mason Posted October 20, 2015 Author Share Posted October 20, 2015 Had a little night time running session last night and i'm really pleased with how the yard lights illuminate the layout. Really enjoying running this little layout and the scenic sector plate makes for interesting moves. All good practice ahead of the Weston on Trent show next month. Also a possibility of the BRM shows next year, fingers crossed. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of yours Neil? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Heljan-Engine-Shed-/221934823152?hash=item33ac58a6f0:g:z6wAAOSwo6lWPkbj Looks very good. As regards being up to whatever - garage layout all done bar a few minor tweaks but good to be running (with a teenager) a full Castle JPA rake and EWS 66 - local interest up here as Castle Cement is near Clitheroe. Funds tight as other interest (Carbon Poles not cheap) eventually want to run a FLiner70 with JNA MTA OBA MHA consist as the Basford to Carlisle flow. Maybe DRS 20 on Flasks to Heysham and a couple of DMU hopefully a Realtrack 144. Good feature in Model Rail - you have come along so much.

Ian Hi Ian Yes that is one of mine, i didnt realise it was being sold, satisfying to know its up for that much too Things have changed so much for me and the business has gone leaps and bounds and still growing. I look back at the days of pilot road and Deeping lane and and then look at Eddington Yard and think yeah thats not a bad improvement hahaha Pictures look "stunning" my mate... Thanks mate:) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeT Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Lookin' good Neil, another good layout... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 Lookin' good Neil, another good layout... Thanks George I can't take full credit as it was originally built in 2008 and featured in Railway modeller the same year, i can take credit in renovating it and adding DCC and lighting and the building repairs and bringing it back to its best again. I hope the original builder of the layout is happy with what i have done and its a testiment to his skills that it is still about and doing shows again after 7 years. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne 37901 Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I do like the look of it, I'm sure the new owner is enjoying it. Did you find out if he's on RMweb? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm afraid he isn't, he did let me have a go though and I had an enjoyable half hour or so playing with the layout, I really like the scenic fiddle yard.

ABOGauge Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 This is the original builder here and I so amazed that this is still out there on the curcuit and going strong. Thanks to those who have taken it over and loved it. It looks alovely still and brings back some good modelling memories. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
