I have always been slightly surprised that a guy in his 20's, living on the other side of the world, was so interested in the 1930s LNER. This is my own area of interest but i haven't achieved as much as you though I've been trying for longer! The fiddle yard to support the sequence shown must be spacious. I particularly liked the variety of coaching stock making up the secondary services. Please can we have more as the layout progresses? I blame this This thread for my interest. It goes back to March 2014, I just turned 18, walked into my local newsagent on my birthday and grabbed the latest BRM and in all her glory on the front cover was Grantham. I was hooked. Sold all my stock that wasn’t LNER and started annoying everyone left right and centre. Graham(@LNER4479) copped it first, then @Tony Wright and now it’s @jwealleans🤣. All jokes aside Grantham had a profound effect on me, as did the group of people building her and I would not be the modeller I am today without the three mentioned modellers, they are not alone either there many, many more who have helped, continue to still help me. The variety in the secondary services was another aspect that had drawn me to the LNER. You had the new prestige services of the Flying Scotsman and the Streamliners flying past humble workings of ancient ex-grouping stock. As the LNER was one of the poorest they kept old stock in revenue earning service. I’ve tried to show this but some things take time and I may move faster than others, but I’m that fast, still some decent kit building to replace RTR coaches. The fiddleyard isn’t actually that big, compared to other layouts, she’s quite small. However, I have tried to fit as much as I can into the room, there’s nearly a dozen kick back sidings, some trains run more than once with simple loco changes to give the impression it’s an entirely different train. 18 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
