Hi Liam - The corner looks very good and you have made an excellent job of it. I use plastic storage drawers and with rubber type matting stopping movement they work well and as you show easy to get stock in and out. Finally two very nice 25s with great sounds. Looking forward to the next update. Cheers Kev
Hi Liam, what a great idea to use the wine box for a control panel - funny how "waste" items can assume a new (userful) lease of life with a little imagination. Thank you for posting and stay well.
Indeed - I spent ages measuring and looking at both railway suppliers and generic boxes on eBay and this was the best match. That said, I was still surprised at how big it was when it arrived 😂 take care yourself cheers.
Hi Liam, Nice update, the factory scene looks excellent lighted. Class 25 sound was great and both loco’s looked good. Looking forward to your next episode, cheers for now, John
Thanks John, only just started to get into sound, but I’m really enjoying the diesel sounds. Got a class 20 to do next, but it’s a bit of a dodgy runner, which I think is the decoder. Thanks Liam
Loved this update Liam. The “Depot Corner” scene looks wonderful. The way that the buildings blend and sit with each other really makes it look like it is a real place. Can’t wait to see the finished result. All the best from Chandwell! Michael.
Cheers Michael, thanks for the kind comment. I’m often reluctant to make a change but really glad I did here as the previous version just didn’t work as well together.
Think you got a bargain on the Really Useful Box drawers, I've spent a small fortune on their A3 size boxes to store my cuttings, but still great value.
I think for these buildings they were designed in Inkscape possibly based on the Scalescenes windows and then printed black or very dark brown onto inkjet acetate.
Great look into your progress of the depot corner, love the lighted flats with added details inside!
Thanks Vincent, yes the lights really help the atmosphere!
Great idea using the winebox for control panel
Thanks Roy, sadly it was empty when I bought it!
Hi Liam - brilliant update, really enjoying the building sections, keep em coming.
Regards Chris
Thanks Chris, glad to have you on board!

Thanks Kev, glad you enjoyed the update. I’m hoping to get my class 20 sound fitted next.
Enjoyed the video Very much.
Cheers Dave, much appreciated.
Great layout. Like the rolling stock storage solution.
Thanks John, yes I’m pleased how it has worked out.

Enjoyed the video, like the draw system, I may get some for my N Gauge stock so I will have twice the room! Cheers Gary
You could also go double decker for even more storage!

It took a lot of shopping around but yes they a great and everything is neatly stored away. Thanks
Great update - the windows used look awesome. Where did you find/purchase or make them?
