Panniers never looked better! Nice one mate!

A truly lovely bit of modelling.
And don’t worry about your adding of weathering;
given how heavily industrialised Glasgow was in that era, there would almost certainly be evidence of weathering in a short time.

This one will be back in the room shortly, I'm currently rattling through existing models, upgrading buffers etc; getting the quick, easy jobs in the bag first and hopefully then freeing more time up to concentrate on the more involved projects. :-)

There is no plan as such, Rich. That can come later; right now I'm getting back to just having fun with the hobby! :-)

If the intention was portraying a chilly winter's afternoon in 1965 it has succeeded admirably. A really nice vignette.
-
Truly lovely work, Dave. Although the scene is incomplete, all the elements combine beautifully.

A big fan of the big 2-6-4Ts myself. A pair each of Standards and Fairburns plus a Stanier which although not ScR residents in my period of interest, did operate out of Carlisle Canal and Tebay and therefore align with other fields of interest.

Pretty much the way I remember it!
-
A few of these via the same provenance to do myself. Who's your source for the AK stuff?

What a good move, Mikkel. The sense of space and depth is excellent and the effect is that of the natural spaciousness of your average railway yard.
Excellent stuff. :-)
-
Nice effects on the bottom one, Baz. What technique did you use?
Dave.

Looks fairly competent to me, Dave.
In truth it would get a bit grotty trundling along under Argyle St anyway even back in Caley days so you might have a wee bit of a get out of jail card there! ;-)

Liking the ashplant. Looks much like the set up at Kingmoor and Upperby.

I personally would like to 'do' CSB, but the sad fact is that not being a 'maths' person, I'm on a hiding to nothing.
I know people who have a great success of CSB, but they were both engineers.

That truly is wonderful.I have a 52F kit in 4mm for one of these. I'm very tempted now to do it as an NB loco as there are precious few photos of the class round Glasgow in BR days.
Praise indeed from a Caley man! ;-)
-
Thanks Ray, that's a good help. :-)

Thanks for the information. Did you source your Class 150 coupler bar from Bachmann themselves? I'm guessing this may work for Class 105 too.
Davy.

Cheers. Glad you like it. Now my garden’s all rebuilt I might be getting back into this sort of thing shortly.
