Beresford Junction Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Hi Terry To add a YouTube link, you yo to the video you want to share (in YouTube) and click on the 'Share' link underneath which will provide you with a shortened link to the video. Then just paste it into the reply window. There was an issue at one time where it only worked from the full editor in RMWeb (available via the 'More Post Options' button) - not sure if this is still the case or not. You can check if it worked before doing the full post by clicking on the 'Preview Post' button Drop me a private message if you're still stuck.

Guest Dave.C Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I enjoyed the cab ride, I take it that you have insulated the whole area using the foil covered bubble wrap type material. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hybridangel77 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 BUILDING THE THIRD RAIL. Ok so i started to fit the third rail chairs which are from peco. i started by drilling small holes into every fifth sleeper ready to fit the chairs which takes for ever to remove from the sprue i might add. I did pre color some of the chairs but found the paint came off when trying to fit them in place so carried on with out further painting and have decided to paint once the rail was in place. The first piece of rail head which are again from peco and are a code 60 rail was then fitted with the chairs then the chairs were then glued in place but again i found that very fiddly and annoying. so i opted to glue the chairs in place first using super glue and then left it for 24 hours to dry. The next day i then just slid the code 60 rail through the chairs which i found a lot easier to do that the first method. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybridangel77 Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 THIRD RAIL After hours and hours of boring and very fiddly third rail fitting, the first section is now complete and all that needs to be done now is the painting of the chairs and rail which i will do using the same method as the rest of the track on the layout by using sleeper grime with an airbrush. Even tho this is a pain in the arse job the im very pleased with how it looks and hope you all think the same. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibrows Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Hi Terry Like a number if others I have been subscribed to you're YouTube channel for a while.

Swifty11 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Very well done Terry, from what you said on your layout update it was a pain in the backside, it really does look fantastic though now finished! Don't think you will put London underground services in as that would mean 4th rail, that would be torture!! Thanks, Tom 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Tom lol yeah no way am i adding underground and 4th rail.i have only done around a meters worth of 3rd rail and already have a huge headache from it. but i do agree that it looks good when done.it will look even better once i have weathered it hopefully. terry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a rubbish idea, how about take a razor saw to the code 60 3rd rail track and cut the sleepers off right upto the rail, (and on the other side) and then you wouldn't have to slide them in the rail chairs, only easier option I can think of, see what I mean by rubbish idea! Anyway, do you have any 3rd rail stock? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hybridangel77 Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Nice modeling 3rd rail looks great... it looks ok now its done.just need to get the airbrush on it.still have so much 3rd rail to fit yet tho! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have a go at building an electrostar like James Makin, (he has 2 now!) You can buy resin cabs from him on eBay... So, 4veps coming to Glebe road then, will be great when done... Thinking about it a class 450 would be a straight forward conversion? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
