Absolutely brilliant Fatty. A lovely little diorama, nicely put together with a well thought out setting and some very effective detail and weathering. I love the little abandoned van and the weathering on the train is excellent. Thanks for the pictures.

By the way what is the cable and switch for?

As for a name, with a handle like yours it would have to be something along the lines of:

"So where's the Fat Controller when you need him?"

Excellent work there Fatty,

I particularly like the eye level pics too, Looks very realistic. Some very nice touches in there and the working firebox looks excellent.

Regards.......Mark
