The Southsea Miniature Railway first opened in 1932 as a 9.5" gauge line operated by a pair of Bassett Lowke 4-4-2 steam locos. After the war it was taken over by new owners and reguaged to 10 1/4" and operated by a pair of steam locos built by Guest and acquired secondhand from Dudley Zoo. The railway was a huge success .....for example, over 7,000 passengers rode the train over the August bank holiday weekend in 1946.
During the late 1940s/early 50s a company called Southern Miniature Railways built three similar steam locos - 'Valiant' and 'Victory' went to Southsea while the third, 'Vanguard' went to their own railway in Poole Park...in 1951 they also took over operation of the Southsea line.
In the early 1960s the railway built a couple of petrol locos and the steamers were sold off in 1964.
The railway closed at the end of 1976 and the two petrol locos were sold to the railway at Sandham Castle on the Isle of Wight. The line at Southsea reopened the following year as a 17" gauge third-rail electric operation. In 1985 it was rebuilt back to 10 1/4" but finally closed in 1989.
The two old petrol locos were later scrapped when the Sandham Castle railway closed down. The steam locos, Valiant and Victory, spent some years in a scrapyard before being rescued, the best bits of the two were incorporated into one locomotive and this now runs on a private railway in Lincs.
Where was the railway situated? The station was located close to where the aquarium now stands. It then ran down beside the sea wall towards Southsea Castle where it turned around a loop and came back again. Back then this area was known as Children's Corner and in addition to the train there was an outdoor swimming pool, boating lake, amusements and even a zoo. Everything is now gone and apart from the aquarium the remainder of the site is now just an empty field.
I'm visiting the miniature funfair exhibition and this large ferris wheel caught my attention. Now I want to make a real ferris wheel ride; let's go outside and do it!

There are five beautiful villages of Europe in this pop up book.
If I had been smart I should have created a library of miniature books, rather than the excessively large books that I tend to acquire. I don't have a large (oxymoronic) miniature book collection, but have a sampling of about a dozen presses that I admire, and a few that my students made of which I am especially proud.

I met with this miniature horse last summer. When I opened the camera the film was rolled quite loose and I opened it outside hence the light leaks and numbers burned into the image.
The miniature railway at Felixstowe first opened in 1960 and closed around 2003. It formed a 400ft circuit on the seafront and a ride consisted of three laps around the track.
For many years it was operated by two steam locos - 2-6-0 'Rupert' and 0-6-0T 'Wendy'.

I'm not a great lover of roses, however one of our local Supermarkets had an offer on miniature roses and I had to buy this one because it was just so photogenic!!

This is a stereo photo of a garden scene in Portland. The distance between the photos is wide and the image has been fake tilt-shifted to create a dramatic miniature effect.
To view it in 3D you should center your eyes between the pair from a comfortable distance and cross your eyes. Try to form and focus on the combined image that forms between the two images. Now try harder - it's worth it!

Today is St David's Day, so I thought I'd post a picture of some very pretty miniature narcissi. I'm not Welsh, and haven't been to Wales for years. I did once have a Welsh teacher, and she always wore a daffodil on her jacket on St David's Day.
You can't really tell from the image, but these tiny blooms were only 1" wide, and they had a wonderful scent.

After a little unplanned hiatus, i'm back to say hello. Sometimes an unexpected and unplanned break is such a good thing for me. So very thankful for my wonderful family, some serious lounging and i even soaked up all the nice feelings that came from this little break.
This week is going to be a busy one. There is SO MUCH to get done. You know, like cutting the fabrics and sewing the project on my agenda for the girls. *cough March 30 cough*.
I struck gold when it comes to friends. Here is a shot of sweet Flora showing off her new mixed pastel flowers bouquet charm made especially for her by my sweet friend, Pei Li's Dollhouse Miniatures. If you don't already know, Pei Li is one of my very best creative friends. We met here on the world wide web (hee hee!) several years ago and became fast friends.
More soon, friends
Happy May, ya'll
Love to you and yours
