The early years pre 2021 archived here. My freelance adventures in Colorado in Hon3. Buildings, scenery, details and character are my interests with operation well down my priorities. The layout is a scant 8x12 ft so compromises have been made to squeeze in the scenic and building work I love. Influenced by Allen, Olsen and Furlow along with Earl Smallshaw, John Swanson and latterly Sam Swanson. I make no claim to authenticity and retain my tongue firmly in cheek while modelling.

Built for a modelling friend in the USA
A little across the tracks, backstreet bar for my friend Neal's extensive modern day operations focused railroad in America. It might leave his office shelf one day and find a home on the layout if he ever gets the miles of wiring and electronic gizmos sorted. Built from bits and bobs and objets de scrap, it was great fun to build. I'd intended to give it to him when we met up in London but was unable to get there so had to post it to him. I added a couple of modern down and outs but didn't photograph them before it left my hands.

My compliments to you. Neal is a lucky man, Sir Barry of K. I love your stuff.
ReplyDeleteCheers Graham, I appreciate the compliment and to be fair to Neal he very kindly brought some special blades over that I couldn't get here so we both won.
