  1. Moving back to my SD40 build I suppose I can call it. Having biten the bullet I order a set of ditch lights for the front and installed them and have put down the first layer of primer for the livery change. Your thoughts are appreciated. Chris
  2. H vans from IRM next to receive the weathering treatment. Chris
  3. With the frame untouched so far. The effects of the washes really add to the run down appearance of the vans. Your thoughts as always are appreciated. Chris
  4. Oh I like that. It's ingenious.
  5. Love the detailing on the wagons. Scratch. Built?
  6. That's fair, I get like that too something, especially when I trying something new or trying to get a certain effect. There is always my weathering service if you wish.
  7. Continuing on with my dapol repaints the first stages of weathering have begun. Beginning with the roofs, the first layers of colour to give it a sun bleached look. These are just the starting layers. Moving onto the body sides, applying a dark brown filter layer. To give the panels a sort of ingrained dirty look. Next will be the actual weathering. Your thoughts as always are appreciated. Chris
  8. Must get Barracks Street ready for this
  9. Appreciate it. That's the cleanest you'll ever see them. The aging process has begun
  10. No no these were my own project. Also to build up a catalogue of work available through my services page at the same time.
  11. Rake of repainted Dapol Vans and a number of 5 plank wagons.
  12. Arrived home yesterday to two packs waiting. Might order more if budget and stock allow
  13. With all the ground work in the yard complete and first stages of painting done the scene is really starting to come together nicely.
  14. Just picked up a few H's myself
  15. Nice little quick project repainting and weathering these three old Hornby and bachmann wagons I about 20 years ago. Having got rid of those old massive couplers can anyone suggest a good chain coupling option? Cheers in advance Chris

      • WOW!
  21. Fictional Friday: With the yard officially closed to container traffic, in the interim Irish Rail make use of the area for storage of out of use rolling stock. Here six corrugated wagons sit awaiting their final faith.
  22. That's brilliant thank you. Some great shots of the yard which will be invaluable for adding details later.
  23. In the early morning light three LB flats are left to rot on a section of disused track near the yard entrance.
  24. Cheers Rob. Great to get back at it after the break
  25. With better lighting and painted shaded, and weathered the hard standing in this area is coming along nicely.
