Thanks, Richard. I've applied to join. Nothing to show, unfortunately, except the odd video of my MetroVic starting off - with flickering lights curtesy of the Hornby controller no doubt.

I've certainly been enjoying it both yesterday and today. Some excellent work there and very enjoyable. Actually, one really good thing is that I've been able to see things for a 2nd day at no extra charge

Wow, really?? What a shame...

I for one applaud the efforts, we all need these new and innovative ways of sharing our hobby at this time.

Great shame. I wonder if the abusive persons were not modellers but merely, and sadly, internet 'trolls' who, it seems, must make 'fun' of those things they can't or don't want to do themselves....

The UK Modelshops site at http://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/ has an 'eLayout' section which contains views of a number of layouts which may be worth looking at in the absence of anything else!
