The other Midland line

Also tonight, some pics of Glenn Anthony's Midland line layout that he built after spending a weekend playing trains with us in Chrishchurch in 1995. Glen used converted N scale stuff, but his scenery and back scenes were something else.

A converted Minitrix loco hauls a train of converted Kato wagons across Staircase viaduct.

A pair of converted Ibertren locos roll across the big Kowai viaduct. The story is that Glen had the fantastic back scene painted by a female co-worker and paid her in tim-tams (a yummy chocolate biscuit in this country for the rest of the world)
