Neil - I'm heading round to Andy's now to camp out on the front step. You up for it? ;)

Should I start hiding my bunnies? I don't want them boiled!! :D

Thanks again for all the nice comments guys! The plan is to try and make a full carriage next.

Perfect for the Ainsty underground station I've been painting up! It just gets better.

I was thinking, if you do get these cast up then I'll probably have the ruined carriage sticking out from the ticket office and out into the street.

An extra latch on the hutch wouldn't do any harm. :)

Seriously, this is quality stuff and would love to see it more widely available.

I'll be working on my Ainsty underground station too at some stage, so the carriage would by ideal.

I don't think that kind of building method was used. There's pictures a couple of pages back showing ruined columns, maybe older than Nelsons, but they don't have any pins. It would make it more ackward to cast anyway.

Is the plan for Andy to eventually cast all these?

Any news on a Big Ben release date BTW?

(Neil - your plan is good too. My parents are nearby and can send food parcels).

That would be a better idea. I know where my bruv stays and you don't want to camp out there (scary) lol

This thread is a smorgasbord of modelling goodness - a completed gaming board of ruined London would be truly a sight to behold. Keep up the excellent work.
