There's a Forum Code section where you can copy and paste. I foresee a smilie revolution!

Update

Having relocated with the family back in the UK at the end of July this year I thought I had better update that sadly the layout is no more due to space downsizing. Tough decisions had to be made (on all my layouts) although I did manage to keep the viaduct and dries area buildings should I get another chance to rebuild the layout some day.

I should just like to say thank you for all the support and enthusiasm that I received on the project since I joined the forum.

Sorry to hear that Pete
Alongside Jerry and John Greenwood, I blame you and your layouts for my dabbling in 2mmFS, I do hope Kyle survived the downsizing....
Have a belated welcome back to the UK from me

Pete, pity about the layouts but there are bound to be more to look forward to. Your 2mm models are amongst the most convincing around, really capturing the atmosphere of the locations with nothing to give away the tiny size. You can add me to the list of people you have lead astray to dabble in 2mmFS. Now we just need to return the favour and shift your 7mm dabblings to Scale7 and see what interesting things eventuate.

Good to see you posting again.

Thanks Steve - very nice of you to say so - Kyle sort of survived without the fiddle yard...so stripped back again to the scenic bit...thought I might be able to bring them along some time to a 2mmFS meet...at present, it remains bubbled wrapped...somewhere

 

[BCN-Pete]

Welcome back to WT too.... we'll look out for your next project... there will be one, I'm sure

Thanks Jordan...there is...it's that 7mm one started on RMWeb...am dusting down the research as we speak

Many thanks also for the kind words Overseer.

Am building the turnouts to 31.5mm...I get confused between all the sub division of gauges

Ah, much better than I feared then Pete, at least the pretty part survives If nothing else it will always look good with stock posed on it - I'll look forward to seeing it in the flesh one day (hopefully I'll actually be in the country when there is a 2mmFS meet on...).

Thanks again Steve - yes, sort of kept those few pieces as photo planks...I suspect if I get to restart CJM one day, I will want to start from scratch though...but at least I have the option.
