cornish trains jez Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 Good evening, Just thought I would post a couple more photos from my collection, both taken in 1989, so bang on my era modelled. First up, NSE liveried 86401 prepares to depart Euston. Next up, 86207 “City of Lichfield” heads out light engine. An unidentified Intercity liveried class 87 lurks in the background, probably waiting to take a down service forward. Best regards, Jeremy 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBE Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I always liked 401. I will have to have it for Stafford for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornish trains jez Posted June 18, 2018 Author Share Posted June 18, 2018 I always liked 401. I will have to have it for Stafford for sure. Got to be done! I've come across some photos of it double heading with an Intercity liveried class 86 on freight. Can't remember where though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I was around then to witness them as now most of them are probably overseas or have been sent to the cutters torch. I will post some more I mine on during the week. Also, when are we going to see the next update? Best regards, Matthew Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, when are we going to see the next update? Best regards, Matthew Hi Matthew, I'm currently progressing the platform surfaces on platforms 1 - 3 and also the ramp down so will be posting an update once I have completed both these bits. Glad you like the two photos I posted. Best regards, Jeremy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted June 18, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 18, 2018 I assume you've got a model of 401 Jeremy? If not, shout, I have and it's never ever been out of the box, was going to put it on eBay tonight curiously! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame they didn't repaint several of the class in this livery. Best regards, Jeremy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornish trains jez Posted June 18, 2018 Author Share Posted June 18, 2018 Like the wessex emu coaches? bournemouth depot.jpg I have a set of resin cab ends for one of those. And as there is third rail at Euston, I have an excuse!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium njee20 Posted June 18, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 18, 2018 I’ve got a set I did years ago, when TPM still had the proper bogies etc, annoyingly it didn’t fare well in a house move! Got a spare set of cab fronts and MBLS underframe to do another one. Must do them sometime. Fox do a set of decals with all livery elements for NSE, save all the masking!

Best regards, Jeremy It doesn't hurt to pretend another one was painted in that livery. Perhaps you could 86402 or even an 87 in that livery, that would look interesting!

cornish trains jez Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 Good morning, Another one taken at Euston in 1988. 86253 "The Manchester Guardian" runs light in the station. This loco was repainted into the revised intercity livery with full yellow cab fronts later on in the year and had TDM's fitted.

cornish trains jez Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) And here she is again at Euston a year later in 1989... I intend to have this loco in my fleet in this guise.

LMS_LNER_SR_GWR_fan2004 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Hi guys, It's a bit of topic but here's a couple of photos from my collection. Class 90 90003 speeds through Needham Market station with the Norwich to London Liverpool Street Service and class 91 91130 passes St Neots with the London Kings Cross to Leeds service. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is an N gauge kit of a 4 COR so may have to do some research on that. Best regards, Jeremy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornish trains jez Posted June 19, 2018 Author Share Posted June 19, 2018 Looks like the Midland Pullman ran into Euston too in the 1960's according to this web page.. http://www.warwickshirerailways.com/lms/lnwrcov218.htm 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
