There are photos of my trip to Canada last year and also model photos of South Shore Model Railroad Club on the site. If any modellers are in the Worthing or Sompting area on a Wednesday evening and want to pay us a visit you'll be welcome. e-mail me or look at details on www.southshore.org.uk

Enjoy


Interesting pics. Nice modelling.

One small nit: that wooden truss bridge on eth Broke Brick Mountain layout would fall down in real life. The top and bottom chords of a wooden truss must compress the vertical and diagonal members between them. This is achieved by using threaded wrought iron rods supported by iron plates (large washers, really), which are tightened up to supply the compression.

Google Wood Howe Truss for more information.
