Called in to see the talented Jen Orpin who is painting in residence at her exhibition in the Saul Hay gallery Manchester.Gave her a model I made of The Pies Bridge which is immortalised in a couple of her paintings..check out her work at jenorpinpaintings.com

A layout is never finished but D213 is getting close enough to pause and share...also after much consideration I decided to name the station Andania, the same as the loco. @wansfordterminal.bsky.social #modelrailway #modelrailroad

Time to add all the signage to D213’s layout what better reference than this gem from @doublearrow64.bsky.social

Happy Christmas to all my bsky followers

I’ve come a long way in twelve months on my journey in #Linoprinting from my first attempt on the right to having my prints used in a commercial calendar. #printmaking

First of my D213 layout station lights installed and on a temporary battery pack the rest will follow once I can sort out the wiring. #modelrailway #modelrailroad

I’m new to #linoprinting so I’m delighted that the Worth Valley railway commissioned me to produce prints of their diesel loco fleet which are now available as gift cards and a calendar #printmaking

Work in progress on my D213 Andania 00 gauge layout station,still loads of details and weathering to do but these are some of my first scratch built buildings and I’m rather pleased with them. #modelrailways #modelmaking

Bit of Photoshop tinkering with a shot I took at Oakworth the Railway Children station on this mornings ride. @worthvalley.bsky.social

@channel4tv.bsky.social Just watched Bake Off extra slice on Channel 4 and disgusted that when food banks are the norm and children are starving in Palestine they thought it would be a laugh to have celebs throw food at each other 😡😡

On my way to Haworth on this afternoon’s ride #Yorkshire #cycling

Work in progress on D213 layout, depot has fencing parking and a sign, new permanent way yard and station staff parking and D213 has gained a restaurant car for those longer excursions #modelrailways #railwaymodelling #00gauge

Fab soul night on the BBC Proms #BBCProms

Six of the 12 Lino prints I made for the @worthvalley.bsky.social 2026 diesel calendar. This was an enjoyable but challenging project as I’m relatively new to printmaking. #art #Linocut #Printmaking

A question for all you OO gauge model rail enthusiasts..having built my DC layout using Peco electrofrog points will I now have to modify them in any way to run DCC ?..it will be extremely difficult and potentially damaging to do so as they are all fixed down and ballasted.

Took this on the Rochdale Canal in our town Hebden Bridge last night #iPhonephtography #iPhone12

Mate visiting for weekend brought this sweetie

@andylewis.bsky.social Andy, I know you’re into analog stuff so thought you might find this guy fixing a Revox worth a watch with a cuppa youtu.be/NeRfJrpvB74?...

During the works to refurbish @Lumb_Bank I took iPhone snapshots at each monthly site meeting recording the progress of the works through the incidental and seemingly mundane moments.The photos were displayed during the opening night event and are up throughout summer t.co/Ye9lwz9xJN

Happy to repost this as I lounge against one of Gail’s lovely cushions 🙂

So farewell then TEAC your Portasudio promised so much but unfortunately in my hands delivered so little

Happy Yorkshire day. One of my favourite cycling rides up over Widdop Reservoir

@wansfordterminal.bsky.social Thought you might like to see how the layout you so kindly assisted me with by sorting out the electrics deign is progressing

Great day out with Rory at the @worthvalley.bsky.social diesel gala great visiting locos and he even bought one of the calendars featuring my diesel Lino prints

Spotted in the wild.. the @worthvalley.bsky.social 2026 calendar featuring my Lino prints of their diesel loco fleet available in the station shops now and online.

It’s day 3 of the Keighley and Worth Valley railway diesel gala. Here are a selection of my Lino prints of their loco fleet that feature in the 2026 calendar which is on sale during the event. I’m off to enjoy the sight,sound,and smells tomorrow @worthvalley.bsky.social #printmaking

Out in all weathers keeping the Nation powered the National Grid 400kv supergrid is 60 years old today.Here’s 4ZP doing just that on Blackstone Edge Lancashire

My feed has gone from being #printmaking dominated to being ( mainly American) politics dominated..Its not what I came here for. #printmaker #printmaking #modelrailways #nopoliticshere

@hollybrodie.bsky.social Your neck of the woods ?

You could do a lot worse than follow Toms story,it’s a fascinating insight into how he positively manages the pretty poor health cards he’s been dealt.

Chuffed to be able to able to share this at last,my collaboration with Tom at the @worthvalley.bsky.social a calendar of my Lino prints of their diesel fleet in time for the upcoming diesel gala #Linoprinting #printmaker #railways #heritagerail

Hebden Bridge looking splendid in the early evening sun on our walk along the Rochdale Canal

My first attempt at a scratch built station, bit rough around the edges and the platform is still only a foam board mock up but I’m happy with it so far.. looking forward to getting into the ground cover/ballasting and scenics. #modelrailway #modeltrains

My online shop has had the most dismal week since records began. Have a look, share this post and tell all your friends. www.gailmyerscough.co.uk Thank you.

There was nothing that Emily and Charlotte liked better than to watch the monster trucks.

Now that D213’s layout is electrically tested and running time to get back into scratch building the station with inspiration from the excellent book by David Lawrence #modelrailway #modernism #rail200

Huge moment in the life of D213’s layout first rough run to test the block wiring and astonishingly it all works, some clearance issues with some of the points links but plenty to be happy about. Huge shoutout to @wansfordterminal.bsky.social without his kind help I’d never have got this far 😀

Hello! It doesn’t cost anything to repost but it helps me spread the word about my small business. My online shop is full of bold & colourful prints, homewares and cards. I’m also available for freelance design work and art licensing. gailmyerscough.co.uk

I am inordinately excited by the arrival of this packet from DCC Concepts…D213 wiring about to commence #modeltrains

Hebden Bridge in the pink

Made a start on wiring up D213's layout a task I'd been dreading until that is @wansfordterminal.bsky.social stepped up and sent me the diagram that he so kindly produced to set a novice on the right track, and before the eagle eyed shout out, the gaps will be filled with individual sleepers.

#printpromptmonday Favourite Lino print of mine is this of the diesel loco that my Grandfather drove on his last ever shift for British Rail in the 60’s we recently found the b+w picture of him leaning out of the cab at the end of that final shift, The loco is D213 Andania

Great night with the Bootleg Beatles at the @victheatre.bsky.social a fantastic romp through the music from the fab fours films

Being a one woman creative business isn’t easy at the moment. Today has been one of those days where I haven’t sold anything in my online shop. Have a look at my shop and please repost to spread the word. Thanks. gailmyerscough.co.uk

Anybody in the #modeltrain community able to help out a newbie sort out the wiring for a layout. I'm totally confused by how to power the layout which has a number of Peco electrofrog points and despite watching YouTube vids and reading the PECO guide I'm no nearer working out where insulated joints
