  1. Hi Steve, Thank you that's helpful, I am planning a layout along the WCML in Cumbria I am looking at 1986 or 1987. you don't know if they did something similar to the Transpennine Express Manchester to Glasgow in the 80's Thankyou
  2. Hi, Sorry if this is in the wrong place. Struggling in my google searches, I was wondering if anyone has any time tables or routes maps or knows of any websites where I might find details for local trains in the North West that would travel through Cumbria please. I am looking at if there were any local services like Preston to Carlisle, Preston to Glasgow. Thank you
  3. Great images Dave, This is my favourite image, the track looks like it follows the terrain of the countryside.
  4. Thank you very much that is helpful, I do like 50017 at Dawlish the mix of liveries.
  5. Hiya could anyone help please, I have had no luck with internet searches . I am looking a basing my layout in Cumbria on the WCML from about 1985-1994ish. I have found some photos of NSE livery class 47 and a class 86 stabled at Carlisle, did any Scotrail Livery trains make it that far south. Thanks
  6. Sounds good I wonder if Heljan will up grade the lights from the grain of wheat/rice bulbs to LED'S. (all the information say's is working illuminated directional head/marker/tail lights). I guess afterwards they will start to make runs that are not limited editions that we will be able to pick up from our favourite retailers slightly cheaper. Shame they wouldnt mix the locos up so you could purchase a construction livery and dutch livery Regards Ant
  7. Stunning pictures 47701 at the platform and going through the tunnel are awesome Ant

    EBay madness

    OR bid on their own item to raise the bid to make more money. I have had it done to me where I have been out bidded and lost the auction and with in 15-30 minutes had a second chance offer. I have just declinded and let them relist it
  9. Looking good I like the Colliery tower did it take long to build? Do you have a track plan? Ant

  13. Hiya Jamie Thank you The layout is 8ft by 2 ft The upper level station area is a single road platform with a 3 track fiddle yard The lower level has a fiddle yard that switches back under the station area I have a class 31,47 and 50 that are sound chipped and 2 37's I would like to get my class 150 sound chipped at some point. I have 2 DDC controllers for the layout I use a Bachmann E-Z Command controller for the upper level and the Bachmann E-Z Command Dynamis for the lower level. Regards Anthony
