A bit more progress...layout will be open-ended.... Mocking up the lighting rig. Planning for the NCE panel Recessed input sockets (layout slides into an RUB)

I agree - every phone call or email is another shipment delayed in my book...I'm having issues with my log in but I don't think I need it sorted until batch one has shipped so I'll just wait. and yes I'm waiting for my 25 too... Chris H

I think there's a SIG.....

Post deleted!

I don't think you've captured the current mood on here Rob.....sorry... 😉

I'm at Monmouth with Cropper Street. https://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/event/y2024/26046-MonmouthRotaryClub_Exhibition The organisers have distributed this list to exhibitors which I thought I'd share....

Two numbers only D7599 plus 25 324 AFAIK

Slippery slope.....

It definitely helps - I've helped friend or relatives remotely when they've encountered problems on the rails.. Chris

Thanks Andy

I'm RMweb gold but subscribe to Traction (printed version) I already have access to digital BRM so do I just cancel my Traction sub? Chris

PMB is at Mike Walker's excellent Cheltenham Show in April...... https://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/event/y2024/26324-CheltenhamGreatWesternModellersGroup_Exhibition http://www.cheltmodrail.org.uk/ Chris H

Lockdown Fen is a late (non-7mm) substitute at Fred Lewis's NEWGOG on Saturday 13th April https://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/event/y2024/26448-Newgog_Exhibition Chris H

Surely a "basket case" of panniers.....?

Paint has been activated...weather has warmed up and humidity is down...

Board.... Backscene reinforcement.. Fiddle stick Mark 1 - this may be replaced...

It won't be rapid Andrew - I'm going for an urban look and enjoying doing a few buildings which I think will fit in the foot print. Chris

Thanks Rob - just doing a bit of planning and thinking! Chris

Cheers Marc - By a happy coincidence some time ago I acquired a brake van and shunter's wagon lettered for Canon's Marsh across the docks.... FWIW I'm at Monmouth Show on 11th with Cropper Street https://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/event/y2024/26046-MonmouthRotaryClub_Exhibition

1500 x 400mm plus 600 x 400mm for the Fiddleyard - although I've now added a 150mm leg on the FY so I can shunt comfortably around the Kadee magnet with a Class 40 and 3 wagons...

As one or two may have noticed from comments elsewhere on here I'm planning a new RUB layout - probably an Inglenook with an urban feel but unusually for me it will be pre-Nationalisation and will be a proper test bed for Sprat and Winkle couplings rather than my usual Kadees.... While doing a bit of research this photo of the Bristol Harbour Railway complete with its very own shunting puzzle popped up on a Facebook Group...Bristol Temple Meads is top left... https://collections.bristolmuseums.org.uk/collections/c945abc2-c0ee-35ac-85c2-3d5b59ef3fdb/?refid=1174 Chris H

My sound fitted Colas Class 56 has arrived from Rainbow Railways..(excellent packaging and delivery btw).....I'm almost ashamed to admit I have not been able to do a test run yet... Chris H

You're no fun any more....

I'm hoping for Monmouth on 11 February...... Chris

Likewise.
