Hi Clive, don't worry, we will form a "Release Clive now" Committee and do similar dances. We could bring RMweb to a halt for literally seconds.

Signaller69 Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 5 hours ago, Clive Mortimore said: Hi Martyn The 108 has the wrong body profile for a 114 or a 107. The Derby lightweights and the 108s had a continuous curve like a BR Mk1 (I am not sure if it is the same radius) but had there windows set low like a LMS coach. The 114 and 107 (and the Derby suburban units) had a LMS profile with the windows set higher as on a BR coach. Very confusing If you place a ruler on a photo of a blue livery 107 or 114 where the yellow meets the blue from the roof until about 3/4 of the way down it is straight then there is a tuck under. Do the same to a lightweight or 108 and there is nowhere straight for the ruler to line up with. It is with this knowledge I know my two lightweight singles are wrong, along with the window spacing on the center seating bay, the incorrect under gubbins, bogies too close together and me making the cabs. This is very true, my chop & stitch DMUs have such errors too. I find the body profile issue isn't too obvious in most cases, particularly as they are generally viewed from the side. Certainly a worthwhile compromise to achieve something not otherwise easily available though. Talking of rulers having nothing straight to refer to, reminds me I need to buy a new "engineers square". I know I can cut a well marked, straight line. But several projects now seem to have shown that my existing one seems to be set at about 87°, so as much use as a chocolate teapot. 3 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted February 16, 2021 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted February 16, 2021 I did a bit of operating earlier and things didn't go well, so I gave up. It was me not the trains. So I have had a feet up evening.

muddy water Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Inspired by Clive’s multicoloured chop shop, I though why not create a 4 REP class 432? Many cuts later and I achieved this! Triang for the brake first TBF and driving motor second DMSO. The buffet is a Lima RBR which needs some windows filling/ moving. But as Triang do not make a coach with 3/4 windows, this was the easier option. Only two different liveries of coach, so I will have to try hard to source more colours for next time! 9 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBC4 shows old editions of ToTP every Friday. My wife and I enjoy the nostalgia, although we are fast-forwarding through much of it now as they are up to 1990 and it's the rave/dance era, which was terrible. At least the Britpop/Madchester scene will arrive shortly, then we'll get "Smells like Teen Spirit" and the world will never be the same again. Once they get to 1998 we will get to the edition where I'm in the audience, showing some moves to Brandy, Billie Piper, M People et al. For some reason though, the production team wanted me and my mate to stand at the back.... 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with a bit of rave/dance IMHO, some if the tracks can have quite an hallucinary quality to them. This just evokes summer on the beach. And this has quite a railway feel to it, train climbing uphill then once over the top pulling away strongly. Not sure about the video that goes with them but I get my music from radio, only time I see video now is on YouTube or similar. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi John, You are referring to a state of mind problem that is easily solved by not treating oneself as; over the hill, fuddy duddy, past it, too old for this sort of thing, or anything else along such lines. My body will soon be 51 but my conscious mind is timeless and as such I am able to place myself anywhere that my state of conscious mind decrees. Remember, healthy mind, healthy body, and as a result in my case nothing much has changed. I shall add there is nothing stopping anyone else taking such a path, in fact I would suggest that it has much to be recommended. Gibbo. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
