Looks like that would be a very universal structure, and could be used for a lot of things.
What do you suppose is the hold up?

He's re-designing the (non-existant) staircase so it has a landing halfway down, I've no room at the moment for this but I'm into the tentative stages of planning my next layout for 2025/6 and this will be incorporated into it.

I tried using Railmatch varnish, I either thinned it too much or too little I'm not sure, it was only a small bottle so it's now in the bin and I went back to my usual VMS matt varnish which doesn't need thinnning.

Wow! That’s a long to be waiting for something to ship!On the good news side, the decals I ordered from Canada are finally on their way,but heard nothing from Gold Rush Bay about the interiors for my passenger cars which I ordered in January.

Think he's more interested in producing his high-end $500-$600 items than my $100 interiors, or he's dead, not sure which.

Thankfully yes, there's another modeller on a different forum who has just finished one as well, so I've someone to ask for advice if I need any, which I'll probably need.
