Great stuff. I really like the clapboard siding, and also the rusted steam loco.

Is the repair shop from days of yore or fairly recent? -- Russ

Is the jib on the Ruston scratch built or a bought one from Accurate Armour ?

Russ - The workshop was completed last year
Nick - the Ruston jib is scratch built from Evergreen styrene strip /angle and channel - each side was laid out on graph paper to keep things straight and even Les said it was quite easy rely !!

The crane like it very much, but the bike is not bad either.

I'm a little confused ???
both models are great :o
but did the crane operator ride his bike to work ???
And if so, that's a barge, is it high tide ???
I'm old and easily confused, so if someone could clear this up for me ::)
sorry, my wife stopped responding to my commentary, so I'll ride this horse until she bucks me
