Ripper Street


Recommended Posts

I thought I would re post this -Footage of the former DEMU TVAG Exhibition layout with mainly EMU’s running in and out of the station, however as with Broad Street passengers are few and far between

 

This video was produced from photos taken at Ripper Streets1st Exhibition at DEMU Showcase 2007 a little bit of fun with some appropriate music.

The music is 'Wind Words' from Stomu Yamashta's 1973 album 'Freedom is Frightening' - sadly not available on CD. The violinist is Stomu's wife IIRC.

Off topic for a mo!- Another Stomu Yamashta fan? This music also featured in the film "The Man Who Fell To Earth" starring David Bowie. IMO his best albums were the Go albums Go, Go Live From Paris and Go Too

I am aware that there are plans a foot to build Ripper Street 2 by some of the guys who were involved with the original project for a bigger and better Ripper St in P4 which would be great to see.

Will it feature North London Railway architecture?

Not exactly a fan, but yes the Go albums are also good. I bought FIF after seeing them live at the University Students Union in Liverpool.

Searching through my vast repository of photos I came across some old Ripper Street photos. These were not the best however I have done a little Photoshopping on them to remove background light and reflections without spoiling the overall theme of the layout.

Yes an excellent layout with good use of Peco track and third rail. The overall look of it is very convincing and just goes to show that you don't need hand laid track to produce something that is very realistic. I still have my copy of Railway Modeller with this layout in it. The EMU's are good too.

 

Cheers

Simon
