Track laying to the dulcet tones of The Songbook Collective feat @andylewis.bsky.social

Taking a break from building D213’s layout to start on my next @worthvalley.bsky.social diesel Lino print,good to be carving again #Linoprinting #Printmaking

Under Trump and Vance, the US is no longer an ally of Europe, it is an enemy of Europe. Goodnight, sleep well

Progress on D213’s layout with the shelf base boards in place and track, points, underlay and a new Dremel delivered just waiting for track joiners and pins then it’ll be time to lay #modelrailway

Decided to change the signal box for D213’s layout to this iconic box on the Manchester to Leeds line at Vitriol Works It’s one we pass when we travel to MCR #modeltrains

Design work started on the signal box for D213’s layout based on this era correct box..not looking forward to making that staircase 🤔

Lovely Sunday afternoon out on the @worthvalley.bsky.social using our membership free rover tickets to travel from Oxenhope to Keighley for lunch in the Old Parcels depot at Keighley station..Black 5 out and Metro railcar back. #heritagerail #Yorkshire

Milestone day in D213’s layout build with full scale track templates laid to check clearances #modeltrains #Class40diesels

Shake down ride over Blackstone Edge to run in new tyres on the Bianchi, ridden this route so many times but never taken a close look at this

Enjoying going analog to design my modernist 1960’s station for D213’s layout #modelrailway #modernist

My son bought me this fab 00 gauge model of the loco my Grandfather drove on his last shift for BR in the 60’s,it needs a layout to run on so more than 60 years on from my last train set here goes,I plan to scratch build to the era he retired so modernist station building and signal box #modeltrains

Those revelling at the sight of Spacex getting it wrong are misguided, I say, the sooner they get it right the sooner Rocket Boy can get on board on f*ck right off to Mars
