E3109 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 An interesting lighting technique. Illuminating only a small part of the layout allows minimal landscaping of the remainder: http://www.railpictures.net/photo/653370/ Whoops. This was the link I was referring to. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Green Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Ballina. Photo by Noel Enright. Baseboards painted grey pending scenic work!

pH Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Simple but effective scenic treatment: http://www.railpictures.net/photo/662660/ (Actually, cut it off above the greenery, and make everything behind the track as a backscene, and it really could be!) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve1 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 They're right though. The structures could be Walthers and the stock from any of the major manufacturers. steve 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the condition so much as the moulded handrails that give it away as Lima's finest . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsforever Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 The floor colour is to bright and needs a bit of weathering plus the loco is to clean. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Boar Fell Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Buses on the bridge, 2D painted sky, questionable bridge geometry/ perspective and the owner has had to touch up some paintwork on his prized jubilee.

Wild Boar Fell Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Spotted this one the other day, http://www.gwr813.org/pagept2A.html Looks like something created over on the 'Imaginary Locomotives' thread, pretty decent photo plank (nice and simple). Typically has a drystone wall to hide the backscene to baseboard joint, been there done that... Wild Boar Fell 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted July 27, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 27, 2018 Perhaps less quirky when you take into account the American influence on Churchward's standards, especially the smokebox and half saddle front ends. The Barry Railway was another South Wales concern that bought out from the US, their locos also being rebuilt by Swindon. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signaller69 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Some straight out of the box posed models! Obviously these 3 famous train headboards would never be seen together in REAL life. The Hornby white fencing is a bit bright too. Photo taken at NRM 6/8/18 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
