  1. Here's two pictures of the three way point at the back of the layout. I took a day off work to build it, and thats exactly what it took!!!!!
  2. Point template stuck to the board and washed with brown stain. The reason for this is if the ballast does not cover all of the board, bright white paper does not show through.
  3. Turntable in but prior to the deck being converted to EM gauge. The 37 is a Cardiff Canton 'split box' machine, strangely it has yet to be converted to EM and as such has not yet made it on to the layout for exhibitions.
  4. Boards in their 'room' On the wall behind is a Full size plan, the room is also full of reference shots, including overhead 'google' shots.
  5. Given a little time over Christmas, I've been digging out further pictures of the construction of DitD; This 08 was pretty much the first loco for the layout. It has been re-wheeled with ultrascale wheels, the best in my opinion if you don't mind the wait. It is stood on a 'test point' built out of C&L components.
  6. thanks for the links. plenty of weathering potential there. was the 'steam' a special working or were they still in use then?
  7. Look forward to seeing you and 'WE' at Melksham As Chris mentioned we will be there with 'TG'
  8. Ullypug, Thanks for your advice on this. 'WE' is a great layout too. never seen it in the flesh tho....
  9. Yes it was the undergubbins I was bothered about. Sounds like a plan.
  10. They look like Pal-Vans to me. I'll look into if Parkside do them. Also this period was 'pre-clay hoods' i.e. flat tarpaulins. Need to also find a good five plank wagon for these - not the Bachmann one!
  11. Now whats that song again? 'Whats that com'ng over the hill, is it a monster, is it a monster?'
  12. Ah yes I remember that day and that picture well. It was just before that freek accident....
  13. Niether were that reliable so perhaps the sound of silience is more apt
  14. Not sure what we will do about sound for these or the D600s?
  15. You've got me there Lets wait for the Dapol one, at least......
  16. Ive found a few shots of DitD under construction. Nothing ground breaking but hope they are of interest.......
