Last circuitry tweak to my Raspberry Pi Pico powered ‘mind your head’ sign. My LED backlight panels didn’t suggest a specific resistor, and having tried out a few I’ve settled for round about 60ohms. Next to rewire everything to a headerless Pico inside the case.

This is such a great idea. Could have done with that many times 😆

Maybe combine modelling with bonsai or terrarium ?!

Superb as always. I don’t think I’ve seen scenery like this on any other layout 👏🏻

I think it’s more my inability to work out how to actually find the stuff I’m interested in, as Insta seems to like to curate the feeds. And I can’t figure out the difference between posts, reels and stories 🤣. A lot of great railway modellers on there though.

That’s what you call attention to detail 😁

It shows you what you can do for a low amount of money if you try 👍🏻👏🏻. I must finish my cheap PiZero loco sound project and post that on here soon…

That’s the kind of pass I call brave, hoping the points are set correctly 😆

Not much has changed on the layout over the past year, but I did finish weathering this rake of IOA ballast wagons #ModelTrainShow2025 #BSMRGUK #TMRGUK #IMRGUK (Part 1)

The sound of that horn would definitely make heads turn! I think you’d have a few issues with clearance under bridges though 😆

Yeah I’ve had to split or shorten mine for here!

Great photo. Discovered the same, which is a pity as I much prefer BlueSky now - hopefully they will increase the limit.

Second part of video due to BlueSky max 60s videos (which is a shame, hope they double it soon!)

Just the one minor incident to report tonight while filming for #ModelTrainShow2025 when a car fell on top of a gentleman sitting on the platform. I’m pleased to report he was fine after treatment with PVA glue #BSMRGUK #TMRGUK

Might have to get some myself in future - wiring lights up through couplings was very fiddly!
