At last an update. Over the last few years I have been planning the layout. After many track plans and three baseboard I have started again. The baseboard is much lighter, only 6 x 2`6" (I am still not metric as my thumb`s first joint is 1" and not a convenient cm measure. So far the dock walls are part finished. I have a part completed railcar set, almost running and some of the new L&B trucks, so I am thinking of making this an extension (invented) of the L&B rather than a narrow guage line from the SR terminus at Nude. Photos to follow.

That damned spellchecker has struck again, for Nude please read Bude as there is no naturist beach there, as far as I have seen!

Mike, Bude had a 'natural' beach served by a narrow gauge 'sand' tramway.   I thought you might have extended this inland to replace the Bude canal and carry passengers!!!   All the best, Colin.
