It's been a few weeks

Yes it has been a few weeks since my last post,i have been busy at work,at night building kits & scatch building some of the buildings for Gunning station.The other week i picked up 2 ILM klv & 2 nldf kits from fellow bloger Mat from Mainwest blogspot,these wagons were used on the main south for the paper trains.For kits that are a few years old now they go together quite well.The station buildings that i have managed to scatch build so far are the up & down craem sheds & the up waiting.All are made from styrene & then on the down cream clad in corrigated iron.
Been the long weekend made the trip up to Thornleigh to the Epping exhibition,there were a few new layouts that i had not seen before & a few that i had,but its always good to go & get the creative juices flowing again.2 of the layouts that i liked are -O scale Arakoola,at 17M in length its 1 large layout, detail & scenery on this is great & HO scale Galgong & Boorowa,at the front of the layout are photos of the stations and yards,which in my opinion gives a better idea of the area that has been modeled.
Also i lightened the wallet with the purchace of 4 AR Kits bbw kits,just more kits to be built along with the 10 or so other various kits sitting on the bench in various stages of construction.
Anyhow till next time Booly
