A good looking screenshot PLP. I've seen some of your other Swanage screenshots over on t'other UK thread and it's all looking very fine indeed.

Nice screenshots Anne. Just a little too much hint of Green,

Thanks Annie.
I am tinkering with a short route around the River Test near Southampton. It will be roughly Brockenhurst and Romsey to Southampton West. The current issue of Railway Modeller has a layout based on Redbridge wharf, which was on the eastern (left) bank of the Test. Their setting was around 1965, while I have chosen to make it 1925, admittedly just a tad late for an LSWR liveried loco. This date means that I can include a bit of the Fawley branch (opened 1925) and just have the two-platform Southampton West station, but it also means that I had to "excavate" the transdem DTM model to remove all the post-1930 reclaimation works which produced the western docks area of Southampton. The Redbridge wharf yard was also very different in 1925 from what it became during/after WWII.
A view down the River Test from above Totton. Redbridge Junction where the LSWR's Andover and Redbridge line joins their Southampton and Dorchester line. A great deal of work to do.
