  1. It's a nice layout alright Noel, and I love getting a chance to run some of my own trains on it.The 141 realdrive is so enjoyable and and had a very nice feel to it.I did not capture the coasting very well on the video as the MK3 train derailed a couple of times right at the wrong time.
  2. I paid a visit to the deeps layout last night to try out the new 141 Mr Sound guy chip.So here are two videos and a few photos.
  3. Looks great Des. I would hope to get a rake started some time in the future.
  4. Looks like a nice kit to make and your weathering is good.
  5. Here is a bit of video showing my own 2700 that have the TCS Decoder in the power car,and a TCS lighting decoder in the non powered car.I put extra pick ups on as some flickering occurred,so she runs very well now.
  6. I have a TCS two function chip in power car, and a TCS lighting decoder in the non powered end.It works well with the directional lighting, however I found that extra pick ups were needed at the non powered end to stop flickering.
  7. George would PVA glue have the same problem with odour causing the clouding.I can't wait to see your work on the plough vans.
  8. Thanks for the comments lads. That's a good tip there Rich. The junction signal is from the SSM stable and is supposed to work points on the other side of the bridge.
  9. That's a great idea.Dirty windows, spiders web's the lot.
  10. The roof has been glued on and a bit of weathering done.One problem came to light as I had used clear fix to affix the windows which worked fine, however as can be seen in the photo the super glue used to glue the roof on has clouded the windows on me.I made a bags of the antenna on the roof as well.However I am happy enough with the result and would hope to do a better job on the second plough van next.
  11. That's very nice, well done.
  12. Thanks for the comments lads. It's going to be fun to get the roof to fit snugly.
  13. Lovly shots Noel, and the buses blend in well with the super train era.
  14. A little update on the plough van. The bit I hate the most-painting is done along with glazing and decals and a small bit of weathering.She is still not finished yet as the roof needs to be fitted and some other bits to be done.The break pipes are not in the correct position from what I can tell, but I like where they are. Oh I also let the bloody thing fall on the floor today, some damage but nothing a bit of super glue won't fix.
  15. Nice layout and the LC gates look great.
  16. When I started with an Post in 1992, for a while I did get to bring the evening mail to Enniscorthy Station.Singel 121s were a common sight then
  17. Condolences to you and family JHB.
  18. Always nice to see this fantastic collection.Well done.
  19. A small update.lamp irons are glued on to the veranda end and I have stuck on a bit of scrap brass to represent break rigging. I stuck in some seats into the lookouts as well.The seats are from the Dapol Deltic kit. The Wickham inspection car has had the roof touched up.Between storms and cold it's bloody hard to get to the shed to get much work done this week.
  20. Lovly job, and they look well behind the A class.
