grahame Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 In one of your photos above there is a dozer on the back of a low lowder. Can you tell me who makes the dozer please? Carl If you are unable to source a Tomytec one then I'd suggest checking out the GHQ version: http://www.ghqmodels.com/store/53001.html (apologies for the off topic reply) G.

Rammstein2609 Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Hi all Another successful show was attended this weekend in Falkirk where the layout was frantically worked on the weeks before to bring it up to a better standard. Some of the rolling stock was still tacky on Saturday afternoon from the weathering sessions the day before! I'm happy to say the layout has now been professionally photographed for a magazine article which I'm looking forward to seeing. In the meantime, here are a few quick photos taken at the falkirk show today: The last two shots are some of my favourite as the original idea with the embankment and trees was to allow viewers to look through the tree which are at a good height and be able to watch the tops of the trains move by. There is still plenty to do on the layout but an impending house move will put this on hold for several months. I'll keep this topic updated with any progress when it happens.

Rammstein2609 Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) Hi All Nothing much has happened on the layout since the last posts due to a house move and busy period at work but I'm pleased to say it will be appearing in Hornby Magazine for the May edition which is due out on the 12th of April. A quick snap of the preview below: Thanks Martin Edited March 26, 2018 by Rammstein2609 7 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are a few of the excellent photos taken by Nigel Burkin for the article including a few which never made the magazine. I post these here with Nigel's permission.

RMweb Premium Alex TM Posted August 12, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hi Martin, Good to meet, and chat about the layout at Ayr yesterday. Have to agree with the other contributors here in that it looks so much better in the flesh. Glad to see that you haven't mimicked the pollution of the original! Regards, Alex.

Rammstein2609 Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 Hi All Just a quick note to say Ketton Cement will make its final appearance at the FMRC show in Barrow in Furness on the 12th & 13th October. A change in personal circumstances means the layout will unfortunately be broken up after the show and parts used on another layout in the future. Building and exhibiting this layout has been a great learning experience which will help massively for future projects. Details of the FMRC show can be found here: Thanks Martin 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
millerhillboy Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Always been a pleasure to see Ketton out and about on its travels, I presume you didn't get a buyer for the whole thing or did you not go down that route. Be good to see what you come up with next, like Ketton I'm sure it'll be worth seeing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammstein2609 Posted October 19, 2019 Author Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hi all Ketton Cement appeared at the FMRC show in Barrow last weekend which was its last ever show. It's been on the exhibition circuit for 3 years now but I've already moved onto the next 2mm project and after that I will be moving up to 4mm! The boards will be stripped of useful modelling and electronic bits before heading off to a new owner within the next few months. I'll leave it up to him whether or not he publishes what he plans on doing with the boards. Thanks Martin 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ColinK Posted October 19, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 19, 2019 I saw it at Barrow for the first time. While I’m not normally a great fan of 2mm scale, I have to say Ketton Cement is a superb layout and I spent a long time watching it. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
