About Me

My photo
When i left school back then i was lucky enough to enroll on an engineering apprenticeship. I think this lead me in good stead. I was always one of those children that pulled things apart but actually put them back together again. My first engine given to me at the age of Seven, a Triang Princess Elizabeth. The rest as they say is History. Later in life i got back in to Model Railways and started building Pine Road. This could lead anywhere so i hope you enjoy my Blog.

Adams Radial

You all know i have a passion for Adams Radials well before any announcement from Oxford rail or Hornby.
After building the two that were used on the Lyme Regis Branch from PDK kits.
The Oxford rail Southern Railway livery model hit the shops in the week i felt no need to buy one as i already had them...yes, well, after looking at her i couldn't resist.
She is beautiful and compares exactly to the one i built so must have done something right for a change

 As Oxford Rail decided to model 3520 this was the main reason for buying one as the one i built was the first loco kit i ever built. Don't get me wrong i am chuffed to bits with her, she runs like a dream and i learn't a lot.
