RMweb Premium PaternosterRow Posted February 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Beautiful modelling. Less really is more sometimes and the stock is beyond brilliant. Had to go back to the start to find out that this is Code 75 - felt sure it was an EM or P4 when I first saw the pictures - really impressive stuff.

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted February 21, 2018 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted February 21, 2018 Thank you Mike for your very kind words. The Peco track really repays taking time to paint and ballast it correctly. In fact, all the componants are off the shelf which are then worked on to varying degrees.

Thanks, I realise that, me old chumley, but I just thought you ought to know that I don't like the actual Boscastle.

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted March 10, 2018 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 10, 2018 Morning all. Not much to report but I am hoping for a flurry of activity on the run up to Taunton. I am still a very inexperienced exhibitor (probably always will be !) so I start panicking way before anyone else. Here are a few more images of the ground frame which still needs finishing off. I then have some rolling stock to sort out with one item in particular to complete ahead of the show. Of this more in due course but suffice to say it will be perculier to the Lamb Regis branch.

RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 10, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 10, 2018 Taunton is ages, weeks away yet, loads of time to complete everything. And don't worry about exhibiting, folk are only going to stand and mutter, and point at things and shake their heads - just like a normal day in Cardiff.

A few jobs to do but looking forward to Taunton. Currents effirts centre around the ground frame to ensure it looks right. Rob. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted March 21, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 21, 2018 5 weeks, eh. Best get my track laid then..., maybe some scenery and a few technical bits as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted April 6, 2018 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 6, 2018 Morning. Further tweaking takes place ahead of Muttons forthcoming appearance at Taunton Rmweb show in a little over three weeks time. With a few items of rolling stock to be fettled, I am finishing (?) a few jobs on the scenery side of things. The ground frame awaits final bedding in with a couple of bits still to finalise. I am adding a bit of flora here and there and am experimenting with a bit of wriggly tin. Rob. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't drink? Evelyn Blunt: No, I tried it once and didn't like it. Vic Flange: Smoke? Evelyn Blunt: I tried it once and didn't like it. Vic Flange: Strange.

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted April 6, 2018 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 6, 2018 No need for relief at Mutton. Not what you would term as taxing thereabouts. Only time Porter/Signalman/ Shunter Ronnie Barker gets grumpy is if a train arrives when he is cutting a customers hair. Rob. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
