So I recently bought an EM gauge J37. It was a lovely model but as I model in OO I had to swap the axels over from EM to OO. Here is the loco running after swapping the axels over last night. She's missing her tender as I still need to swap the tender wheels over.

I've barely posted anything on here for a while so here's a video of my Jones Goods pulling a rail tour style train at Model Rail Scotland on my clubs layout Glendevon back in February. Thanks to Linny for filming the video.

Didn't get a chance to share a picture of the model of the Jones Goods. She's a lovely model and runs really great, I've had her run on my clubs layout but forgot to film it. Well done to @rapidotrains.co.uk

This is a gorgeous loco and the box is very pretty as well. I'll share some pictures of the loco later today. Well done to everyone at @rapidotrains.co.uk

Hi Everyone, my name's Richard. Been hearing a lot of good things about Blue Sky. You can expect all sorts of gooky stuff from me.
Here a picture of me when I volunteered at Capital Sci-fi Con back in February
