Popular Post KNP Posted September 7, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) And the last picture, couldn't include it with above as I had used up the 10mb. From this angle, camera resting on the roof of the goods shed, the row of cottages came out exactly as I had envisaged it in my minds eyes.... Now to finish the washing lines which will need the building fixed down as some of the lines will be fixed to the house wall...just like at my Grandma's where you had to duck under the washing to get to the back door. Shop front to do as well but I had decided minimal is the route to go here, not that large, pub like, sign I made.....!

Now this picture has caused much debate in the engineering works here at Little Muddle. The brass plate on 4825 is the original and now looks distinctly off colour compared with 4820. I feel the next time I order from Modelmaster I shall organise a replacement set. For now, I will keep these two locos apart! Kevin, Has the debate in the engineering Dept extended to who stole the ash pans off both these locos? Not a big deal but FYI see Andy's comments on "ashpangate" here: https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/92852-hattons-announce-14xx-48xx-58xx/&do=findComment&comment=2537616 great detailing BTW. Is there any chance of that photo of the LM cottages from the angle I suggested a while ago?

Popular Post KNP Posted September 10, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) Aerial view as requested... These are what I had to hand. The module will be removed in the next day or two to finish the back gardens, so I will take some more when it is easy to get access to all areas Edited March 23 by KNP 27 1 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the Fowler is fixed in place really makes it for me, whether it's prototypically accurate or not. How very clever of you to get it to fit under the loading gauge. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I didn't cheat as the loading gauge is removable so I could, did say could, have lifted it up to fit.! 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These started their lives as Ratio kits that I have modified to suit my locations, sort of mods MSE ladders, Modelu finials and thin wire for rods. They don't work and there are times when I wished they did as the pictures look wrong. One day they might change if the right ones are manufactured. And of course who can't forget this one that caused a major upset until I moved the branch signal arm!!!!! Edited March 23 by KNP 17 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold gwrrob Posted September 15, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 15, 2019 I had several signals made by @Stephen Freeman for ANTB and they worked out nearly as cheap as the motorized Dapol offerings. 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulcanbomber Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 By my initial calculations I need to standard home signals and 2 bracket signals as a starter. Like you I would like working signals, it's just the cost if a bit of putting, we are looking at spending about £150 if my calculations are correct. I might stat slowly by adding first 2 working Home signals and then add the bracket signals as Ratio one's to be replaced later as a compromise. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
