He has ballasted, you just have the wrong idea what style of ballast. If you look at the image, all the space outside of the four foot is brown, within the four foot it is ballast grey-brown. The layout is perfectly ballasted, just in 2d, not 3d like yours will be. 3 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The diesel stabling point trap. To answer Mapp Goldfish's question. Set to allow a loco to enter or exit the stabling point. Click of the point motors and the mainline is set for a train to run past the stabling point and the trap is there to stop any runaways going any where. See I caught one escaping. The set up at the ex GNR loco yard. Oh, I thought you meant the wide-to-gauge one. How disappointing... 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodenhead Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I took my second baseboard off the frame this evening and stared at the six points I need to lift, de-spring and frog wire. That's progress, tomorrow I might touch one of the points maybe sort out my cutting board in readiness for surgery. Not your usual style but she's an excellent musician and a lovely voice 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted August 27, 2021 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted August 27, 2021 When I started Sheffield Exchange I was horrified at Peco changing their packaging from cardboard to plastic for their points etc. I had a chat with Steve from the Railway Modeller and another chap at Peco (sorry cannot remember his name) about the new packaging and recycling. I am pleased to say that my recent purchases of Peco products they are now labeling the packaging with advice on recycling and saying where possible they are using recycled material. I cannot claim my chat made the change but I am really pleased to see the labeling advice about recycling. Well done Peco. 10 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastwestdivide Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 19 hours ago, Clive Mortimore said: Anyone out there who can speak Basque and can tell me what this song is about Basque lyrics are on the YT page: BURUZ BEHERA Batzutan azkar doa berez geldi dagoena, dena desberdina da nor bere arabera. Ba al dakizu ze forma duen munduak buruz behera? IKUSI NAHI BADEZU DESBERDIN, SENTITU NAHI BADEZU DESEGIN. TXORIAK BURUAN, HANKAK AIREAN, IGO NAHI BADEZU NERE GAINEAN. Itsasoa zeru da eta zerua itsaso, seia bederatzia izan daiteke akaso. Egi berrien bila biziko gera buruz behera. and the (n)ever reliable google translate says: ABOUT Sometimes the one who stands still goes fast, everything is different depending on who he is. Do you know what shape the world has about down? IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT DIFFERENTLY, IF YOU WANT TO FEEL UNDERSTAND. BIRDS IN THE HEAD, LEGS IN THE AIR, IF YOU WANT TO GO UP ON ME. The sea is the sky and the sky the sea, maybe six may be nine. We will live in search of new truths about down. I suspect Googl’s Basque-English translation needs some work. I went to a talk about the Basque language once: it’s very confusing, it’s unlike other European languages, and also has its own dialects/varieties even within the relatively small Basque-speaking area. 2 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted August 31, 2021 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted August 31, 2021 Tonight's song is by a Korean band, I don't think anyone will be concentrating on the lyric let alone which language. Much better than the original. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
