    It all looks great to me but i think you are a perfectionist. You know where the bad bits are so you see them but nobody else does.

    Here are two pic's taken at RPSI Whitehead showing the grey livery.

    I would use plasticard as it is easy to work with. Watch some youtube vid's to learn the do's & don'ts. Try to keep it simple, not too thin or thick.

    Beautiful work.

    Here's a couple from SSM. Do you want pic's of the real thing?

    Great quality pictures, you must have some amazing ones. Do you have a flickr account? if not you should so these great pictures can be seen by everyone that was not around then or missed these events.

    Very good, that makes a big difference.

    They look just right, good job.

    Can i ask about the blue strips? Where they on them all?
  10. popeye
    It might be they will separate at some point and one will pull ballast wagons and the other will pull spoil wagons. Here is an old picture of double heading, not my picture.

    The picture at Bray above has a strong blue cast which i have corrected so you can compare.

    Colour films back then would be different from one brand to another. Fuji film was warmer than Kodak for transparency film. Over or under exposure would affect the colour and the type of daylight. Colour negative film and prints were rarely correct. You only need to look through some railway books and you will see how many shades of orange there are. Plus they were repainted many times over the years.

    Very nice. Will you be living there and will it have a garden railway?

    Nice work. I used to love watching Thomas the tank many years ago, it was very well done even back then.

    The G class looks great. Maybe do a video sometime?

    A very nice model and it was a quick build, well done.

    That's a lot of buses. And the garage looks great.

    Very nice and neat paint work.
  20. popeye
    That's a very nice model, it will sell well.

    Here are 3 pictures of the control desk for the G class cab.

    Here are two pictures of Saintfield station in co Down showing it then and now. Thanks to ernie's irish archive and to the station owner for letting me take some pictures last summer.

    That looks really good and i don't see anything wrong with the soldering. Try to add as much weight to it as possible or it won't pull much.

    It's good to see that the museum will remain there and be open to the public. I will try and get up there next year when it opens.

    CDR Meenglas No4 has been moved from Foyle valley railway to RPSI Whitehead. Hopefully someday restored.
