Winner of Dioramas & Figurines

James Aitken's Army Tank Loading Diorama

Description: This little scene represents the end loading of tanks onto Warwell wagons. The scene is taken from the station end of my home layout, and all the parts used in the diorama will be used on the layout. The military hardware are Tamiya kits of a Cromwell tank, a Humber armoured car and a jeep. Mem are a mixture of Revell and Tamiya. All the platform components are scratch built with the aid of a laser cutter. The buffer stops are built from NS rail and brass loading plates have been made from sheet, small brass tube and wire soldered together.
