Mmmmm......just beautiful

[Dave]

Very nice! Is that O gauge?

[Noel]

She looks fabulous.

 

What is the construction?

[A4mallard]

It's made of perspex sheet, and spare bits. There's a bit work gone in to her. I do not know the exact scale but it's bigger than G, possibly 1/28. I'm going to start the boggies tomorrow and some final bits of detailing. Anyone with any close up photos of 121/141 boggies I would appreciate it.

p.s. I am looking for some detailed plans of Hueston station. I would be very grateful.

thanks for the comments

Lovely shot of 134, Dave!

[A4mallard]

Hurricanemk1c, I do a bit everyday but I'm working on a couple of other projects at the same time. I started about 3 weeks ago.

Wrenneire, Lovely photos and much appreciated.

It's by no means perfect,I hope I captured it. I started on a whim and I have to finish it now.

Thanks for the comments lads

Lovely work! Amazing that you're modelling N scale and "Super G"

[David Holman]

That is one very nice piece of work.

[Weshty]

That I seriously fine. I thought it was CGI photoshopped onto a workbench initially. The shadowing is very tasty.

 

G class, num num.

[jhb171achill]

Wow!!

 

What gauge is it? Didnt realise it was that big....

[DiveController]

Wow!!

 

What gauge is it? Didnt realise it was that big....

That's why I called it "Super G":D

What a monster

[jhb171achill]

G track? 15mm gauge?

[David Holman]

Hells bells, did not realise it was large scale. Am even more impressed now.

Never ceases to amaze me what is out there. Thesecbig models have such presence. At Ally Pally a couple of years ago the was an American G scale, standard gauge 'depot'. Around 10m long, it was enough for a decent number of box cars, plus a Budd for passenger traffic. Looked fab, ran really well. That was the same year I came REALLY close to G scale three truck Shay.

The 121 is superb, well done sir! Am guessing it will be 45mm gauge.?

[A4mallard]

3 1/2 inch gauge, it's a static model.

Still not finished needs handrails,lights,signs and numbers

Very nice. I love the weathering. You got the single brake cylinder I see. Now all you need is a set of buffers for it to run into.

[RobertRoche]

Not sure how I missed this build but it is amazing, well done!

[craven1508]

[RedRich]

A fantastic piece of modelling Bren. I can only imagine the time and effort that went into the build.
