What's the origin of the buffer stop on the right, please, old chap?

[Tim Dubya]

It is statistically impossible for any loading gauge to cause offence.

 

The one at Norton is well hard, it's been refurbed and still at the goods yard frote.  I remember when it was covered in shite almost to the top.

Ah yes, very good.

Evening all.

 

The loading gauge is coming together. Much cobbling up going on involving a bit of bull head rail, brass wire and angle and few Ratio bits and bobs.

 

Very loosly based on the one at Lamb Regis.

Very neat modelling, Rob; much better than my piggy little fingers can do!

[NHY 581]

Thanks Jonners.

 

 

Here is a chopped image of the original by way of comparision.

The current squeeze has just made me 'like' one of your photos, Rob; she is impressed!

[The Blue Streak]

We've all seen some of your stuff on RMW Phil.

It's very good.

 

So don't try and pull the plumage over our eyes

Morning all.

 

A cruel close up of the loading gauge taken under direct light. In reality it is more muted in colour.

 

That said, I am okay with it and it should soon be gracing Mutton.

The snow is very effective.

Is that another cake (maybe even a Christmas cake) it's standing in?

 

Anyways, another fablos creation sir.

 

Top hole!

I prefer your loading gauge to a crate of mince pies.

Most kind CK.

 

I am partial to a mince pie as produced by the Memsahib NHY. She has been advised that they should conform with the limitations imposed by said gauge.

 

 

I may attempt to install the LG in due course. Without fail, in a most expeditious manner.

LG Loosley plonked in situ.

 

 

Bit wonky and I have a plan for the ground cover but I hope you get the drift...

[Mallard60022]

Loosely Plonked.....................ummmmm, sounds like a small layout to me       

[NHY 581]

A further view of the loading gauge and some views of a couple of additional lamps dotted about.

 

 

Not sure if this is where they will end up..
