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.

Stone buildings experiment

Another day, another experiment.
Portland stone. To the untrained eye it looks white but looking closer, it does seem to have a very pale grey/blue tint to it.
Having a bit of experimentation, i have come up with this.
A closer shot.
Looking at it in the "greyscale" range.
We get this........
this look likes any black and white photo we see in our Railway books.
I think we have sorted out our Portland stone project.
