this weekend.

    I think it's time to try and progress my embankment. It's out with the polystyrene sheet. I'll line the apertures with grease proof paper before dropping the polystyrene in so that when I go to add plaster to the top of the polystyrene, it won't get all over the inside walls.

    The grease proof paper " tanking " can be cut out with a scalpel blade once the plaster has set. Don't know if I've explained it very well but you'll get the drift once I post a photo or two.

    I may also download the scalescene warehouse that I'm intending to use and start playing about with that as well.

    I'll do a wee video of some traffic movement on the layout as well. It's a pretty small layout with short runs but that was the plan. Shunting was the name of the game here so a wagon or two to test out the magnetic uncoupling will be the order of the day.

    Cheers for now,

    Toto

    Hi folks,

    Apologies for not coming through with the video as promised. I did get to the shed and indeed done a video. However, I can't for the life of me get it to load.

    It's not the best of videos but it does let you see my new class 24 with sound on the move. I have the camcorder with me at my hotel so I'll maybe have another attempt.

    Cheers for now

    Toto

    Tom!,
    When you`re working on the uploading........try hanging your tongue over towards the left hand side of your mouth instead of the right.......it may help with concentration.????

    Toto, send your locos down under, I have dcc capabilities and Gormo is very handy with a video camera ! :p Between Gormo and I, we can produce a full blown 90 minute feature showcasing your locos...! Actually, when I think about it, you have enough locos that we could do a sequel..., or two, perhaps three...

    I can see the titles already..., 'Toto's Trains' , 'TT the Sequel : Daring Diesels' , 'TT With a Vengence : Screaming Scottish Steamers', 'TT Drop Off's and Pick Ups : Descending Deltics...' :avatar::avatar:

    Cheers, Gary.

    Come on lads he's in Scotland they've only just found out how to flick through a little note book to make the horse appear to move! You do still call the movies the 'flicks' up there eh Toto.
