    Apparently sheep tails hang down and goats tail stick out or up. Probably the other way in Oz.

    Continuing the theme of restricting the size of my layouts (Just in Case & Noch Noch) to fit in the space available in our apartment (in compliance with the panning and planning dept chief) I've adapted a cheap wooden artist paint box into a case for all my running stock (for both layouts) ... there are more to fit in and although a modest amount in comparison to many, I think it prudent to introduce the sight of them gradually to the other 5/8ths ...
