HIGH TREES JUNCTION - MORE BR BLUE
A few more pictures of the junction in action. My track laying leaves much to be desired in some of the shots. This all looked perfect when first laid, but there are a few wobbles here and there that are more apparent in the close up shots. It all works and I've had no running problems and yet it shows just how much attention must be paid to laying perfect, level track during the construction of long line layouts.
A Hornby Class 20 combo hauls a short engineering train through the junction and down the branch.
A Lima Class 101 passes on the other line. This little loco is a superb runner for an old model and it has to represent Lima's finest hour with its flush glazed windows. The motor is original so the model hadn't been used much before I picked it up cheap on eBay. With a bit of weathering and detailing I think it has come up quite well. One of my favorites anyway.
The superb Bachmann Class 25 hauling a short Freightliner. The factory weathering really makes this loco for me.
A Lima HST set. It's a real pleasure to see this run around and around now. I gave it a new motor replacement during detailing and it goes like a rocket. It seems ironic that these older models have no problem running through Code 75 track and points. However, I did have to take down the flanges on the 'Pizza Cutter' wheels first.
