Some very nice work going on here

Morning guys. Today we have one of Heljans wonderful big Peaks. Weathered, numbered as 014, and Domino blinds fitted. Sound already fitted by customer.

**Wanted** O gauge diesel loco buffers. Afternoon guys. I am after some of the attached, ex NMRS range. Oleo oval buffers. Anyone got any surplus they wish to part with?

A couple of Sunday morning shots of locos at rest on the depot. 26032, and 31322.

A couple of 'behind the scenes' shots of Heaton Lodge Junction, gives a hint of the truly epic scale of systems and logistics of this monster layout.

Hi Peter....I''l try to remember on to take some more!

Morning guys. A relative rarity....one of my personal locos! This has taken me 3 years to complete simply because of the constant heavy workload of the business. Starting life as an unrefurbished green Heljan 0 gauge class 26, I introduce refurbished Railfreight 26032. Cabside tablet recesses filled, underframe air compressor tanks added, a full repaint, and fairly heavy/tatty weathering. This loco was in quite a state in it's later years, I will revisit the detail weathering at some point in the next 3 years and possibly add a bit more

Monday morning, back to it!

Morning chaps. A few shots of the new Heljan 0 gauge 47 on my layout. This was purchased from Mr Seven Mill last year. I have just rewired for DCC, and will be featuring further improvements in the coming months.

I'm not 100%, but I can't help thinking that this PH Designs class 37 roof fan and grille is slightly overscale

It's another hot sunny day, so thought I would get my chopper out Heljan 0 gauge, weathered and Legoman sound fitted.

Started a batch of weathering today, among others including this Heljan class 20.

Been a while since I have installed sound in a big Heljan Deltic. ESU XL V5 chip, with Legoman sound, and a pair of EM3 speakers. Sounds bloody marvellous

2 questions. I'm confused why a 21 pin chip has been used for an 0 gauge class 20 installation that requires hard wiring, and how is it Heljans fault that Zimo only offer logic level outputs?
