enniscorthyman Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Great videos Kieran,and always nice to see action on your layout=D. Quote
Hunslet 102 Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Top banana again Kieran,your A class looks smart in the green Quote
kevrail Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 U My new A Class just out of the paint shop, A Murphy Lima 201 No. 209 on a Bachmann Class 66 chassis. Speechless!!!! Fantastic Korean Quote
kevrail Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) I meant fantastic Kieran. Edited March 3, 2014 by BosKonay Quote
jhb171achill Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 The back scenes look amazing too - great detail all over this layout. Absolutely stunning stuff! Quote
Kirley Posted March 9, 2014 Author Posted March 9, 2014 I was very disappointed when 071 Class No. 071 came out in Black & Silver livery. As I did not trust my skills at redoing 071 I went to Anthony (the Weathering Guru ) with 071 and 073. In return I got my 071 in Orange and Black plus a Freight liveried 081 plus some weathering - well you could not go to Anthony without some weathering. Delighted with the results. Quote
Kirley Posted March 24, 2014 Author Posted March 24, 2014 A video of A Class 045 with a rake of Cement Bubbles. The Bubbles are now in their usual weathered condition. Quote
BosKonay Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Absolutely gorgeous work Kirley - and as for that A - stunning!!!! She's making light work of that rake Quote
scahalane Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Wow, the layout looks suburb. The station is a work of art. Love that A-class as well lovely detail on it. The bubbles look great but I think they need one last light dusting of the airbrush to knock back the cream patches as there a bit over powering. Well done keep the images coming. Quote
Warbonnet Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 About the best looking Silver Fox A I've seen Kieran, you really polished that up. Top drawer! Quote
Weshty Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Love the layout, ballasting looks real, and not too homogenous in colour and the rolling landscape backdrop is class. Quote
amdaley Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Well done. That's a great railway room you have there. Looks fantastic. Some very nice carpentry work going on there. Quote
Dave Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 That's stunning Kieran, the rake looks superb and the A class is a work of art. Well done Quote
enniscorthyman Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Bubbles look great Kieran,and 045 is looking and running well. Quote
Kirley Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 I think they need one last light dusting of the airbrush to knock back the cream patches as there a bit over powering. . Thanks Scahalane, I followed your advice and toned down the Cement Ivory paint colour. Also thanks for all the kind comments. Here's a picture of all my Cement bubbles with the MIR's being the lighter coloured ones. Quote
Kirley Posted March 25, 2014 Author Posted March 25, 2014 A video of A Class No. 012 with a rake of Beet Wagons. The Wagons are brand new and have not seen a Sugar Beet yet. Again the double motor bogie A Class has no difficulty in pulling this long rake. Also a quick glimpse of a C Class No. 230. Quote
BosKonay Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 What a treat! A's passing on beet and cement, a sulzer skulking in the yard, just absolutely brilliant :) The internal detail on the beet is lovely - who built them? Quote
enniscorthyman Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Oh so nice,brings back the good old days. Quote
scahalane Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 The whole layout just looks amazing, you have some amount of stock, love it. Quote
201bhoy Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Superb!!!!! Could we see the bubbles in the freight yard please? With an 071 or 141 pair? Would look right at home there! Quote
Kirley Posted April 21, 2014 Author Posted April 21, 2014 It's been ages since I did any work on the layout. The building of the Class 80 set has taken up all my time but I've set it aside to do some bits and pieces. Things like adding ballast and fixing trees are things you won't notice but the addition of signals really makes an impact to the overall look. Three were SSM kits and the others were Glenderg's own, they are just too fiddly for me to make a job of them. Quote
Riversuir226 Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Sweet job Kieran, brings the layout to a whole new level Quote
floorster Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Superb layout. Would love to see your trackplan. Quote
David Holman Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Love the signals! Do they work? If not, try getting hold of the latest Model Railway Journal, where Derek Munday has some interesting ideas on such things using servos Quote
Kirley Posted April 22, 2014 Author Posted April 22, 2014 Thanks David for the tip, I'll have a look. However these signals are so fine and fragile I don't think they would stand up to be motorised. Any working ones I've seen are chunkier. Quote
Kirley Posted April 25, 2014 Author Posted April 25, 2014 Tidy up continues at Kirley Junction. Added shelves for storage underneath the layout, touched up ballast and added some plaster bandage to bring together the top and bottom part of the layout. Lots and lots of small jobs still to do. Quote
jhb171achill Posted April 25, 2014 Posted April 25, 2014 Those little men in orange will be well capable of doing all those jobs! Quote
