OK, That works !
It was just that the model boat appeared to be sitting level, not resting on the keel and the turn of the bilge.
By the way, that is a very interesting boat (AC322217). Any idea about the length of her?

"double flanged" :oops:
I need to pay better attention to the pictures! :oops: :oops:

That limits me to, modeling to "Best Guess", but that is still an interesting boat. It is added to my " Hope I live long enough to do this " list.

Hi Frank, somehow did you manage to show none of the photos but the plain html tags pointing to the photos. Could you have a second look into your posting please.
I see the photos!
Absolut impressive. Your little layout and the photos have a very special atmosphere I did not see and feel at any other layout.

During the exhibition, I was very pleased to meet Simon HARRIS. It was a pleasure and an honor for me that he runs his loco and rolling stocks on my layout. He gave me also the excellent idea of the chain shunting, brilliant ! I was also impressed by his battery loco, a system that I ignore all because I'm in DCC.
I had the pleasure to meet also Stephan, Peter and 3 - 4 others 7/8 th scale modellers (I hope the will forgave me to not be able to site them).
I'm already invite for 3 others exhibitions in UK so I hope it will be another occasion to meet others 7/8th scale modellers.
Articles will be written in British railway modelling and in narrow gauge industrial railway modelling review on the Woolacombe Bay so I hope it will contribute a little to the development of this fantastic scale.
Few photos of the layout during the exhibition with loco and rolling stock from Simon Harris
The flat depressed car is a marvellous
