Dunluce Castle

They look absolutely beautiful, a real credit to the builder.

I could look at those photos all day, thanks for sharing.

Our layout will be going.

The change of venue should be interesting, I really liked the aurora centre.

Some really good ones there

Thanks for the comment.

Yep she's 4mm OO Gauge.

The interior took a while to get right, but I think I'm there,

Thanks

Hi,

This is how it currently stands, I've painted the inside and added rust to the frame work.

What do we think?

I seen that the other day, it's absolutely superb, makes me laugh every time.

I may be completely wrong? But when 111 hauled all the 450 classes to be scraped there was also 2 Gatwicks coupled up between the engine and the 450s to provide extra braking power.

So this may be the reason why?

I'm definitely not certain so I may be wrong?

I have got all the plans sorted out, but if anyone has any photos that they'd like to share then please feel free,

Many thanks

Absolutely beautiful. The interior is superb, a real credit to you, well done.

Captures the look of the 80 class perfectly.

That looks absolutely beautiful, the paint job is amazing, well done mate, the hand painted NIR logo looks superb.

Can't wait to see all 3 cars finished.

I agree the under frames are the hardest part of a wagon to get right, due to the lack of plans and photos which show under frames.

My wagons are built on Dapol RTR chassis although I have thought about using Ratio chassis in the future.

Hi,

Many thanks for your help guys.

I will make another NCC brake van soon, a 10 ton one this time and follow your advice.

Yes, Popeye I have seen those drawings in the resources section before they are top notch.

If anyone has any more info on NCC wagons? Then do please feel free to post.

Hi,

I'm hoping some people can help me out here please.

I'm wanting to make a rake of 15/17 NCC wagons to go along with my (not yet built) NCC U2.

I have looked through all the books and done some research but all I can find are vague photos showing wagons in the background.

So if anyone has any plans or photos of NCC wagons could you please post them here or send me a PM.

I'd be very grateful.

Many thanks

Nelson

Here's some of my recent work,

Hi,

I haven't started the 12 ton van yet as some much needed research needs to be done, like detail on the under frame.

But I have started another side project to keep me going.

It's detailing a dapol 5 plank wagon.

I know it looks messy but it will all be tided up later on,

And I know i should have used brass, but I haven't got any so. I decided to make do with plasticard.

Any comments, questions, constructive criticism, etc... Please feel free.

Thanks Gordon71 thats the job. I love that 80 class in departmental livery would love to hear her running.

Your wish has been granted,

What a superb diorama, really beautiful work there.

Superb work, everything looks so realistic.

Here's some inspiration for you, if you don't mind.

Some great shots there, I've been filming the sandite myself recently.

Superb

They look superb, an absolute credit to you Lima33 for producing such beautiful models of what was an amazing DEMU.

Hiya, I had trouble with it as well

Edit: answer has been removed sorry.

Simply amazing

Thank you mate

Is it alright to start a layout thread here on the "irish model layouts" section, even though the layout isn't irish it's LNER?
