Niles Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Some camcorder footage of the delightful GS&WR 186 arriving at Wicklow with the heritage set on a private charter, 22nd June 2005. Look closely at laminate brake 1916 behind the loco... I believe the odd modeller has used this technique to create the illusion of two different carriage sets. A prototype for everything indeed. 186 Wicklow ‐ Made with Clipchamp.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphaph Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I have given consideration to applying different running numbers to the opposite sides of my stock, especially the harder to regauge ballasts and bubbles to "double" what I have but in order for the illusion to work I need to be able to turn complete rakes somewhere on the layout and that requires a significant reversing loop. I haven't completely given up on the idea though. It definitely has merit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
