Nice reefer Martin. Do you know if Jaap plans on joining the forum? It would be nice to see some of his kit building.

For the rest of the day I've been working on more additions to the roster, flatcar nearby completion and a second reefer.
And trying to add some tiny detail on the reefer. Added tiny pieces of 0.8mm floristwire to suggest the hinges. Grabs are bend out of 0.4mm
Touched up with a little paint I think it'll work.. |
Grtz Martin..

Good job on those hinges Martin. I'll remember that and suggest it to others.

You're welcome Dave, post more pictures when painted.
Last thing done today was modeling a stack of sacks out of air hardening clay, just needed to get the feel for it. Still needs a paintjob..

| I never cease to enjoy the mix of scenery and structures you've got on the layout, Martin. Nice seeing a train go through all of this too. |

Thanks Frederic. You know how I think about trains, they're just a necessary to build some decent scenery  To be honest I didn't run trains except for tests on the new modules since early march. After I came back from the show. Even have the digitrax system disconnected since that time... |

| Nice work on the stack of sacks, Martin. It's also great, as Frederic suggested, to see a train in your great looking scenery. |

Those are pretty good Sacks, I bought some ready made a while back and they are no where near as nice as yours.
