Pre Grouping layouts
LNWR18901910 replied to Graham_Muz's topic in Pre-Grouping - Modelling & Prototype
I purchased a Dapol N Gauge M7 along with winning three Graham Farish 4-Wheel Coaches to make a mini push-pull suburban rake based on the one in Kenilworth. Yes, it is the West Midlands Railway. -
First cut-and-shut attempt
LNWR18901910 replied to TangoOscarMike's topic in Modifying & Detailing RTR stock
I say! Interesting coaches! I hope to make my own version someday soon. -
And now for something completely different as well as relevant to my modellign era and such: This is supposed to be an LNWR 4-4-0 which is mostly a George the Fifth locomotive made from asecond-hand Bachmann Edward model. And yes, it does run well in both directions and goes nicely with Toby's Museum Coaches which I feel strongly resemble LNWR coaching stock.

Corbs' Cobbling - Is it electric?
LNWR18901910 replied to Corbs's topic in Modifying & Detailing RTR stock
I wonder how they'll turn out. James as the LBSCR K Class or the G&SWR Drummond 403 'Austrian Goods' Class would be something. -
Anyone familiar with Budget Model Railways on YouTube and Instagram? They have done some interesting diesel conversions: My favourites so far are the Mini Class 17 and shortened Class 35.

Good luck to nayone who can attempt this in model-form!

Underground ernie electric train chassis
LNWR18901910 replied to pewky's topic in Motors & Drive Systems
Is it possible to remove the chassis from the body? If I was doing something similar, I'd try and make a freelance DMU or prototype HST. -
We all know that the LBSCR H1 and H2 Atlantics (well, mostly the H2) are the same as the Ivatt Large Boiler C1 from the GNR, but what if the Midland Railway had an Atlantic of its own?

So, here's work on the SECR tank engine so far: This is what it started out as (being a rebrand of the old 0-4-0 Thomas model). At the time of writing this post, the coal bunker was modified and the loco was given a smooth file-down on the milliput areas. The SECR H Class and R1 Class tank engines did serve as inspirational influences on me. There were a couple of holes made in both sides as for when the time comes to cut off the extended side-tanks and make new boiler-sides and splasher tops. And as another finishing time, it will have hand-rails added into the boiler and smokebox yet they will be simply made using fine styrene rods and added on as if they were moulded on for that Triang-Hornby feel to them.

The Kelsby Light Railway; or, Red's Hopeful Layout

Interesting 4-4-0! Did you make it yourself? -
SR Brighton Steam, 3D Printed in OO
LNWR18901910 replied to BrightonBoi's topic in 3D Printing, Laser Cutting, CAD & CNC
Nice Mogul! Is there a chance of making one? I hope to do so myself. Also, what would I need to make it? -
I've been on a bit of a Pugbasher lately as well as focusing on my Postmodern Pre-Grouping project. Seeing as I discovered a way to create SECR coaches using Hornby's old Four Wheel Coaches, I thought about adding an SECR-liveried Hornby 0-4-0 made using one of their modern ones: So, here are some planning stages as I was inspired by the SECR H, R1 and P Classes to create a freelance SECR tank engine to compliment the coaches I made. I may be an LNWR and Midland fan, but I do have the soft spot for the SECR, LSWR, LB&SCR, NER, S&DJR and the GWR particularly the Dean and Churchward stuff. Anyone like the idea?
