After a few hours of burning fingers I ended up with this

So one of the main problems when you model an era or railway company that isn't in the main stream market means only one thing......Kit building the 95% of the stock. So here is the start of a Dia 61 20T L&YR 6 wheel gaurds van being built from a D&S kit.

Hello, So its been a while since I last posted. Not much has happened to be honest as with having all the show bookings cancelled/postponed there hasn't been a reason to set the layout up. So here are a couple of photos taken at the 2016 Derby show, I think I am working my way though the pile of stock kits for the layout as old converted RTR stock is phased out. I will post up some photos of the kits as im building them if people are intrested?

Some of the rails being added to the sleepering. I had also best pull my finger out and crack on with it as the layout now has its first exhibiton booking for next year......
-
Thanks Robert, It ran find before (got a couple of good ones) but the person I fitted it for wanted a stay alive and it now runs for 20 seconds without the sound on across the bench.

Hi all, Not much has been happening on the layout as its had to stay packed up in its travel crate due to visitors at home and Ive been concentrating on the big train set for the past few months but I'm please to announce that we will be attending the 2022 Railex show. It will be nice to get out to exhibit with the layout. Here is a view of the layout from the scenic end. Taken at the Perth exhibition in 2018, cant believe its been that long!! Thanks for looking.

HI all, Been abit busy recently but here is two of the Model Rail Mag 16xx. It was decided to remove the PCB and it was fitted with a Zimo sound decoder and stay alive. I also added some crew.

So its been a while since the last post due to work, lots of gluing being done...... Any way due to the size of the layout we can only set it up when we are at shows or at our working weekends and this weekend is just one of those weekends. Lots of work was being done but these had truned up so it would have been rude not to pop them on the layout for a few photos Lovley set of wagons and too modern to be run on the layout at a show but once I've done the support coaches they can have a few trips round when we are working on the layout.
-
When we first got the layout we had did think that the task of converting it to DCC wouldn't be that difficult, well we may have been a bit wrong with that assumption. These are a couple of pics of the 2 contorl panels....... The main panel Fiddle Yard panel Since these where taken we have removed most of the wiring and the main panel is now being fitted out using the megapoints controls for the signals and points.
-
So after posting the photo of the sign post without the sign I've been making a new one to try and reduce the list of jobs that need doing as there is a provisional exhibition invite for 2022. A few mins with some scrap etch and a bit of spare rail and it now just needs a coat of paint and planting on the layout.
-
Running round the ballast working.
-
Sadly not, They fall a few years outside the time frame for the layout at shows plus there are enough wires under it to prevent extra being added to the top ....... However thats not to say that if you stood line side you might see one or possibly two of them in photos and videos in the future

Spaghettie time........

Looking at 37 033 leaving the yard has reminded me that I need to replace the stop board that use to live on the pole that is level with the door on the 37

Hello everyone, Been a bit busy with things recently so not had much chance to post anything up. Been working on this recently The chassis needs a bit of a clean up before the next step. Excuse the photo from the spray booth, it was the only place left to take a photo that doesn't have anything in the background your all not meant to see. Thanks
