New Guards Van and more progress on the trackbed ....

Firstly a guards van has finally arrived for my goods train (this item has been on pre-order since Nov 2012 - waiting for a new production batch run to me made). Well worth the wait, lovely model - must add a guard leaning on the rail at the back if I can find a suitable figure.

 Also today with a lovely sunny (but a bit cool day) continued with laying the trackbed - have now got round to the signal box.

The next phase of the trackbed laying will be up the back stretch and round the top of the garden - I'm leaving the station area for last.
