Beet wagons, what colour were they?
BosKonay replied to Robert Davies's question in Questions & Answers
From my understanding a greyish rusty shade of rust oxide -
:)

No one's that dear

Dave really did manage an uncanny resemblance!

112 is readying herself in the shed (stunning MSB sound and all!) Her rake including the just outfitted DBSO are prepped and ready for trials The per way team are on overtime from now to year end to get the mainline finished all the way around!!!! (no pressure!! _ ) On the stone - I know! I'll consult with Glenderg tomorrow

It was one of the inspirations Tho cladding this monster in stone might cause me to lose the rest of me hair

Hmm, I'm waiting on the glue to go off on a two row option, will test that shortly also...

At the moment, there will be sweeping hillside both sides of it, sweeping down to the valley floor where maybe a river and country lane will intersect it. The viaduct itself it beautifully finished, so much so that I'm thinking of painting and weathering it as it is, as a concrete structure...
-
This is already my favourite end of the layout :)
-
Any Irish?
-
Complete with gentle incline to meet Cross Landing Canyon Bridge, cement terminus on the left, Carraigmore Viaduct spanning the as yet un-named valley, and a lifting section to retain access to the storage end.... Can't recommend Dave highly enough - in real terms, he was cheaper than trying to do it myself (badly) and I'm left with baseboards that truly look like pieces of furniture!
-
Today has been mainly baseboards!

Appropriate category at least

Any sneaky snaps to share?

There are also 3mm cylinder type, which would let you glue them in place with the poles facing vertically? I have seen the same issue with the delayed uncoupling not working reliably, so i've just put magnets in each siding, rather that at the throat locations. (with the cost of these things, you can almost put them everywhere!) I'll try a multi-row install today and see if it helps.
-
Hmm, yep, so far I'm sticking 4 in a row and slotting the 'brick' into the sleeper gap. It works by pushing the couplers apart very well. What kind of problems are you seeing? I wonder would poles up make them more effective.... (will try!)
-
Have you a kadee gauge to check height? I found some of mine where too low and would catch on the magnet. Once I adjust all the Kadees to the same height, they work well. I also saw a tip online for putting in multiple rows of magnets to create a larger uncoupling area

A bird in the hand is worth more than one next year

Never ending inspiration :bd:

Looking good!! Could never get tired of her

Your own lovely handiwork sir She's been lonely in preservation

That's what I'm afraid of
