Busy times at Knell Lane, all platforms are occupied!

Harrier progress

CCT Van

A new delivery of railway materials arrived today including a CCT Van, the layout's first item of Dapol made stock and very nice it is too. Now we have 2 vans we can have a van train! ALso arriving was a kit for a footbridge, some more people, platform seats and some fencing.

Class 25 shunt

Another video, the Class 25 shunts the freight train into Knell Lane station. The "Rat" is a bit jerky still so needs some more running in.

Harrier

Project #068, a Harrier GR1, has progressed through the building stage quickly, now the painting can begin. I'm not sure i have the right paint though, i might need to restock a few.

Another DMU video

Another video of the DMU, this time at speed.
