RMweb Gold Joseph_Pestell Posted May 2, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 2, 2016 Could you tell me more about the backscene please, from what I can see in the shots that looks very nice also. Mike I'm confused. There does not seem to be a backscene in any of those photos. Except one photo under the bridge where I think the view beyond is photoshopped.

North Eastern Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Absolutely stunning, this is going to be one superb layout when it's completed. Can't wait to see a rake of MGR's behind a Class 56 or a grotty 40 or 46 on a long parcels train. Just off to Smiff's to get my copy of BRM Regards Chris Edited May 2, 2016 by North Eastern Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatonLodge40 Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'm confused. There does not seem to be a backscene in any of those photos. Except one photo under the bridge where I think the view beyond is photoshopped. You are right Joseph there isn't a backscene as yet. I replied to Mike on the other thread on Heaton Lodge by mistake. Paul Bambrick of Bambrick studios is doing a 3D type backscene that will be higher than most. I want to create a total illusion and therefore hide the operators completely. I'm lucky in that the surrounding landscape that Paul will be replicating has not changed since the 1980's one iota. All the viewing public will hear too (between the sounds of thunderous heavy freight passing by) is the sound of birds singing. Again I remember that vividly from the time. I'm working on a few more surprises that will hopefully raise a few eyebrows. Once again though the positive comments are very welcome. Thanks.

Michael Delamar Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Shot from the cab, we had a flashing double yellow. I took some more if useful. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilloverland Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 As a former 'booking lad' at Healey mills 'box I'm really looking forward to seeing this in the flesh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatonLodge40 Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 Thanks for that picture of the gantry Michael. The 2 aspect signal head is pretty new being installed only in the last few years. The old 4 aspect one which was present on the far right of the gantry disappeared in the mid 1980's, though the other 4 aspect head which preceded the existing 2 aspect lasted much longer. Take it you're on the TP run? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Crepello Posted December 5, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 5, 2017 I'm surprised by the lack of recent info on here. Is it still on for Warley 2018? Don't want to wish my time away but I can't wait to see it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want to wish my time away but I can't wait to see it! There's a second thread (started by Allan Downes). Might be handy if they were merged. Layout owner has just rented an enormous space to accommodate the layout. Edited December 5, 2017 by Joseph_Pestell 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium richierich Posted December 5, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 5, 2017 Fantastic layout. An interesting place model having being involved on the 1:1 scale railway looking at modernisation and electrification of the line in a past life so to speak. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachmann Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 (edited) It is so good and those bridge shots reminds me me old haunt at Chinley. Then I read it was in Yorkshire (thikko me didn't know where Heaton Lodge was!) This is truly creating the real railway in miniature.

47606odin Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 All I can say is wow The scale of that layout is mind blowing. Such a shame being in Australia I’ll never get to see it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
