Hi
The project has logged 12652 hours to date. I have been at it for four and a half years. South Wales is indeed very similar to Devon/Somerset.

Not as bad as it all looks. Our exhibition stands are errected right next to the trailer and the baseboards then added after the lighting. Then each section is rolled into the exhibition hall.

Thank you. The sounds were samples given to me, many by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. Bird sounds change throughout the year and we wanted the right sounds for June. I put the sounds together using Audacity. We also have a second CD which is under the harbour with dock, seagull...
The model travels in its own special trailer and is going to Belgium and Holland shortly for major exhibitions.
It takes about 5 hours to set up including checks for all the automation.
Now that the automation is all working, I had been waiting for son in law to come and film it.
I finally realised that I have a video camera in my Panasonic Lumix.............Duh. It uses MOV files and eventually I found a free programme to convert to WMV called Prism Video Converter.
So...
A kitbash of a 'what might have been' Mallet for the 2ft gauge Lynton and Barntaple Railway. It uses 2 Bachmann class 08 chassis with etched valve gear with kitbashed Backwoods body.
In the foreground is another 'what might have been' a scratch built railcar.
You guys are all most kind.
I post some more recent snaps
