I wish I could say the above was true but apart from a few days its been a mild wet summer!!. Its been seven months since I have updated my blog, a long time but with work and family taking all my "warm weather" time I have had very little hobby time to spare.
Now its all hands on deck to commence some building work on the layout a few changes are being made, the first a pretty major on in the case that the layout will be diesel only relegating my electric stock to the display cabinet. This option was chosen due to the cost and non-availaility of Japanese 1/80 overhead wires, also im sure that after a few exhibition showings there would be some damadge to repair.
The first purchase is a nice repainted type 58 Kato DMU set, 4 cars in total, this brings the passenger DMU fleet up to eight sets, quite enough for now.
I will detail some progress on my baseboard soon with some trackwork detail.
