  1. Here's a few photos of how the layout's progressing My first attempt at ballasting. I think I used too much but it's not the most crucial part of the layout so I don't mind that much. 220 idles in the siding while 177 goes past light engine 177 takes a break If yous have any tips please say
  2. What other freight services now operate to Belview port? Is it just the timber trains?
  3. And even if it isn't a bad price (I wouldn't know about prices for these things) it's still WELL out of my reach!
  4. Well, it's not actually North Wall anymore, but it is still a port! More like Rosslare though... Still don't know how to change the title of the thread I would consider a ship, but at the moment the sea and ships will just be shown as a back scene
  5. Oh ok thanks for that
  6. cheers Rich just wondering, does anyone know when the LED clusters were introduced to the 071s? Late 90s?
  7. Emmm I don't think they should be? If you look at the photo of 088 the headlight surrounds look pretty orange to me? :L
  8. I've nearly got the right half of the layout's track put down I tried my hand at ballasting for the first time in the loco stabling point. I think I used too much, but I don't really mind as it's meant to look kind of old and unkempt. Will put a few pics up later!
  9. Just heard model shop's 071 sound decoder. Have to say the video doesn't do it justice compared to what if sounds like hearing it in person! Absolutely stunning!
  10. I think the admin can modify the biggest photo size, so if you can tell him the dimensions of the photo, then he might be able to increase the maximum size?
  11. That's probably about half the size of my whole layout!!!!!! Beautiful
  12. As I was putting down the track today, I changed the design slightly as I thought my runaround loop was too small. I added a small loco stabling/ re-fueling point as well as changing the runaround loop. After arriving, the loco can either propel it's train back into the tunnel, and run around it's train in the fiddle yard, or, if the fiddle yard is full, a station pilot, probably a 141, will release the loco. The loco can shunt in the freight yard or refuel
  13. I can't wait for the freight livery!!!!!!!!!!
  14. Right thanks very much That's fine even if I'm not using foam underlay, right?
