Heljan model at Lynton continued

A rather longer unedited video is presented here. As before I hesitated to show as there was much Id liked to have improved. Please excuse the incorrect platform seats as these were placed merely for effect. Much of the scenic detail is still under construction but at least you do see the improvement to the Heljan first generation model after undertaking the modifications described earlier. It wasn’t easy to hold the camera steady whilst controlling the model. At one point you will see a stall into the loco shed but with a second attempt and all seems well. I am pleased with the improvement to running made and now need to make the model complete with replacing the cow catchers, couplers and train crew.

    1. Thanks Mike. I do need to post a few updates such as the coal staithes and my adventures on modelling the interior of the station. Even though you would think Lockdown would enable more modelling time I seem to have had less time and also, to be honest, a drop off in enthusiasm! All the best Dave.
