47606odin Posted April 5, 2021 Author Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Finally finished the last of the cant rail strip, luckily once the roof is painted it’ll tidy up the upper edges and then weathering should hide any other discrepancies. Then we can get the transfers on Edited April 5, 2021 by 47606odin 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47606odin Posted April 5, 2021 Author Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Sector decals added in the correct place for 053 and 064. They were a bit of a nuisance as they kept wanting to curl up, but got there in the end looking pretty good so far Edited April 5, 2021 by 47606odin 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Just now, 47606odin said: I might need to start out-stationing some.....perhaps I need to build Tonbridge West Yard I've see the OO Layout several times, and always admired it. The last time I saw it was at DEMU at Burton on Trent about 5 years ago, its still analogue and running many Lima 33 and 73's but mighty impressive with its many Kit and scratch built EMU's etc. I recon you'd need an indoor Tennis Court to do it justice in O mate.

47606odin Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 Well, Tonight we get hit by Catagory 2 Tropical Cyclone Seroja. It appears the eye of the storm will go over us as the cyclone hits land. Most of the winds will come from the east as it arrives, right on the railway room. Fingers crossed, that side of the house is protected enough by the house next door, don’t want too much water in through the crappy Australian window frames 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47606odin Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) Well guys, just to let you know, we survived Tropical Cyclone Seroja. No power yet, maybe by Wednesday. Intermittent data connection and no phones. We suffered no damage, however, we feel sorry for the town of Kalbarri 100km up the coast where 100% of properties received some damage and received the full force of the storm normal service will resume ASAP, but maybe a little while yet Edited April 12, 2021 by 47606odin 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
