Title: Pendraken ACW's in an N Gauge exhibition
Post by: Leon on 07 February 2014, 11:44:47 AM
I've just spoken to a chap who's using our figures in his N Guage exhibition, being displayed at some of the railway shows around the country, so thought I'd pop up some pics!

More info on his site here: http://www.copperhead.ukpc.net/ (http://www.copperhead.ukpc.net/)

Looks like Grierson's been that way in the past. Great layout and the figures really complement it.

A great layout badly let down by a tacky plastic train.  :(

So, do the trains go round while the figures stay still?

...it does look odd really - if the train was weathered a bit, I think it'd look stunning  :)

(have a look at the weathered box car for reference)

It's very odd - the wrecks in the background look excellent, one at the front straight out of the box in poundland....

Never mind. Some soothing lotion and a good night's sleep and you'll find they just drop off.

I hear the Dutch are setting to send teams to reclaim Somerset from the floods, and then add it as part of the Netherlands.

Yep - some great questioning here for the PM, about 20 seconds in: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-26138762

Here's the EA flood map for Bridgwater...

Last time I was in North Petherton was in 1976 and the worry was drought. Changed days!

I just hope there's enough of a gap for some of it to drain away before the next lot of rain arrives.

Best wishes to any of you and yours caught up in all this.
