  1. The 3D printed Humber Pigs are from a seller on eBay. The RUC and Army Land rovers are modified (by me) Oxford Diecast. Cheers Darius
  2. Up platform and station building footprints templated. I reduced the depth of the buildings to accommodate the “hidden” storage siding. Platform constructed using 2mm thick card stock. Cheers Darius
  3. Some more progress on the station. Cheers Darius
  4. Whiterock Station down platform built from 2mm card stock. I traced the edge profile using a pencil held against the centre of one of the CAF3000 coaches. Platform edging and paving added using photo paper strips cut to size - matt side up (mostly). Cheers Darius
  5. Point rodding added to the down line. Cheers Darius
  6. Cheers Darius
  7. Here you go. Cheers Darius
  8. Added a couple of 3D printed Humber Pigs to the line-up. I remember queuing up with my Mum and sister to see the film Grease outside the Avenue Cinema in Belfast one evening in 1978, whilst these vehicles were preparing to go out on patrol in the Grand Central Hotel (requisitioned by the army) next door. That cinema was a real flea pit. My mum wouldn’t let us go to it again. It was knocked down in the late 1980s along with the hotel to make way for the Castle Court Shopping Centre. Cheers Darius
  9. I used superglue and swearing. Cheers Darius
  10. The point rodding is a prominent feature of the Magheramorne Loop so this was fitted using the Wills cosmetic point rodding kits. The Wills rodding is nicely detailed but difficult to fit together as it relies on butt joint gluing rod ends together. Much easier said than done… Cheers Darius
  11. Make sure you proof read after cutting and pasting. Been there. Cheers Darius
  12. Not that I am aware of. My father was Indian (Parsee religion) and my mother is English of Irish descent (Buckley and Duffy) so no royal blood. Cheers Darius
  13. …look on my works, ye mighty, and despair. Cheers Darius
  14. NIR MPD No.63 enters Magheramorne Loop with a light goods working to Larne. A short time later, NIR 70 Class No. 71 “River Bush” passes en route to Belfast York Road. Cheers Darius
  15. Actually no, just for fun. The railway modelling that is. As for being a King; I couldn’t possibly comment. Cheers Darius
  16. Smor Cheers Darius
  17. Running recommenced Cheers Darius
  18. Still a bit too neat and tidy - needs some spoil spills, sleeper stacks, random bushes etc. Photos of the site show random concrete slabs, so I placed these over the omega loop pits of the point control system - to protect them. Cheers Darius
  19. Ballast and static grass this weekend. Cheers Darius
  20. Thanks Leslie - need to build some more Cheers Darius
  21. Quarryside scenic background completed. Cheers Darius
  22. There’s always an exception… MED 23 pulls away from Whitehead with a service to Belfast York Road. MED 19 sweeps through Trooperslane station with a York Road, Belfast - Whitehead local service. Cheers Darius
  23. Module in place. Cheers Darius
  24. Sceniked… Cheers Darius
