What class of loco is that?
-
Sunday outing on the move...
-
Agree, just started work on the top feed removal for my 8750 version the 6th one? Slow and steady is the way.
-
Found another one of the Panniers. Thought you might like it! Changed it to Monochrome but wasn't sure so here it is for your thoughts.
-
An eye level view of all those Panniers....
-
Just a train. Passing along the line. With lamp missing? Perhaps that's why it has stopped..... To add one?
-
Thanks Point levers mainly homemade with the levers being brass and I can’t recall where I got them from!!!!Sorry.
-
Please refer to last picture with door back leaning against the wall If I hung that door and unloaded the crate what on earth would you all chat about??
-
Glued and ballasted in place. I have found it will take quite a few weeks to fully dry giving me the finished colour which I can then match with surrounding areas And all back in place. Now I can park a couple of Panniers, or a tender loco and still leave space….and the pipe from the water tank reaches this siding as well????
-
Extend the siding so a piece of track was found So the old piece removed and excavation works commenced, track cut to size and…. and glueing in place Note. Engine shed, figures, telegraph poles removed as I was leaning over the layout to work on it…..help saves unnecessary damage!
-
The Squadron Leader has been tasked by me to take aerial pictures of the layout so I can start updating the plan. Well one of them was the area to the side of the engine shed and I looked at it and thought why on earth did I do the siding that angle and length???? No idea…… So a plan was hatched……..

A view across the farm to a waiting train...
-
Thanks UD transfers either came with the Parkside kit or brought separately from Fox Transfers
-
Now, after yesterdays Pannier excitement lets quieten things down with a tranquil view of some buildings. Mavis still chatting to Aunt Edna, me still leaning on a fence in deep conversation with an engine driver and Stan Dare eyeing up his next painting. This view captures the different levels I was after and through a gap in the trees you can see a flat bed wagon in the head shunt at track level.....

Thanks. Its difficult to set up, out of reach of my tripod so I have to hold the camera in one hand, balance it on the back scene to stop the shakes whilst in my other hand operate the it with the remote facility on the iPhone. What is does, with the new corner board with Rose Cottage on gave me nearly 9ft of scenery hence the feeling of depth. I suppose if I removed the shop and offices I could stand the camera on my mini tripod.....that would open up a lot of different angles. Hmmmm?
-
Agree and I have another one about to enter the workshop……
-
The only reason they are all there as they have been waiting for the auto train to clear the line…. LM operates in a multiverse??? Its a Marvel.! And the vicar, well once he puts his socks on he can wear his saddles…
-
And now from one of the bedroom windows of the cottages... A view not often seen as I am balancing over the layout, with the camera pressed against the backscene for stability... One false move....
-
You lucky people... By a pure fluke of the timetable we have ended up with all the Panniers in the yard at LM at the same time! What luck and coincidence? We have 7768 - on shed 2776 - at coal staithes 7750 - water siding 8752 - siding and about to set off 8701 - auto train
-
Peaceful start to the day.....
-
Past the farm the goods do chug....
-
With the crew ordered and awaiting dispatch 2776 has moved to the coal staithe. She will sit there until here crew arrives and finished with the wardrobe department where they will be added to the cab. A loco at rest And probably my favourite angle Fore an old stager she has scrubbed up well and makes a nice addition to the LM motive fleet.
