Gloucester Road Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 In addition to my UK layouts I do have a smaller US layout that my youngest occasionally takes interest in doing. So we do have some US engines, when scaletrains.com announced a Rivet Counter N Scale GE Tier 4 GEVo ET44 we were very interested. As much as we liked some of the US road names the CN livery just looked really good. So we purchased one. Oh my is it good. Here it is sitting on my TMD diorama stephen 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted August 20, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 20, 2018 Picked up two of those, one UP and the other NS (my other halfs purchase as she is tepmted by anything NS), at the Kansas City Convention just over a week ago. They look stunning. As we only arrived home yesyterday I am yet to test them on DC but hope to today. The Next18 decoders (non sound) are hard to find but two are on their way from YouChoose here in the UK. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloucester Road Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Did a bit of train spotting today. All was quiet so took some pictures looking back into town. Then there was a bit or a rumble, I quickly set up the try pod. Managed to catch 37409 going by. Stephen 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted November 5, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 5, 2018 Is that a recent new development on the backscene? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloucester Road Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 Is that a recent new development on the backscene? Yes, it is. Infact another one arrived today and completely changes the feel of the layout again. And the TMD with a very eclectic gathering of motive power. stephen 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloucester Road Posted November 12, 2018 Author Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) In todays episode of how not to build a model train layout. Decided to install the ID backscene that arrived, however in yesterdays pictures the horizon line feels like it sits too high. So out came the supports for it and we prepped for installation with it siting lower. Been a longtime since the layout has had this much change. Looks naked with no back drop. Managed to remove the supports for the backdrop with minimal damage to the rest of the layout, but it does answer the question. Should the backscene be done first? yes, yes it should.

Gloucester Road Posted November 13, 2018 Author Share Posted November 13, 2018 Half of the backscene is installed, took my wife, 2 boys and myself to get the 10ft section in. The horizon sits lower and to my eye look much better. Stephen 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloucester Road Posted November 15, 2018 Author Share Posted November 15, 2018 (edited) Managed to get the rest of the backscene up today. Stephen Edited November 15, 2018 by Gloucester Road 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
