yep shes on display

 

Cool, was in Hawkins Street yesterday and they had one on display too, seems that there are a couple 112s doing the rounds. I think we're all counting down the days!

Looking good.

 

Totally off topic but what track is used in that scene and what fishplates?

 

Good spot Dave, P4 Track Co, C&L Finescale, Brassmaster are some of the manufacturers that produce fishplates in 4mm and they look great in Gareths photos.

From what I have seen so far of the models 112 is definitely stealing the show, and looks to my eye to be the one to beat. Great photos Gareth cheers.

Thanks, the model really is a beauty, she begged me to weather her but Sir Patrick of Murphy would have killed me so I had to firmly resist the temptation.

 

Rich is spot on the fishplates are p4 com used on Peco code 75, pics are taken on a Canon 400Digital SLR, other than adding the text marker and reducing the file size for the web upload the photos are as taken and have no manipulation.

 

The pics are taken on a small super detailed show layout I am building for the Cultra show called Abingdon Drive. It represents the Belfast to Dublin mainline just off the Donegal Road. If time allows I might stick some progress pics in the layout sub forum.

Next time set the depth of field higher, put it into AV mode and go as high as you can - eg F22. You will need a tripod but it will be worth it

Yep, she still carries them today

 

Spot on Gareth. If memory serves me correctly they once belonged to a 141 in the 151-9 numbered locos. The NIR livery really suits these locos and the model looks amazing. I can't wait to add one to the fleet. I think an etched nameplate will really take them to another level.

 

Rich,
