However the finished job seems to work with the super detailed 47 and the faux Pullman MK2 brake. The natural light out in the garden and whips of smoke from the neighbour’s bonfire adds to the realism….. I’m not sure the green is right on that loco. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really should have done a colour sample check before ploughing on with the airbrushing. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

railsquid Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Lovely little diorama: 56031 Class 56 arrives at Leamington Spa with 1Z38 - the Midland Executive railtour by themightyhood, on Flickr The bashers hanging out of the coach windows are a nice touch you don't see modelled often. 14 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh for goodness sake!! Typical lazy modeller's error, as they couldn't be bothered to do research.... A Class 56 pulling coaches??!! everyone knows they only ever pulled MGR hoppers.... 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
montyburns56 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Too much stock for a single platform termini and that MK1 suburban definitely needs a bit of weathering. Silloth 1964 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Green too Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Could do with a bit more work on that teddy-bear fur grass - it's not bad, just a little too even. Lovely painted backscene - but it's obviously just behind the buildings 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoey Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Weathering the building in the background took a fair few different colours of paints and mixes! The hand built wagons look pretty good too 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickham Green too Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Inappropriate locos and stock for the location - unconvincing cotton wool blobs on the leading loco but nothing at either chimney - ever so bland plain blue backscene. The stacks of baseplates are rather nicely modelled, though ! “Lough Atalia” Railtour : Ballinasloe, 14/5/94 15 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Holliday Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 This photo, taken from the Shoreham-by-sea archives, came up in the discussions of the Brighton Circle. Bungalow Town, between Lancing and Shoreham in winter. Looks like someone has found a use for all those slightly warped Graham Farish Pullman bodies. 11 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
