  2. These were probably a bit late for your time period taken about 2006
  3. https://www.cumbriacrack.com/2018/03/08/class-68-coming-cumbria-thanks-northern-drs/ class 68s coming to the coast trains from Monday well one train at least
  4. Nope its _ between http://www.ebay.com/usr/cour_shau Looking at some of his Feedback it looks like he's done more than us....
  5. I have had the same issue with this same seller got a Paypal chargeback alert yesterday. I have provided Paypal with the Proof of postage / Proof of signed for and Proof of possitive feedback. Hopefully I should be covered by Paypal seller protection by providing this but until then I am left with a negative balance so cannot buy anything with Paypal until that cleared, so it's wait and see what Paypal come back with but I'm not holding my breath....
  6. Not much work on the boards over the last week as I've been concentrating on putting the trains together and swapping a TTS sound chip into a ViTrains class 37 and sorting the lights out so they come on in the direction of Travel. Also been adding some weight to a TTS Class 40 to hopefully stop it bouncing around so much. So here are some images of my last train of 3 this one covering the Green Diesel period of the early 60's the others covering 80's and 90's. The wagons come from Dave Shakespears "Tetley Mills" collection that I purchased last year in the hope that they fit in with the modular style and others can enjoy running their locos with Daves wagons. The Class 40 is the Hornby TTS version and has had the stripe added at below the cant rail, frost grills added, weathered etc... I left it as D232 but added nameplates. On the still to do list are Adding some more scenic bits along the walls to hide the joins. Make a Whistle board. Gather all bits together that I have agreed to bring. Make some kind of stock boxes. Cheers Steve
  7. In the last light of a warm Summer evening 47491 creaks rounds the curve on its way with a train of SPA wagons bound for Tees Yard. Steve
  8. Just plodding on with some scenery across both boards and some finer detail, a few more trees, some signage around the path on Border Curve and a few more gorse bushes added to both boards. Signage added to the path that crosses the line. 47491 rounds Border Curve. An overall shot of how things are progressing on the curve. There are some sheep appeared on the other side of the board and work started on adding bits of scenery to that side also. There are probably 4 different colours of "bush", 3 different ballasts an various styles of grass "tufts" to add variety to the colour. The Heljan class 47 with 6 x SPA Coil wagons will form one of the trains I'm bringing to the meet. The other 2 still been looked at. I'm looking at a train from each of 3 different periods. Steve
  9. There's some more pics over on the Badger's Vale thread along with the inspiration behind the scenery. http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/97884-britmod-oo-modular-2015-challenge-3ft-straight-badgers-vale-update-255/?p=1900473 But here's some specifically for the curved board I do a lot of checking via the mobile phone camera to see what the various angles look like. I also found a nice app that blurs the background which helps remove some distractions. 40012 rounds border Curve with some SPA wagons. I have yet to start on this side of the board adding bushes etc.. 09024 negotiates the curve in the morning sunshine. Another couple of views of 40012 renumbered courtesy of Railtec transfers. Cheers Steve

  13. While doing the 37's on the coast I spotted that 6C53 06:30 Crewe to Sellafield was running early and was following 2C41 08:45 Barrow - Carlisle up the coast so bailed off 37409 at Sellafield to grab some shots. 20309+20305 skirt round the coast. 23/05/2015 20309+20305 arrive while 20308 stabled in the siding. Having pulled into the station with their one flask in tow, They then power out pushing the flask. 37606 + 20308 on the left. Reversing up the line into the Sellafield complex. Cheers Steve
