Oh, and here are Dave (modelbaseboards) stunners on the right hand side, ready for the right hand loop and what will be a Whitehead inspired preservation depot:
The photos don't do them justice - they are stunning - all individually numbered, beautifully detailed and have a lovely weight to them!
Next, I played with a new Kibri kit-built Plasser
As you can see in the last photo, I also fitted two more point motors under the board for the double slip.
Next, I tested the freight sidings for length - with a rake of 12 of Hidden Agenda's 46' Container Flats!
Some Catch-Ups - finally got an hour or two upstairs today!!
First off, RedRich sent me some Hurst Models orange piping/trunking - they look fantastic!
She is.
A few customised bits, new tender sides, some of Weshty's decals iirc and a lick of paint.
Would def be in the market for a new version in current flying snail
Have't been in the attic in nearly two weeks Anthony - but am lovingly fondling those wagons :) Will get up some shots hopefully tomorrow of them trying out the freight yard
Looking Great! Roryon! I'll echo Anthony in thanking you for taking the time to post!!
Check out the Bachmann Irish Rail 2700 railcars - you;ll still find them in the Irish model shops - it would look good stopping at that little terminus!!
Fair play Eoin - you've brought a new Irish model to the market and are making sales!
You've already done more than the other 99% of modellers and are to be congratulated. If you can improve the model through feedback and experience even better!
