Last weekend, I had an enjoyable time with my friend Simon Roberts, filming Tony’s Little Bytham layout. We had done a similar video last year, but this time we decided to pull out all the stops and try and make it a bit professional….well a little perhaps. I hope you enjoy it.

Blast form the Past
Something from my previous modelling life, an ex LNER Gresley Rebuild, B16/2. This was a commission, which has had a number of tweaks and has been lined out by Tony Wright followed by weathering by yours truly. The original intention was to sell it, however since weathering it, I’ve had second thoughts. 61437 in the …
Van Vactory
An enjoyable time was had at the Thirsk Show last Sunday (even with some slight ribbing regarding my move to all things Western). In between demoing, I finished off some detailed work on this below, a Bachmann (ex Mainline) Mink. Since I returned from the show, and after some enjoyable chats with David Scott regarding Wagons, …

Rebranding…..
As you have probably seen, my blog has gone through a bit of a revamp. Now that I’m doing modelling other than just LNER, 50AWorks didn’t seem right. I now present TFModelling (make a note of it, as the old link doesn’t work anymore), which I think has an obvious connection to me, as well …
Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside (If there is an old railway near by!)
For the first time this year, it actually had a slight (yes and I mean slight) feeling of Spring on my walk from Ravenscar to Staintondale. The day hadn’t started out that way, as my first stop had been Darlington which doesn’t really have the glamour of the coast. I had called in to the …
