I made the destination blind transfers myself using MS Paint and white decal paper. Cheers Darius

Hi Leslie, I’ll see how long a spoil siding I can sensibly squeeze in and see how many wagons are needed Cheers Darius

Modified EFE Ulsterbusses. Cheers Darius

Improved some EFE busses whilst waiting for the rain to stop at Spa. Still need to make and apply some different numberplate decals… Cheers Darius

It’s a 3D printed resin model that I purchased from eBay. It just needed cleaning up, priming and painting. I added finials to the landings to make it look more like the prototype. Cheers Darius

Next week the baseboards arrive for my new, home-based, Irish-themed layout - Whiterock. i already had a plan for a smaller layout of the same name (shown below) but now have a bit more space available. Perhaps you can recognise its inspiration. I have ordered baseboards from Model Railway Solutions to the following plan. The larger layout side will enable a two track “roundy-roundy” with greater space for spoil sidings and a less cramped station area. Really looking forward to getting started. Cheers Darius

Modified Metcalfe cardboard kit. The playground walls are made from 2mm card stock with Scalescenes brick paper applied. I added Scalescenes tile strips to the Metcalfe roofs to add texture and colour variation. Painted brass rod rainwater downpipes hide the exposed card edges of the kit corners. Cheers Darius

Back with something Irish - repainted Oxford Diecast Bedford CF vans in NIR livery. Based on the vans in this image of the Magheramorne loop, which I will be incorporating kinda sorta in a new layout that I will hopefully be commencing in the next month or so. Cheers Darius

Chassis fitted to Class 46 body. Awaiting 3D printed buffer beams from eBay. Cheers Darius
-
Mainline chassis modified to fit the MTK Class 44 body. Cheers Darius
-
For the record, I have used a Dremel to grind out a lot of the wonkiness in the original castings. What wonkiness remains is in the large down to me. Cheers Darius
-
Whilst awaiting the arrival of a chassis for the Class 44, I thought I’d get this part completed (by someone else) MTK example up to the same level of completion as a Class 46. Some disassembly required… Disassembled. Reassembly completed along with joint filling. Dunprimin. Dunpaintin…again. Cheers Darius
-
Dunpaintin. Cheers Darius

BR Class 51 Super Deltic - never built. Seeing this has got me thinking about that kit… Cheers Darius
-
Longer etched bodyside grilles fitted and ends dipped in custard. Cheers Darius
-
“Superdeltic” eh? Looks like a cross between a Class 55 and a Western. In any event it’s a Q Kit so I wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole. Cheers Darius

Started yesterday afternoon after the F1… Getting the hang of these now. Cheers Darius
