BosKonay Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 A few quick updates from whats evolving into a mess / fueling point Quote
BosKonay Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Thanks Heirflick - just a plonk really. Plan is to get some durty concrete down around the area, maybe fence it off a little, and needs some fuel tanks and details, but I think I'm happy with this layout. The battery house will move to live beside the main shed, more like the prototype Quote
heirflick Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) could you model fuel oil spillages around the pumps? Edited January 31, 2014 by heirflick Quote
Dave Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Looking great! Love that lighting tower. Really looking the part. Quote
ttc0169 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 Nice job Stephen-where did you get the lighting tower? I could do with a few like that dotted around the depot and yard... Quote
BosKonay Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 The tower lights are from express models in the uk http://www.expressmodels.co.uk/acatalog/WORKING_YARD_TOWER.html Absolutely gorgeous. All brass and light up brilliantly. I've 4 of them so far for here and the sheds. Quote

BosKonay Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Just a pic to show I am still trying to find time on the layout Have painted the sky, ballasted some more, eased a bend near the terminus that was upsetting the DD set, and gotten all the computer control working and the layout control working on the iphones/ipads.... Literally feck all to 'show' for it but I feel less stressed and more in control Have a batch of motors hopefully en route, and I have packed away all the stock bar one DD set (for clearance testing... ) so that I can push on and get all the backscenes done and all the track down, wired and motors installed before I start playing again! Here, 9002 sits at the head of an 'in need of the wash' set in the yard sidings facing platforms 4 and 5, waiting for the new bend to set so she can take a spin out Quote
Georgeconna Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I must admit the Colours in that shot look great, Grey sky, Wall to match not too mind the loco as well. Typical Irish day!! Quote
Kirley Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Nice to see progress on this layout continues, anything that brings smooth running is worth the time spent to get it right. Quote
BosKonay Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I agree Kieran, nothing worse or more heartbreaking than ripping up sections, but sometimes it has to be done Quote
Dave Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Lovely scene! Very Irish, layout is taking shape:tumbsup: Quote
rajaman Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 Great thread on your fantastic layout, just goes to show what can be done with planning & hard work, I now know who to call when it comes to digital switching :-) Mark Quote
Noel Posted August 24, 2014 Posted August 24, 2014 I've just spend the past hour looking at some of the superb layouts and skills on here. This one is absolutely incredible. Respect. Quote
heirflick Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 shame on you for letting that train get so dirty:rolleyes:...great job though=D Quote
BosKonay Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 I feel like i need a defibrillator not a post update! I have made a little progress, and will try post a quick catch up in the coming days, in the mean time, here is a peek at the new Amiens Street signalbox, built by Glenderg of this parish to the (now demolished) Connolly prototype. I've fitted some LEDs in the ceiling, which could possibly too with a few less volts too... More anon... Quote
Dave Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Wow, looks brilliant. Love the interior. Quote
rebelred Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 That's absolutely majestic Bos!! but if i were you i'd have the signalman horizontal on a couch if my experience of them is anything to go by!!!! Quote
BosKonay Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Thanks lads was actually looking for some OO furniture Quote

RedRich Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 The mans work as always is stunning. Also great to see an update Stephen. For an interior excluding the lever frames I'd have a look at the Ratio interior kit as a starter. Rich, Quote
