Large scale show, Leamington

Today we attended the large scale show just off the Fosse Way near Leamington Spa. 

I purchased a useful book…. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Garden-Railways-Ground-David-Pratt/dp/0955259800

and a flying bench cheap…

I’m not really expecting to run passenger trains, but this makes a useful ‘quarryman’s’ vehicle to go with the slate wagons.

Dad also purchased the zoo car:

to go with his other bugs and his Prince…which I’m sure will make visits to my garden line from time to time.

So, now I have to work out how to build the line this summer with the minimum of cost/time spent doing it….
