Inspiration


I've been inspired by Andy Evans' work on Growler 1 over in Germany, working in clean white plasticard has a certain appeal - it's akin to the spotless engineering that you see in Formula 1 workshops. Others have also been at work in this stuff, not least Jim Russell with his bo-bo loco.

I also have a fond liking for Bruce Bates' "Birdwater & Raspberry" series .....

Things have been stirring in Talbot Works and whilst it's all kept well hidden in a dark corner under a couple of tatty tarps, news will out soon!

Thanks for the complement- Although the "Clean, white" look isn't so pristine when you see it slose enough to show all the bodges... I look forward to seeing what's happening under those tarps.

Can you tell us anymore about the Birdwater & Rasbery railway ? The picture looks a lot like the illustrations from the greatly missed Salford model railways catalogue years ago.
