It's time...

... to do something. Don't you think?
It's not that I haven't been busy railway modelling. I took my H0 scale layout to a local show and was very well received. I've been dabbling in T scale still. On top of that I bought myself a new camera.
While I was working on some T scale stuff I became aware of the UK outline kits and bits that are being produced in T scale including a Deltic, of course that got me thinking about my UK outline project - this one. I've got to get started and kill this inertia that has built up.
Taking the 7 day layout to the show taught me one thing. Saltfleet Haven CANNOT be 4'6 long. It won't fit in the back of our small car. Four foot is the maximum length. No two ways about it. All previous sketches and designs have been based around a 4'6" length that will have to change, hopefully it won't kill the atmosphere of the design though.
