Dropped you a message RE cranes Jonathan

Kozel Cement is actually my (Dave Paylor) layout …the booking was sent in by Mark Pearson.

Well, after a break from the Dutch layout (name still not decided) me and Paul, finally started doing a bit more today, the test bit of faller road was sanded back (i did it a bit thick) Paul then laid a stretch of new road, using plaster of paris which was coloured grey, I fitted the rest of the magnets for the level crossing, we also started getting some ballast down. Quite a bit of progress for one night. all the best Dave

we also have trade support from…. TTC Diecast Anoraks Anonymous. Rail Stuff. NMRS Club sales. Mech Models.

Demonstrations…. Rob Law 3D printing. Tony Wrights Loco Clinic.

Layouts Attending….. Norman Colliery - British/Industrial 0 gauge. Sheet stores - British 00 gauge. Chalk Pit - Industrial 0 gauge. Ilkeston Town - British 00 gauge. Welby Lane - British 00 gauge. Black Diamonds - American N gauge. Industrivej - Danish H0 gauge. A taste of Albeř - Czech TTe gauge.

The extension is looking good! Really looking forward to giving my stock a run on it :)

A little something I’ve been working on as a gap filler…..quite pleased so far!

Had an enjoyable running session tonight with Drabford, even managed some snaps!

I’ve also been doing a bit of work on my old Riverossi 1100, I’ve grafted some old Lima 1700 noses onto it, next job is to neaten them up and also to file more of an angle onto it, hopefully matching it to the Roco 1100.

Ok so a bit more progress over last few weeks, track and points wired, cobalts fitted and a control panel built, to item I’ve been doing a bit I’d scenery so thought I’d share some of the latest pics. I didn’t take any NS coaches with me so I had to press some SNCB coaches I just acquired into my photos

Found a TT example with rot! Tillig 02562 CD Class 781, the ends of the chassis have crumbled and crack is in the main casting, though online I have seen more severe failures.

Hiya, do you know if Martin Models have any sort of website?

Hiya we had a few shows to attend so had some layout fettling to do, hopefully will be some updates after next Tuesday

I rescued this GBs? Van from box of scrap parts, I added some new axle box assemblies from my piko bits I got from the last works open day, I also added a some pallets with bags on, which I picked up from Anoraks Annoymous, it’s turned out pretty good for a scrapper I think
