RMweb Gold Captain_Mumbles Posted January 1, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 1, 2023 More point work being made using the usual recipe of Templot, Peco code 75 bullhead, PCB and small brass strips. With most of the layout being curved and flowy off the shelf is not an option, not to mention the price of off the shelf ones. Cheers! Ben 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain_Mumbles Posted January 2, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 2, 2023 Gday All! The next point is towards the back of the layout and so is an experiment in using the chairs from the Peco bullhead flex track. The lovely sprues of chairs, slide chairs, ect are not the easiest thing to obtain on my side of the world so I will use what little I have on the foreground stuff. It was a little time consuming having to cut the chairs off the sleepers. It should look okay once painted. I am also trying to build a single slip. Thanks for looking. 3 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain_Mumbles Posted January 3, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 3, 2023 Gday all! I have managed to make a nice enough line from the platforms to the mainline through the slip. A relief after having done all that work. Thanks for looking. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain_Mumbles Posted January 18, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 18, 2023 I have taken a short break from laying brick card and making platforms to get one of my locos operational, a Gresley P2 remix. The excuse being that I really need to get the longest wheelbase locomotive on there to really put the track work to test (and the loco too!) With a re-gauging of some wheels it is going very reliably. The pony truck could be a little heavier though. Thanks for looking! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain_Mumbles Posted August 22, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted August 22, 2023 More hand laid points to be made. Finishing the track work on this side of the layout will be a boost. The point motors could be fitted and scenery can be started. Thanks for looking!! 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain_Mumbles Posted October 1, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted October 1, 2023 Some more brickwork to be done. A new engine on Mumbleton is a Hornby Humorist and Railroad A1 remix. So the old Gadwall can take a break now and then. Cheers! Ben 5 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypherman Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Hi Captain. You are going to have an absolutely incredible layout when it is finished. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are going to have an absolutely incredible layout when it is finished. Thanks! It is a shame that life gets in the way of it too much. Importantly, I have it at the stage where I can at least run some trains and chill out on a chair to end a hard day's work with a beverage to the sound of the swooshing and clanky clank of trains. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
