Todd Gieg has spent 20 years building a 1/13 scale model of the Boston, Revere Beach and Lynn Railroad. When complete, the layout will stretch 56 feet.

Looking at the WW1 Hunslet at the Leighton Buzzard Light Railway today. The 1:32 kit is coming - but the valve gear will be a challenge.
Having a session on looking after your locos. Andy doing a great job with lots of questions being asked.
Thank you for such wonderful photos over the years, especially the buildings. Filled with inspiration for modellers like me, and a wonderful colour reference for fading beauty. Hope you pick up some more followers from the modelling family..
117 rivets down with 55 to go....and I only have 55 left on the sprues/no spares - the definition of true jeopardy! #WW1 #WDLRHClass
Tink's got good taste as Percy loves his cow too. We have to stop him chewing the ears off as that is the mark of an extra special favourite (for some wierd Percyish reason)
At my dad's funeral his cricket buddies asked if I was 'still a missionary down south' - in other words, spreading the good news of Yorkshire to the poor southerners.
Still working at it.
Sounds like a phrase a Yorkshire vet would use.
Although I have lived south of Watford for years I'm still a born and bred Tyke at heart.
Is it like a household of women - do all three girls come into season at the same time? Just asking...I only ever have boys, they just do interesting things with cushions and toys during puberty.
About 6 weeks ago hubby was taking the cover off the caravan towbar and found a full nest - not sure who was more surprised!. All gone a weeks later. Apparently only 2 weeks between building nest and fledging for Robins. V quick but high mortality. Hope your fella makes it.
Great idea - my husis says she bought this for me, but comes to sit in it when she gets home from being surrounded by 30 10 year olds
We have gained adult members through the scheme as they have become interested attending the sessions and being introduced to modelling. It's not just the youngsters who graduate to membership.
Agreed - the youngsters are hungry for it. Many clubs are worried about Safeguarding, but if the adults stay with the youngsters and common sense safety procedures are thought through for the sessions and observed it can be done - and secures the hobby for future generations.
They are all in their happy place again. Celebrating 10 years of the Young Model Railway Club @ModelRailClub. The parents get in on the act too! Helped over 300 youngsters - boys & girls - in the hobby over the years. Who said the hobby was 'male, pale & stale'?!
