Kelvinbank, a Caledonian Railway project.

Wow. How long was that passenger train standing in the station?

 

Very nice photos.

Wonderful scenes, Dave. I'm not very knowledgeable on the CR but it all looks very Caledonian to me.

 

I agree it's important to play trains and take overall photos like this sometimes, to keep the motivation up. Fitting couplings seems so unrewarding - right until you are able to actually do some proper shunting. 

 

I see your wagons actually have proper loads. There's a lot of work in that too, but your photos here show what a difference it makes. I really must get down to adding some loads to my own wagons.

Heh, a good point Regularity. My excuse is that having just worked west through the low level lines the tanks are full of hot water and will need emptied and refilled. Partick Central had 2 water cranes on the platform , one east and one west. 

As to the hot water, dumped straight into the Kelvin I suspect. 

 

Cheers Mikkel. The loads are on a planked styrene base so they can be swapped about. An accumulation of bits over the years.

Truly lovely work, Dave. Although the scene is incomplete, all the elements combine beautifully.
