  1. Progress continues with the diorama beginning to take shape
  2. My entry for a local competition is a diorama of the mighty v-22 osprey conducting air lift operations of a hmmwv. Here are a few pictures so far showing some of the modifications done, along with dry fitting before gluing and some of the painting and weathering done to some of the areas.
  3. I'm open to correction but I believe barracks Street would have been one of the very few places it happened up into the 90s
  4. Agreed, I like it better myself but can understand the reason behind why it wasn't
  5. With the correct sound chip now installed its time for some bonnet first arrivals at the yard. 20240229_153237.mp4
  6. Is something similar being produced for the nir stock?
  7. Yeah I got three of them together off ebay for a very good price if I remember correctly. Had them a few years now but o ly getting around to them
  8. Eagled eyed indeed. The coaches are ex scotrail mk2s I'm repainting for myself. Here is one I finished earlier. And don't worry there is no oil under barracks Street so the hmmwvs won't be bringing any freedom.
  9. Unfortunately the sound chip is indeed an 201. Thank too @ttc0169 for your help. I'll be making contact tomorrow to organise a correct chip. On the other hand i finally got the lenght of the back scene up along the back to box in the layout.
  10. 20240218_102249.mp4 Rrecorded start up of my 121 with the sound chip I recently bought. The opposite cab cab and bonnet lights to the direction of travel if someone has any idea about this I'd appreciate any info.
  11. I have noticed that when I drive it cab first the bonnet headlights are on and vise versa. I'll record a video of this and the start up and maybe you can provide more insight?
  12. I bought it marks. Although an esu decoder I did find it odd it came in a MM package
  13. No, 121 sound chip according to the package.
  14. 20240216_180628.mp4 Class 121 No.130 arrives at Barracks Street 20240216_180628.mp4
  15. From pictures I've been looking at your work was not in vain haha.
  16. And might that be before or after the 201s????
  17. My ear were burning. I'm sure I could find jobs for another 071 or two
  18. Hopefully it will have an equally grubby partner soon
  19. Arrived today. Roll on Friday evening until I get home to get my weathering hands on them.
  20. Now the scenic work can continue with all the gremlins worked out electronically.
  21. They look fantastic. Can't wait for mine to arrive
  22. Trick is to get her to buy them for you
  23. No not at all, there is an esu decoder in it so unless the single tail light is programed for it I can't say.
  24. With the wiring fully completed a few issues have developed. 1. There is a dead section of track. This is on a point which was never intended to have a point motor as it is permanently set into the yard. While it had been pre wired I simple overlooked wiring it up. 2. The point motor at the far end of the yard has seized up, and won't throw. I've disconnected it and retested with a new 9v. Unfortunately it looks like I'll need a new one. On the other hand I did have some time to do some shunting. 20240128_190627.mp4
