Barnaby Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) Great videos Andy all are well worth re-views which I have been doing. Off out to my hobby shed to add some more choc-block terminations for the continuing wire up. The bulk of the wiring is on board 2 which has 4 of the 5 points on and is the one I'm working on just now. All the boards have their droppers installed I just need to link them to their termination points. Keep you videos coming please.

But how many lol, you had a secret lottery win Haha, I don't smoke or drink and sold a whole load of OO and O Steam stuff to fund the O Gauge Diesels. Mind you I still have my New Mills in the Layouts section, and that Layout is for sale at the moment so as to have a bit less to move when we move Souff soon. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 The 56 takes the Catfish to the Upper Yard for sorting in to a Ballast working later in the day. Unfortunately I used the spot lamp and it's really caught the rust of the wagons etc. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you get better results than when using powders and a brush? 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jonathan, and yes it has transformed the front of the Layout and the overall look when photographed now, and has needed doing for a long time. Thanks for the positive comments.

Andrew P Posted September 24, 2019 Author Share Posted September 24, 2019 And now for something totally different. A copy of a post in New Mills. I had a day out at Bridgnorth and Arley on the Severn Valley Railway today with a couple of mates, saw some great stuff and came home inspired. More pics and maybe some Video over the coming days. 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnaby Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 (edited) Well I never, you were at my local railway the Severn Valley. I live a 5 min drive away from Bewdley Station and my garden has lumps of coal and rail keepers by the load. I live on the spur that ran from Burlish crossing down to the Power Station in Stourport sadly no longer there. The land that makes up the back of my garden was where the old railway track ran. BR sold off the land and all us lucky people bought it for pennies. it's where my hobby shed now resides. Co-incidental the gate keepers house at the Burlish Crossing bridge is up for sale.
