Hugh Flynn Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Hi Class 31 looks great with a nice touch of weathering. Do you have a tamper for layout. Did you manage to fit the layout sign,s. Hugh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick G Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Hi Hugh, Do you have a tamper for layout. Did you manage to fit the layout sign,s. No tamper for this layout (yet). I fancy one of the DCC sound and operating Viessmann tampers though. I used to have a Britannia Pacific tamper DCC fitted on Dyserth Road many years ago but that has long since been sold. Yes the layout signs are on I will get some photos at some point. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robofleeds Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Great observation of the contemporary railway scene, translated into some very realistic modelling. I don't doubt John's expertise in the photography department Nick, but the results depend on some excellent modelling in the first place so methinks you are doing yourself an injustice giving John the credit. A good photograph can't make a poor model look this good - if anything it will show up any hairy modelling and there's no sign of any of that here. Well done mate - I can only aspire to your standard! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
