    That's fantastic, did you have any trouble with the glazing on your canopy?

    Thanks Popeye for your comment, Over the last week I've been building these 2 Cambrian LNER kits but found them to be incredibly close to those used by the UTA so painted them in UTA colours, after all the LNER did build wagons for the UTA to replace those destroyed by the Belfast blitz, so they are close enough and I'm happy with them, I've weathered them lightly and added a timber load to one of them but I think the wooden planks are a it too big and coarse for OO gauge? So they might be replaced. Many thanks Nelson

    There's no way that QR code works, wow, someone must have tried it out?

    Just as a heads up the above wagon M53 has been re-painted and is now in its pristine colour ready for me to have another bash at weathering as my fist attempt was pretty horrific tbh.

    Hello Everyone, Thank you for your kind comments guys ^ Here's my attempt at pushing the weathering even further, I'm a bit unsure of it. so be honest please what do we think? The one on the left is the new one. Nelson

    Saturday 8th November, Keep this date free in your diarys, "Ireland's biggest one day model railway exhibition will feature over 30 railway layouts and associated exhibits." It's one not to be missed! Many layouts including Bleach Green, Lisburn, ballyclare and for the first time Rowlands Castle, a southern railway layout based during WW2 in preparation for D-Day.

    I grew up with 80s, 450s and the current 3000 and 4000 class, but have never witnessed a proper goods train apart from 111s with ballast trains, yet despite all that, I model the steam era somewhat 60 years before my time

    Hello everyone, Got 3 more spoil wagons weathered and I'm really quite proud of them, so that's 4 now done and onto the next 4, obviously if there's anything seriously wrong with them or anything that can be improved be sure to let me know, I'm happy to take constructive criticism as it all helps Many thanks Nelson

    Thanks guys for your comments, I appreciate them a lot, it's a way of telling me that I'm doing something right and not completely wrong lol, the spoil wagon was the one I was unsure about because they were quite unique and I had to rely on few colour pictures and sometimes colour pics can be quite misleading? But it seems I've done alright, just finished painting the other 7 and will be applying transfers shortly, happy modelling folks

    Hello Folks, This is my (nearly finished) spoil wagon, it's an excellent kit, goes together beautifully and the detail is great. I hope I have got the colour of the weathering right? I can't decide Nelson

    Hello everyone, I managed to get the brake van, cattle wagons and coal wagons complete last week and then I began work on Northern Ireland's most famous wagons, the spoil wagons. These are done by Provincial Wagons and are absolutely superb kits, such a joy to put together, I have built 8 (5 for myself and 3 for a friend) I've nearly finished one of them, just the buffer heads to do then onto the other 7 Many thanks Nelson
  17. Dunluce Castle

    Must drop an email to SSM, thanks for the heads up, do you know if he does LMS NCC ones?
  20. Dunluce Castle
    Superb, absolutely superb, may I ask where you got the transfers from please? I really need to get a few.
  21. Dunluce Castle
    Absolutely fantastic I have a few to build myself, I see you replaced the buffers, what did you use?

    The top gear team used those paintball tanks in an episode, so funny

    The bachmann range of economy sounds was canceled a while back I think, but there's always hornby and their £25 TTS sound option, or train tech and their £40 sound chip and speaker....

    I know it's not much but I made these ratio level crossing gates for my brothers layout.
