Nice castles

congrats like them a lot

Thanks, Michael ...

More just physics really, Richard, bearing in mind the load bearing qualities of stone vis-a-vis wood frame with infill and pictures I've seen such as this http://www.oldswinford.dudley.gov.uk/stokesay_castle_2.jpg and my own similar gatehouse which I made as part of Miss Cis's world tour in 2003.

Very nice GateHouse, Gordon! ... 

And, thanks for the "Stokesay Castle" link. Enjoyed seeing it!

And, physics aside ... it just doesn't look right to have wood on top of stone . (Must be the "intuitive" side of me that just subconsciously knows that you don't put stone on top of wood) ...

I didn't think that David and I put an LGB train inside the castle. But, I wasn't absolutely certain, so I went back and looked at the photo again. As I was looking, I remembered that I had also attached a photo of the "boxes" that are tucked under the LGB/Playmobil train table ... 

Yes, having a Playmobil train inside the house is great fun. And, I have been very fortunate to have a wonderful wife who has always agreed to my setting aside a very large area in our home for my toys ... 

I'm sure that almost everyone has seen my first indoor train that I had when we lived in Houston. But, for those of you who may not have seen it (or want to see it again), click HERE.

All the best,
Richard
