Your hinge looks close to rail level. Surprized it works. Well done!

3mm spacer under the hinges and as the hinged bit doesn’t go past the vertical it works fine.

I did Howard. Airfix 1:48. Not quite O gauge 1:43 but not far off.

That's a nice little museum Brian - like the Hurricane. I still have a hankering for the 1/24th Airfix Mosquito - but don't have the time to build it - lots on eBay.

That must be a large kit Barry. Trouble is where do you put it once built. That is the first aircraft kit I have built in decades.

Added a level crossing. Made by SR-3D Designs. Just needs a bit of weathering.

Nice scene Brian. Takes me back to the late '40s whilst on way to Primary school I'd walk past the parcels depot at Finchley Central station and occasionally watch the Scarabs maneuvering so easily in a very small yard.
