RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted July 28, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 28, 2016 Thanks fellas, sorry this is the first time I've managed to get back on here mum and Rosa came home Tuesday night so it's been a busy couple of days. She's great apart from the sound chip seems to go off all by itself at night and there's plenty of black tary clag!! Seriously though she's good as getting free SLW locos for life (far better than gold) Thanks again everyone it's feedy time now so I'll get back on here as soon as I can an once she's in a routine I'll hopefully get the odd 5 minutes modelling!!

Haha that's what I thought but to be fare once she's had a bottle she's happy in her little bouncer so she can watch me and learn a few things for the future Can't wait to take her to a an exhibition!!

RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted July 30, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 30, 2016 Well after nearly a week things are getting more into a routine so today I grabbed 30 minutes to measure up how the bridge fits and will look and it's spot on. Having measured up though I've decided to bring it forward about 35-40mm, in the original position the nearest inside wall and roof will overhang and will need to be cut But if I bring it forward I'll prevent all the hassle of this I didn't really want to do this but it'll be far easier in the long run, thoughts would be welcome on this.

Guest bri.s Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Looks good mate ,I think if it makes it easier and it still looks fine then there's no probs with moving the bridge a slight bit Brian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted July 31, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 31, 2016 Thanks Vulcan, David an Brian, I'm pleased with how it looks to be honest so fingers crossed I'll get a bit more done later. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jintyman Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I agree with Brian, it's not always accuracy that's important, it's the aesthetics, and functionality. Great job on the bridge Paul. Jinty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job on the bridge Paul. Jinty Thanks Jinty it just makes sense looking at it for the sake of 30mm, part of the wall will still be on the other board but it'd be far less difficult.

RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted July 31, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 31, 2016 I have managed to be grabbing the odd ten minutes here and there today but nothing other thank marking out paving slabs on think plasticard, these will be cut out and painted and laid individually when I make the movement, I do like making things difficult for myself Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leopardml2341 Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 What type of bus are you gonna have on the bridge, Paul? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jintyman Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 What type of bus are you gonna have on the bridge, Paul? Crosville Leyland National from my neck of the woods!!!!!! Jinty 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted July 31, 2016 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 31, 2016 Haha I remember Crosville Leyland Nationals great bus, always had a fondness of the Leyland Atlantean though Not sure if I'll go for the obligatory bus on bridge although I am tempted to incorporate a bus depot as a low relief back scene the Meccano factory is a bit boring. One thing that bugs me with bridges and roads on layout is the fact trains move on layouts but cars buses etc don't, this can't be helped but I always thought this lets things down a bit so any vehicle that's on the bridge will be modelled as if parked, it's the same as people, it's pointless having figures of folk running or walking as a train rushes past and they are there as if frozen in time . So any figures will be stationary as if having a sit down or conversation etc. I can't take credit for this as I remember these wise words on Clive Mortimore's Pig Lane thread, as soon as I read them they made perfect sense.

leopardml2341 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Bus stop and queue on bridge as well then. You could always fit an operating nearside indicator to the bus for some 'Life'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
