  1. Yes, that's correct. I tried to imagine what the architect who had designed Hellifield would have done at a smaller site. The width and height are as Hellifield, and I've made the length shorter.
  2. Widnes to Long Meg anhydrite empties pass northbound through Grisedale station in 1963. The anhydrite wagon kits are from etched brass kits made by RMWeb user MacGeordie, the 8F is a Hornby model that is to have a Brassmasters detailing kit applied, and then be suitably weathered. I just have to finish the station building and scratchbuild a canopy to finish the layout.
  3. Lovely work there Clem. I've also very nearly finished a Connoisseur Models 4mm BR Brake Van that I purchased nearly two decades ago. It all went together very well, and I had to exercise extreme care not to put too much solder on the iron tip when soldering on the strapping and other fine detail. There was an interesting article on building the kit by Steve Banks in BRM February 2002, and I also fashioned and put in plasticard inlays for the ends as he'd done. Regards Edmund
  4. If you try hard to ignore the Bachmann coupling on the front of the Fairburn tank, this is a picture from my layout "Grisedale"
  5. Hello Fred From the information I have, the only Portal coach that made it into blue/grey was the Brake Second Corridor, Diagram 2126. I understand that these Blue/Grey variants managed to survive until the early 70's
  6. Not my photographs, and these may have appeared elsewhere. Clapham, Bentham and Arkholme signalboxes situated between Settle Junction and Carnforth
  7. Not my photograph, and I'm not sure where I got it. Giggleswick Signalbox in the late 60's.
  8. Horton Box out of use 1990/91, not long before the fire that destroyed it.
  9. Settle Station signalbox 1990/91 out of use, and before preservation.
  10. River scene at Grisedale, using the "Gordon Gravett" method of creating ripples using Tamiya X22 lacquer.
  11. A London Road Models 50' turntable. It took at lot of adjustment but I got there in the end. Also a scratch built garage (well, modified some plans from an old Railway Modeller).
  12. Hello Tony Yes, they're all operational with servo motors and operated from an MSE leverframe with electrical switches at the back. Some examples below of the cantilever signal under construction, an Alan Gibson Junction Signal, and a reduced height Post (for sighting purposes) with the servo arrangement underneath. Edmund
