Thank you so much for the feedback from last weeks video - I’ve so much to think about…
So, I’m turning my attention this week to the brewery and creating a perimeter wall before I even contemplate a yard surface!!
I’ve purchased some barrels and a loading platform. I think the platform may need extending and I’m no it yet sure on the barrel clusters - maybe when they are painted up they will look ok - let me know what you think!
Hope you enjoy the update, Andy.

Barrels are normally stacked on racks, so that is probably what the moulding is meant to represent.

Another great video Andy. “Wallsend Brewery” completed, good tutorial on the walls as well. Just a thought, in the space between the right hand wall and the coal stage you could put a run down stable block where the dray horses would have been. Keep it up, Paul C.

That has a ring to it! Might ‘pinch’ that name! Nice idea about a stable block as well 👍
It’s looking brilliant.

Thanks. I didn’t think they would take that long to work out!! 👍
That wall does look pretty good. Have you thought of using chain link fence for along the track side in place of that section of wall? It would allow better visuals of the cars on the sidings next to the fence.

Nice idea. I have been considering adding some barbed fencing to extend the height of the walls without obscuring the view to much?
Have you tried painting the black bands first, then cut in on both sides with the brown.

Could be an option. Can’t make them any worse!! Thanks, and lovely to meet you the other day 👍
The brewery looks good, I would use cobble stones for the yard area, having been to many a brewery the area there ramp is to the wall just fill up with as many barrels as possible also most barrels are colour marked for the type of beer (some had full painted ends, others were squares or triangles) dependant on brewery!

All looking good! Perhaps you can use a black Sharpie marker pen to do the barrel bandings?

Great minds!! I’ve just exactly that. Needed going over twice as the first time it looked a bit purple. So much easier 👍
Good to meet you also. Have been sorting out few things that may be of use should you build your own helix. 👍

Great tips on building your walls Andy. Brewery yard taking shape but a change is as good as a rest. Thanks for sharing regards Barry.

Yes i would extend the sleeper built loading ramp.
@Grandadstrainroom-pn3tt

Yes, definitely 👍
Looking good and nothing wrong with having your own brewery! Do feel that unloading ramp needs to be longer as I would think it would be a bit impractical only being able to unload one wagon from quite a long siding. Maybe three wagons long as you have plenty of room?.

Thanks very much. Once they’re placed in the yard they do look better 👍
Happy Friday Andy, thx for another update I agree the loading platform needs to be longer. Did you make it or is it ready to use?

Thanks. Yes, it does need extending. The platforms came from the same place as the barrels. I did consider making some but decided against in the end 👍

Search online for Skytrex. They’re a UK company. They also have some wooden crates I’m thinking of getting 👍
A sign over the entrance would look good Beechcroft Brewery?
