🟧 About the WDBC Fettlers’ Shed 🚂
The Fettlers’ Shed is the model railway ministry of Windsor District Baptist Church, located in South Windsor, NSW. Inside the shed are two fully-operational layouts: an HO/OO scale DCC layout and an N scale layout, both enjoyed by members and visitors alike. The group meets every Tuesday and Thursday, plus the third Saturday of each month, to run trains, share fe

llowship, and welcome newcomers. Our layouts feature Digitrax LocoNet and DCC-EX (Wi-Fi) control systems, reflecting a passion for both traditional model railroading and modern digital automation. Whether you bring a train to run or just come for a chat and a cuppa, the Fettlers’ Shed is a place for friendship, creativity, and community—where God’s love runs right alongside the tracks.

129. BNSF 722 Warbonnet – N Scale Camera Car Track Lap (Large Loop 30/10/2025)

View on YouTube: https://youtu.be/pKNXbJJGuN8?si=9Ym33NLHMXRiIHJS

Take another ride onboard the N scale camera car, this time as it travels the large loop of the layout — pushed once again by BNSF Warbonnet #722. 🚂📹

This video has been recorded especially for Rod, the original builder and landscaper of this N scale layout. Since the layout was donated to the WDBC Fettlers’ Shed, the team has continued improving and expanding the design — adding new sections, refining the scenery, and keeping Rod’s original work alive through every train run.

🟧 New Facebook Cover Photo! 🎨✨

Peter has updated our Windsor District Baptist Church – Fettlers’ Shed Model Railway Facebook cover photo, and it’s now officially approved by Noel and Allen! 👏

There are plenty of matching themes and hidden details if you look closely — see how many you can spot! 👀

Some might not believe this… but our BBQ A5 flyer from a while back took 13 edits before it was just right! 😅

This new cover photo was even uploaded to ChatGPT for a design appraisal, which came back saying it looked “very professional.” ✅
