At Shoeburyness this weekend, I am sad to say that I have found AT LEAST 2 points in need of replacement, which I MUST do before Basildon in July, or Canvey Island in April.
I am planning a layout revamp for a few years in the future, which will see a drastic change in the layout's appearance. Thankfully, this, as just said, isn't happening until I have made it through next year, attending the exhibitions booked then.
I am slowly gathering items for my next layout, Sights Of Sodor, which will be a Thomas based layout, another rare sight at exhibitions these days. Personally, I think that if we want to keep the younger children interested in trains, a Thomas layout is the way to do it!
Don't forget about my website. I gave some cards out at Shoeburyness with this blog address, but feel you might want to check out the actualy website for the layout, which is
http://stepneydownlayout.webs.com
Where this is more information about the layout, booking it and photogrpahs.
I am going to be modifying it soon with some new pictures of how the layout is at the moment, so please forgive me if some of the photos are outdated.
That is all for now, I'll hopefully blog again soon.
