I have just started this website (http://www.stmarymeadmpd.webs.com/) for my OO layout.

Despite having said that I will build my garden line first, the OO layout won't take so much time and money to build as the garden line. Plus I have lots more OO stock to run than garden railway stock!

Once I get some sand paper (!) I'll be painting the baseboards I have, then track planning can begin.

I'll post back here when I have made progress.

I knew you would, Mike Laughing

I've just added a pic of the first completed building for St. Mary Mead, a pic can be found here:

I have also added 'Bittern' to the 'Meet the Fleet' page, but here is the picture again. I think it is the best macro shot I have taken to date:

It is one of my favourites, Mike. Although I have plans to add all the detail bits correct to the engine in its present state. e.g. overhead warning flashes etc.:
