Easter Sunday 2021 part 1

Posted on 5 April 20215 April 2021

A year on from my first posting of a picture of my shunting game layout some pictures of where it is at now. Some ground cover needs to be applied and the level crossing gate finished painting. IT is a typical ignlenook puzzle. Eight wagons are distributed between the three sidings, in this case they have coloured discs magnetically attached. Eight counters of the same colours are shaken in a bag and five selected at random and put in a row. The loco then shunts wagons to assemble the correct five in order. The results of two games are shown.

The loco is my third build. This one is a PDF models Skylark whose kit arrived before the instructions had been written, having built a PDF Port class previously I got most of it done before I saw any instructions and it seems to be OK. A little more work is needed before she is fully finished. I am pleased with the way she runs.

Phil.

    This has developed into a lovely little scene. The magnetically attached discs are an inspired way of identifying the wagons for the puzzle without permanently compromising the realism.
