Hi APT Fan, I think it is a PMRP Kit, I bought it as you see it, complete with Sound fitted. Father Dougal is just building a 56 from a Kit in this section somewhere, that may help.

You've used a bag of OO ballast and then formed it into a mound using PVA glue? I'm guessing that isn't the final colour? Thanks. No, No my friend, Look at the second picture in that post, the load is a plastic moulding that comes with the wagon. I will eventually cover it in PVA and then Ballast. Here is that 2nd pic again for clarity, this is the moulding up side down with the magnets glued in. Hope that helps.

Andrew P Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 The original Trebudoc, as exhibited at the Elizibethan Railway Show in 2012. People looked but did not linger, I think it was just to dirty and grubby. So the day after the Show, I stripped it down. Turned it 180 degrees. Added the Station. And made it pretty with Station Lights and Flower Beds etc. It then returned in 2013 to a really good reception from the public. 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PeterBB Posted August 31, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 31, 2020 Trebudoc was a great layout to work - 2013 - just shows how the time goes. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a dirt track nearest to the camera that went around the back of the buffers. Edited September 1, 2020 by Andrew P 7 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a few 56's but they are all OO gauge, I haven't come across an O gauge version from any of the main manufacturers (I have now seen Dougal's thread). However, I have noticed that Heljan are due to release a 56 model early next year. Looks an interesting project, especially the 'provision for a smoke unit'. https://www.hattons.co.uk/newsdetail.aspx?id=597 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have most of the Heljan Vairients, except the 31, soon to be added, and a Peak. Also I don't have their small 03 and 05 Shunters, as I don't feel they would fit with the Layout.

Glad your enjoying the photos Steve. Found the pics Steve, it was 2012, and it wasn't Deesdale Road, it was Loch Leven. Here is Mike at the controls of Trebudoc, unfortunately he now has Alsimerz and is in a bad way. And Peter BB with Sue, one of our Club Members wives at the controls. And here are some shots of Loch Leven from the day. Edited September 1, 2020 by Andrew P 12 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
