Right Andrew, that is the only known photo.

Well, day one of the show is over.

When I first arrived I was informed that the first clinic was to be on scenery and the fellow doing it was not coming.
I was asked if I could give a clinic on scenery. So I quickly put something together called "Scenery On A Budget". Apparently I did good. ;D

Then I sat down and started to build. Here is the results.
Picture one: just before lunch.

Now to see how far I can get tomorrow.
WoW....You got all that done in a few hours..?? That's about a week's worth of work for me.... Misngth

Let's see what today brings....
Gus, there are two factors in my favour here.

1. I stained the kit earlier in the week, so I was ready to build.

2. It is an RSLaser KIt, designed by an architect, it goes together like a dream.

Here is today's results, all the doors, windows and roof supports are on. Seems I spent more time talking today Icon_lol

Thanks Matthew.
The Bottling Works looks like a great addition to the layout (which is coming along very nicely)!

Thanks Josh.

The bottling works is being kitbashed from two RSLaser Cheltenham Stations.
They are available in N scale and HO scale.
Time for an Update.

I have put the Bottle Works on hold temporarily. I have been busy on the layout itsef.
I have an impromptu open house this weekend. Been working on fixing the "ugly" sections.

The grounds keepers were in yesterday, Mr. Forest Ranger came around today.
Tomorrow the track crew will hopefully install some track end bumpers.

Uncle Henry was able to get the billboard up and ready for the VIPs.
