That looks SO good. However, I'm just amazed at the 'difference' in gauge; just look at that extra width on the Templot P4 print.

Alos, I had no idea this loco was even available yet - DOH!

Makes the shed come to life, even in this stage of construction. I can smell the sulphurous wiff even now!

36E (or should I say 82E?)

Looks like it just belongs there, Robin! I suspect that not a few will be interested to see how the conversion to P4 eventually goes....

Mallard, the gauge is slightly exaggerated in the pics. The current templot plan isn't quite on the correct allignment upon entering the shed and will be replaced in due course, as a result the 7f is placed off the track plan but on a more appropriate position in relation to the shed walls, hence the apparently huge difference in track gauge.

 

Robin has done an excellent job on the colouration of the shed walls and when they come under close scruitiney, such as in these photos, the shed really does ouse with atmosphere

 

Thanks for sharing the pics Rob!

 

 

Lovely lovely lovely!! Wonderful modelling this, the laser cut materials from York Model Makers look superb and have been coloured very accurately - as Kempemfelt says - oooozing atmosphere. The 7F isn't too shabby either - another of my favourites, I always fancied one of these... one day one day (add it to the list!)
