The K&NWLR finally finds time to post some more videos in the forum, including some of the new buildings at the harbour and an attempt to recreate a little bit of Portmeirion in North Wales.

Great space, very nicely done.......when you see those discussions where people ask how much it costs to get started on being a model railroader, don't ever tell newcomers what you've spent on that beauty of yours so far, they'll run screaming for their lives!

That is a really cool line! It really captures the feel of narrow gauge lines on the British Isles!

It´s not the newcomers I´m worried about, it´s the current Mrs K&NWLR ...:-)
And it´s tree planting time (indoors) on the K&NWLR, while the snow begins to settle outside ...

First large scale vegetation now in place. Check it out!
Getting ready to post more video - if only I can get the connection to work! Patience ...
New video of a Regner "Vincent" making its way through Kent, passing the newly planted trees before crossing the bridge to North Wales and following the harbour branch line past the new warehouses, with a view of the village of Portmeirion in the background above the upper loop with new trees too.

I enjoy your little videos and slide shows!
The trees look great! I especially like the "Weeping" willow in the background at the corner by the stream and the big shaggy barked shade tree!
That puppy likes to play with trains too! he gives a whimsical touch!

A new Isle of Man 3ft gauge "Peveril" finds its way around the top loop of the K&NWLR, amongst the many trees planted on the Kent side of the layout.
I have gotten to like the looks of the little Peveril! A nice looking little engine to my way of thinking ... I guess it is the big drive wheels and clean lines.
The trees a re coming along well too!
