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 😆
Discovered I couldn’t see well enough to solder any more … been to buy some reading glasses!
Looks good in the lighting
We now 3 minute videos on here - just a couple of weeks too late 🤪
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 is such a spectacular layout. The castle is just incredible 🏰 👏🏻
That’s the kind of pass I call brave, hoping the points are set correctly 😆
My estimated viewing figures for #ModelTrainShow2025 :

I love the juxtaposition 😆👍🏻

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 😆
