As my 1/19 scale layout has gradually developed to a semi-finished state I've looked back on a few old images on the blog. I have enjoyed seeing the difference three to four years of hobby work has made. The first 'Then and now' post can be found here.
I have tried to set up almost identical situations on same location to create a 'now and then' comparison.

| In April 2021 track works were making shunting difficult. A lot of planning was needed to keep the supply of gravel running. Still no landscaping, ballast and even the rails are still in shiny nickle silver. |

| Image from October 2025 showing that a range of improvements have taken place and the photo shows an almost entirely landscaped layout - still with lots of tasks remaining, though. |
The Baguley-Drewry locomotive has only reached first stage of rebuilding. In 2021 I removed current collecting gear and taken out the glazing in the cab windows. Hand rails on the top of the bonnet have been removed too. The Baguley will probably become my next loco project once the Fowler is finished.
