  1. Being a suitable donor has little to do with it. I have the 3 IE liveried 071's and 077 is the better looking of the 3 in my opinion. The factory weathering on 085 isn't great, and brings the model down slightly. 078 carries the smaller IE logo, which I like, but the majority who model that era seem to lean towards the larger logo. You get the best of both with 077 which makes it that bit more desirable.
  2. Brilliant stuff. I like the look of 183. Have you removed some of the factory weathering, or is it a renumbered loco?
  3. Yes, it's easier than having to constantly lean into the corner when trying to work on it. It's lightweight, so I can move it about when I need to. Once the majority of work is finished I will fix it in place on the layout.
  4. Lawns have now been added front and back. I have also made up and fixed down the perimeter walls. The embankments have been painted and will eventually need static grass applied. There's alot more work to be done on this area, but it's beginning to take shape.
  5. BELL BULK 30' containers with weathering applied.
  6. The road surface and driveways have now been added using sheets from Scale Model Scenery. The paving slabs are from an old Metcalfe kit I had lying around. I have also covered the raised areas on both sides with plaster cloth.
  7. Lovely stuff, Noel. Nice to see the bogie cement wagons out and about. They're a favourite of mine.
  8. 1:18 scale VOLVO F12
  9. Moving along to the opposite corner. Today was spent cutting and shaping the foam for what will be a small residential area.
  10. A little more progress. I've been building up the ground level with Das Clay. It's time consuming, but also quite relaxing.
  11. I had a feeling you'd notice them, Noel. Yes, they're a nice little detail to add.
  12. 127 & 154 seen passing through Petersbridge station with the bagged cement wagons.
  13. Cheers, Rob.
  14. Cheers, Noel. The lower half is yet to be completed. It needs a little more work. I have made up the frame with the discharge pipes. These will also need to be fixed in place.
  15. Bulk Cement.
  16. The perfect partnership. I must dig mine out and give them a spin.
  17. Love it. Without doubt, my favourite container of all time
  18. That's it. I knew there was something.
  19. Thanks, Dave.
  20. Some progress made on this side of the layout. The cabin still needs a little more work before I can call it finished.
  21. Turned out very well. Nicely finished with the weathering.
  22. Great stuff, Noel. It's always nice to see the 'Bubbles' out and about.
  23. 20' and 40' containers with some light weathering applied.
