My modelling has been a little slow recently. However, I’ve made a lamp for the station platform. It’s a Langley kit, and was easy to build.

After a little bit of weathering I fixed it in place on the platform. I think it looks good and hopefully it doesn’t give away that it was an afterthought!

I think my ‘First’ layout may be finished. There are two reasons:

1. I cannot think of anything more that I want to add to the layout. Yes, there’s some more stock I want to build (a permanent way train, some cattle wagons and a quarry loco), but the layout itself feels complete.
2. I’m thinking about what to do next. I’ve learned a lot from building ‘First’ and I feel it’s time to move on…

Can a layout really be finished? I think in this case it can.
