Hi Gregg great to see the Birdwood sub on the move again. Still waiting to build the out building for the new train barn but with a little luck we hope to be under way soon. Looking forward to Lord Stanley’s holiday greeting! In the meantime I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a safe New Year. Cheers from Colorado! Scottie

g'day mate, it's the grumpy old fart from n.h. here, just thought i'd pass along a thought from a guy named boomer diorama, who did a nice bit on doing water. don't remember the date, but it worked quite well for him. keep up the great work, love your show, and say merry christmas to your alter ego. john

Hi John! I've not done water before, so it will be a big learning curve and I will check out Boomer for sure! Thanks for the info. Cheers Gregg.

The layout has really come along nicely Gregg. Your channel has also grown all of these years. The bridge scene will be awesome, just like the rest of the scenes. I will use your layout as inspiration for my future layout in the basement of my new house. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Can’t wait to see the small water scene finished. One issues I have had with water was if there is a hole, it will find it. But it’s fun to work on. The layout looks great, can’t wait to see the plans for the new layout. Cheers from mild Nebraska.

Thats for sure! DOn't know how it will feel , but its 15 yrs of work so far? I will be using all of it again , so that will speed up the new build a bit as far as the legs and some of the table sections go . I will shoot some of the dismantling but thats a way off yet! Thanks for watching. Gregg 🙂

Thats true Richard, but the price of a repair would be more than what I paid for the new one? It's amazing how more efficient the new model is ...I'm getting more KW than I ever did with the original on the same panels! Though the old one was very good too. CHeers Gregg.

I have been using florists foam as the basis for my rock molds with paper soaked in plaster draped over and then rock molds over the top. The florists foam to me is better than styrofoam even cardboard. Just my experience for what it is worth..

Hi Dave , that would of been great but I'm back in Brisbane now , but please have a good look around Stirling and the Station! You can check out my block , opposite the station and try out my new driveway. and park where the new layout shed will be going....LOL. Visit the main street of stirling and have a coffee or better still , get a takeaway and enjoy it sitting at the station! Most trains have gone through by about 10 am and then mid afternoon through till late. Enjoy your trip and catch you when I move down to Stirling. Cheers Gregg.

Where the bridge is set down and in the front of other tracks (looks like 2) could you place them on a bridge as well? It looks like you're Proto-Freelancing so you could do that.

I could do that Colin, but I prefer to seperate tracks in scenes where I can and I will plan for it in the new layout. Gregg😉
