  1. Whilst awaiting the two MKIV coaches to arrive from eBay & some other parts & materials for the diorama, I've made a start to designing the stations for the modular portable layout I'm hoping to start next year or so....

     

    Here is Holyfast Station Hub design draft....

     

    Happy with the top view, need to make the front & side wider.

     

    Inspired by Belfast Grand Central (Weavers Cross) Station & Glasgow Queen Street Station....

     

    The interior will be designed at a later stage.

     

    The bus station section will hold 10 - 15 buses in the bus platforms whilst the train station section can hold five - 8 carriage trains.

     

    As the design progresses, i'll update here.... as per usual, this project isn't a priority & will be slow.

     

    Thanks,

    Tony.

  2. Whilst awaiting parts & materials to arrive, I've taken some time in Canva to design the livery for the two DeDietrich DVTs & the MIR class 201 locomotive....

    Whilst this project is on going, I've also ordered parts & materials to start on the x2 Holywood embankment dioramas as to able to make a start on these over the next few weekends & evenings.

    I'm also starting work on a track plan for a future modular, portable layout which will be an improvement on the old 'Somewhere' layout from 'Anthony's Workbench'.

    These projects will be slow & will take their time, along with the fact I have many other on going & paused projects too! - But, as BR always said, we'll get there. 

     

    Thanks,
    Tony.

      The list could be endless. Anything UTA or NIR in CIE black'n'tan on the basis that there was never a border. Anything Irish at all in BR corporate blue on the basis that the whole of ireland became part of British Rail!
