    Threadmarks: A journey begins

    I do try, but sometimes a thread title doesn’t work on the first go. I’ll think on it. It started with a phone call. A chap called and asked if I’d be interested in helping him by building some coaches. Well, as it’s more or less what I do these days, I said I was happy to chat about it...

    4mm Holt (ex-Delph) - A P4 layout under construction

    With my loco construction (currently rebuilt Royal Scot 46109) having run out of steam for the moment, I thought I might post something about my P4 layout. Actually, I'm not sure this should be here as the section is called "Layout Progress) and the layout hasn't made any progress for some years...

    Bodmin General (1955) - P4 layout progress

    I recently threatened to post some details of my under-construction model of Bodmin General on here. The initial evolution of the layout has been the subject of a thread on the Scalefour Forum but I thought I'd widen the audience and try and be more disciplined about updating progress. Having...

    Good morning, and reight good it is to be here. I’m a Yorkshireman, or more correctly nowadays, a Northumbrian, for I’m living in what we now call Northumberland, though I have documentary evidence that the old kingdom of Northumbria included Leeds so I claim the best of all worlds. No...

    Ullypug's Tales from the Tinking Table

    Morning all. I thought I'd put details of what I'm working on presently. Don't quite know when the modelling bench got christened the 'tinking table' but it was some time ago. Anyhow, this is what it looks like in its tidier moments. Last off the production line was this Bachmann 2MT tank...
