There hasnt been much news on the garden railway lately, Thanks to the great falcon incident of 2019 I've been fairly predisposed with talking to the insurance company. That said I came across a pair of large Radius LGB points which has given me a nice long storage siding near the balcony and a new 7 car long passing loop at the top of the line which will complete trackwork for the time being. Next I'll be focusing on buildings and rebuilding the elevated section of line with actual trestle bents instead of the current arrangement which was just so I could get some operation happening. I'm looking forward to the classic Melbourne weather settling in over the next few months it usually proves to be quite productive being forced into the shed.

I'm a bit torn on this. I do quite like the idea of having Duckets the only problem is it looks like a bachmann baggage car with duckets stuck on! The original idea was to convert this into something quite similar to Rurr Valleys EEP 4 but it was decided that I might as well scratch build if i was going to go that far

Both new cars repainted. Jury is still out on repainting my other bachmann pass car but this finishes acquisition of stock. everything else will be scratch built now.

TGR Y class is still slowly inching further forward towards completion. Power bogies have arrived for this and the other "big wheel" diesels so hopefully the painting process is finished soon

Another Shot of the Y in undercoat along with the QR DH, both models are 3d printed although only the DH is my work in cad.
