Two brake vans weathered for my own layout ‘Woolmer Green’. Does anyone know what the milk churns on the back of the brake van are for?

Pretty surreal moment this month, the August edition of British Railway Modelling (BRM) magazine arrived with my first ever article.

I was contacted by the editor of BRM, firstly through my friend/mentor Tony Wright, nearly year ago and was asked if I could send some photos through of my work. Having liked my modelling work and taking a great interest in my alterations of LNER Fish vans I was asked to write an article on them. After sending through the article I was asked to write a second article to follow in September about how I weather my rolling stock.

I remember saying to myself as a kid, a teenager and in my early 20’s; ”I would love to write an article one day for a magazine” and I’ve done not one but two!

I am so proud of myself, how my model making has come on in leaps and bounds and I feel privileged to be able to show my modelling to the world.

What’s next? A book? 🤔

Some Australian rolling stock on the layout today. I’ve been working on some B*H coal wagons and various other wagons for a customer, slow work with the amount I have to do, but getting there.

Nothing like spending hours building, lettering and painting a model to cover it in paint….the rewards however…. well I’ll let you be the judge!
