Saddened to hear that Martin Carthy has announced he is retiring from touring due to a Alzheimer’s diagnosis. I spoke to him once in the men’s toilet at Wolverhampton MAC in I think 2017 when in true fan fashion I mumbled a hello Mr McCartney.

Twelve months apart on my first ever 00 gauge #modelrailway #modelrairoad, this layout is dedicated to my grandfather who drove the actual loco that’s modelled D213 Andania a class 40 diesel on his final shift before retiring from BR in the 60’s

A layout is never finished but D213 is getting close enough to pause and share...also after much consideration I decided to name the station Andania, the same as the loco.

I’ve come a long way in twelve months on my journey in #Linoprinting from my first attempt on the right to having my prints used in a commercial calendar.

I’m new to #linoprinting so I’m delighted that the Worth Valley railway commissioned me to produce prints of their diesel loco fleet which are now available as gift cards and a calendar

Six of the 12 Lino prints I made for the @worthvalley.bsky.social 2026 diesel calendar. This was an enjoyable but challenging project as I’m relatively new to printmaking.

A question for all you OO gauge model rail enthusiasts..having built my DC layout using Peco electrofrog points will I now have to modify them in any way to run DCC ?..it will be extremely difficult and potentially damaging to do so as they are all fixed down and ballasted.
