Beresford Junction Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 I was going to ask who was driving as the speed and circles had me dizzy! (Never thought I'd get to use that emoticon!) You win the award for creative emoticon use today. 37 906 was doing the honours, on speed 10 out of 28. I did think of doing another slower run, but that would require people to sit through 3 mins of it rather than just over a minute. Now I've worked out how to use the camera again, you might get a few more sensible ones though. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted November 24, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 24, 2013 on speed 10 out of 28. I would turn down the maximum speed a bit then, I think all mine are set to 42 using the Bachmann chips, it will be more controllable and better at slow speeds.

Beresford Junction Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 My visit to Exford Park yesterday reminded me that I has a Knightwing fuel point, so I've dug it out, added some of the LED lights I had spare and hey presto... All I now need to do is find the rest of the bits and the pipes Off to buy a Christmas tree. Phil 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beresford Junction Posted December 1, 2013 Author Share Posted December 1, 2013 Quicker than you could say Jack Robinson, the green team have taken over the new fueling point. And the good news I've found the rest of the bits to compete it (apart from the pipe). Phil 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beresford Junction Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) Thanks Guy, it's certainly good to have trains going round while you get on with other things. I've done some weathering on the track in the yard and round the fuelling point, which even though it's darker, actually makes it look lighter in a strange way. And today I was in Brighton for work, so managed to pop into Gaugemaster in Ford and pick up some sides for the station platform, so made a start on that.

Beresford Junction Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 Not sure what to do here, with the platform. As you can see I've got some Peco platform edging which I've sprayed gray. I've also found some pavement sheets from Metcalfe in my box of bits, which I'm not convinced about Or I could just use the platform edging against the wood (I've also got some chipboard I might use instead) which is the correct height then paint, but I'd need to cut off all the sticky out things, top and the bottom. This would have the advantage of not having any joins in the card. Of course you could ask why I'm building a station for what is a goods yard, but let's not go there right now.....

Wrighty Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Hi Phil, I see your dilemma although I think the paving sheets look pretty good. However I can see the argument for the second option which as you say would remove the issue of trying to hide the joins in the card. Kind regards Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ess1uk Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 the paving looks good, dont worry about joins too much as you can put lamps and bins and benches over them or another bit of "tarmac" card where a dodgy repair has been done, or fake inspection pits etc etc platforms because of mini beresfords? i have the same problem 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitbull1845 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Phil, I've used the peco edges and I've removed all of the tabs sticking out. I've then used a glue gun to stick the edges onto 18mm thick timber. Next I'm going to polyfilla the top and go from there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
