brakes off...

As mentioned on my other (009) blog, I have decided to spend more of my time on garden railway things for a while. Thus there have been further earthworks in the garden, plans created for a method of tracklaying and work restarting on the de winton. Alongside this I have started work on my ip engineering kit for the fr's brake van no.1 aka the "curly roofed van".

Here is the current state of construction - sides, ends and floor all glued together and roof supports glued in (the elastic bands are to hold it all square whilst it dries). Next come the beautiful overlays all made from laser cut plywood. Very impressive.

The bogies are already complete too.
