So to compensate, here are a few general update shots Trying out some 'backstreet' buildings that will be behind the main terminus building. The beginnings of a level crossing and street scene at the opposite corner of the layout, just beyond Blackroad Road Junction. And a general 'state of play' looking into the terminus over the throat.

A bit silly really, I'm clearly having too much fun with the video editing software now, need to get back to the layout

~I've a few of these which I love http://www.dccconcepts.com/index_files/DCCmpdstorage.htm Same idea, but available in three sizes and has a moulded foam inner (very protective). For those expensive, sound equipped, wired up tender locos, they are the perfect storage option.

Some detail drawings here http://irishrailmodels.com/2012/01/25/d301-class-locomotive-drawings/

Hope so

Just wow again Patrick. Just standard scatter? Looks amazing. It's fantastic to see the track settling into the landscape!
-
Yep Dug out me old hornby one. She even has lights. Now to get some black spray paint :)
-
Grey all over and a yellow stripe. Even I'd chance a respray!
-
I wonder will the grey hide the dirt better? What was wrong with the black and silver or was there a deal going on the grey paint

It actually looks to return the 071 to their American heritage Really makes them look more like a big lump of Detroit iron

Oh jaysus! It's real!

Modern image be damned :)

I have an older railroad 08, which isnt great, but have a couple of hornby 08's and a bachmann, will dig out the boxes as soon as I get a chance. Would be a nice little runner in front of a short rake of freight, or shunting a few cravens
-
She looks great! Will definitely chance me arm at it
-
That's just gorgeous heirflick Any advice for souls thinking an 08 and a lick of black paint will do a nice job?
-
Absolute thing of beauty

I've a little gap due to my point geometry in the station throat. I put a little three mil length of track with a joiner on both ends and used it to close the gap. You wouldn't notice it now.
-
With a small pliers you should be able to grip the rail and pull it to close the gap a bit? The shorting, sounds like you need insulated joins at the crossing - have you a pic?
-
Looking fantastic Noel!! Love the livery!

The bogies - just pull them clean off
-
I think it's a 'feature' of the couplers - particularly if you are using kadees. I've had to prop up the ones I use with small offcuts of plastic.
-
I use a Lenz system for locos and a hornby Elite for the accessory bus (points). You can plug both into the same PC
