Just dropped you a PM Frank!

Cheers Broithe Gonna hopefully get a bit of time over the weekend to power up the laid track, so I can 'test' thoroughly

8208 explores the new powered throat.

Quick update now the weight is off the per way / ballast bank sidings. The station throat is shaping up now and is now fully powered, next I'll get the carriage sidings and this new per way area powered up, before laying the freight yard and main shed areas to the front .

ouch! Bring a tear to the eye!

Lima Class 201 model NIR livery 209 Super clean, not in original box but never run No detailing parts - as is. Lovely clean example for collector or to run

(Yep, she's pretty filthy) If Paddy get his done, I reckon she'll be tucked into a back siding to await the scrap man

I'm planning to use woodland scenics. http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/show/category/RoadSystem For the sheds, hardstanding, and plan to concrete over the entire freight area too for easy truck access

Is it bad that makes you wish we had police like in the USA, or even the Gendarmerie de France?

I think it looks good! What's the overall space you have availabke?>

Looking good!!

And a shot of the 'completed' station throat (missing just the junction with the mainline) And shots of the whitemetal 121 as requested by heirflick!

A small update with the 'gauging' train I'm using

Unbelievable!

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
