        That reminds me so much of the paintings that used to adorn the old Triang and later Triang-Hornby catalogues... Lose the fence and there'd be nothing to indicate that this wasn't the late 50's or early sixties.

        Excellent.

          Thanks Nigel

          I agree that fence really is nasty Its predecessor was a lovely old wooden post and wire job probably dating from when Brunel was a lad it was that rotten and rusty. Then, when we returned from a few days away, we found it had been replaced by this escapee from an industrial estate. I kicked up a fuss and even received a site meeting from the area trackside manager who apologised but said that as it was up nothing could be done. Harrumph!

          If I exclude it I chop the end of the train off so I include it to have the end of the train disappearing around the curve which is far more pleasing. Well, if it weren't for that fence!

          Cheers,
          John
