Good grief Michael, you don't hang around. A 12ft bridge build and install, redoing the greenery ballast and all up and running. Fantastic and looks brilliant especially with the long rake train. Well done All the best Peter

Hello again Peter. Yep, soon has I buy anything for the layout I'm straight onto it, that's why most of the railway was built in 4 years. The bridge is 1 inch short of 13ft. All the best. Mick

Mick, can you tell me what year and month your layout was in either Railway Modeller or Hornby Magazine.? I've got both Railway Modeller and Hornby Mags for last Five years.
