Now why couldn't I think of that?

 

I wonder.

[NHY 581]

Well, dare I say it...........Things are quietly coming together........There, I dared. 

 

I therefore need to start thinking of a track plan. 

 

A working title for the new project is Outwool Basin.

Unlike some other stuff Lockdown has brought into play.....I'm just off to give myself a jolly good thrashing..

 

@Gilbert Which layout is this please? I always like tracks that run off between buildings, rather than the usual bridge/tunnel

Its called Lockdown Fen. 2 SMS RUB boards with a third as a Shunting lead. I keep meaning to start a thread! A bit of Lockdown diversion.

Maybe that should be sheep stealing.......

No problem Chris. Lockdown Fen was a contributing factor in the decision to once again look to the East. 

 

The ex Great Eastern branch lines have a certain bucolic attraction. 

 

And its rustling by the way.......

Can't wait to see this new project evolve Rob

[MrWolf]

Likewise, I have always found obscure and unlikely railways to be more interesting than those that made perfect sense. 

[NHY 581]

Morning all. 

 

The game's ahoof........

 

First item of dedicated Outwool motive power has arrived at Chataeu Sheep....

 

Full test etc later, but for now......

[MrWolf]

Even if it is pidgin French, Chateau Sheep has a certain je ne c'est qoi compared with Maison Moutton. 

 

Very nice tram engine. I trust it will soon be a slightly scruffier tram engine and you're not going to stick a face on it?

Very pleased to see it has a sheep-catcher on the front. Crucial, man, crucial!

[bgman]

Interesting choice Rob, I do like the version without its sheeps underclothing though, all those sheep rods moving around look rather nice.

 

I will look forward to its appearance in due course, especially once its been in the field and got slightly mucky.

For some reason, I am thinking of a road in open fens, tramway down one verge, a road junction on the opposite side guarded by a disused pillbox. Telephone poles down the other verge and very little else.

Oh yes the pill box.....I resisted on Lockdown Fen but it would look good...small stretches of unnecessary brick wall also add to the overall picture.
