Brief update of yesterdays 'guaging' Apart from the assistance provided by Thomas and pals, the gauging train is a pocket wagon, Craven, MKIII EGV, Timber and Cement bubble - representing a good cross section in terms of length and width / shape of stock that will appear. I'm using this to test clearances and do some initial platform size markings (honest, not just playing ) Will get the final few track pieces down in the per way siding now and get some updated photos of the nearly finished throat and sidings...

Thanks Sulzer201, all gone.

Hey Tommy, Have it here - yep - drop me a PM and we can organise it

Welcome Steve! Have you ever done the wasp-stripes for the weedspray panels?

Love that ad

Fair play Seamus - beat me to it As the man says, and stunning job they are too Highly recommended and really bring the cravens to life

lol - is there any other kind ? 25,35,45,55,65,75,85 - I reckon we're all as bad

My plan (for Amiens Street) is to get it electrically functional once all is laid. My priority is reliable running (hence the number of droppers and wiring). Once done, I plan to weather and paint the track, lay the 'hard' stuff, like platforms, hard standings, etc, and place all the buildings. Then get stuck into ballasting and some green stuff

Very boring Especially when the 'main station' can just about accept a 141 and two cravens Great fun to build though, and great experience

Cheers lads, the idea was a basic roundy for the lads, which I could use to experiment and gain some experience with - highly recommended It gave me a much clearer idea of what i wanted, and what was possible

No photos again today tho, the boys are on mid term so the layouts been covered in rakes of thomas and pals Will get a little time tomorrow and hope to dropper and lay the per way sidings and a bit more throat, and start into the main shed area

No They can alternate running the enterprise platform

I have a repainted voyager rake in enterprise livery, and a MK3 gen van likewise... will do until I get David's set also

Cheers Declan - 1 gone, 1 remains

Now demolished to make more room for Amiens Street, here are some shots of a 6x4 tailchaser I built to experiment and for the kids
