RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Looks like this has to be done in sections. (Yawn). Its a quiet Sunday morning on the Yorkshire layout. The mods from heartbeat are getting a few down in the Birch Hall Inn for lunch and the goat always comes home before dark. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Moving on to the non-fictitious end of the layout we find a 4MT departing with the Mk1 stock. The second pic is something I have tried to copy from a real life image. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Oh hi Jaz, you're up with the larks? It's me who's a sad old git BTW for spending 20 minutes setting up that daft class four pic! It doesn't look anything like the real picture. D5061 on the bridge........

RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 I can hardly wait to get on with the layout renovation as the repainted water tower looks great! Somehow got lucky with the light and camera settings here. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hi Shaun, wow these are worth waiting for, I love the shots through the arches and the low level street angles. looks like a cracking layout and has given me some ideas of what I will need to do in the small Town / Village when I start my Last Great Project. All the best, Andy P.S. No apologies for ALL the like ticks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebs Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 superb stuff indeed. Thanks for the pictures. I've got to say, I love seeing trains go over that viaduct Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Well spotted Markus! Your prize is to choose what you would like to see a pic of. Some close up or favorite part of the layout maybe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yes Jason me too. It was fun to create, putting the buildings in various configurations until I was happy. The original Metcalfe viaduct got binned as it just wouldn't fit. Next up will be a mill towne like your Bacup. I have been building factories, warehouses and mills like a mad man for about 4 years and in the spring will hopefully be ready to do the same as the village but on a much bigger scale... I'm thinking Keighley Halifax with more than one railway company. Regards Shaun 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 28, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Reply quoting post isn't working either now. ??????? What's up with that. Couldn't add the pics to my posts so posted them separately to include captions!!! Beginning to think it's RMweb and not my computer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Jason T Posted November 28, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Keighley had more than one railway company; not only did the Midland build and operate the main line and Oxenhope branch, but the GN operated a line from Bradford & Halifax to Keighley, which met the KWVR at Ingrow. There are still a lot of old mill buildings around the vicinity of Keighley to Ingrow, as well as the river, terraced houses, cobbled streets and some fantastic bridges and the like. It would be no hardship for me to potter down there and get you a load of photos if you want. How about this for character galore? That is the KWVR crossing the road https://www.google.co.uk/maps/preview#!data=!1m8!1m3!1d3!2d-1.9046!3d53.864108!2m2!1f173.86!2f82.62!4f75!2m7!1e1!2m2!1sMqhLaYfC3nK6gI5PekyDxQ!2e0!5m2!1sMqhLaYfC3nK6gI5PekyDxQ!2e0&fid=5 Looking the other way https://www.google.co.uk/maps/preview#!data=!1m8!1m3!1d3!2d-1.9046!3d53.864108!2m2!1f73.51!2f100.37!4f75!2m7!1e1!2m2!1sMqhLaYfC3nK6gI5PekyDxQ!2e0!5m2!1sMqhLaYfC3nK6gI5PekyDxQ!2e0&fid=5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Sasquatch and Mrs Sasquatch Wonderful pictures, and being a person who has spent days (if not weeks!) rather than hours researching this station and the surrounding areas checking how the land falls I see so many of those details here, the walls, various fencing, the tall conifer near the water tower, the cattle grid, the rail bridge over the water., and so much more. The gradients of the ground and the colouring have all been clearly well researched, the bench up on the road side (as on google) nothing has been overlooked. People who use resin made buildings are often not considered modellers, but I think your attention to detail is just wonderful. I enjoyed the lambrettas / vespas surely you need a couple of lads, and one to look like you. Goathland is well thought out nicely planned, you made a nice spot for the Birch Inn, adding some of the details from it's home and made it believable. I just can't express how well I think you have done, so many small details and clearly based on the real thing. The greenery is believable. And considering that you have to fit this all into a layout size. Superlative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgraham Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Stunning, beautiful and amazing as always. Someday I hope to see it in person. Perhaps I'll time a visit my daughter in Eugene to coincide with when you show it again. Cheers & Happy Thanksgiving 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freebs Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Jason, that little cameo is just begging to be modelled It's just such a shame my layout is "flat earth"... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Jason T Posted November 28, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yep, there is so much character in that couple of views. It's wanting to capture scenes like that which mean I will always use risers for the trackbed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
