My main current interest(s)

I'm interested in trains - both model and prototype.
I model in OO scale (1:76) popularised by Hornby and N scale (1:148).

Some of my completed projects are included below:

Southgrove is my make-believe Portsmouth-based urban community modelled in N scale with structures named after fellow junior and senior schoolmates and teachers.
Some modules feature ex-pupils and staff from either of my schools, others feature a mix.
I've got plenty of work to model suitable representations for the rest of my life, because I can draw ideas from over 100 ex-junior and 300 ex-senior school pupils!
