andyram Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I can just imagine the regulars wandering aimlessly around in a daze desperately looking for their latest fix. At least two raiding the wagons in the goods yard hoping to find a barrel or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bynackmor Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Just spotted this thread Andy, great carpentry skills and I like the track work it should make a nice layout. Is the station building a model or kit bashed? Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Just spotted this thread Andy, great carpentry skills and I like the track work it should make a nice layout. Is the station building a model or kit bashed? Brian Morning Brian, Firstly thanks and welcome to PM. Re the Station building, its a Bachmann Butterly Station Extension Block and once re painted in BR / WR Colours will sit just nicely on the Layout. Thanks again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Bogie Posted April 12, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 12, 2016 Already on page 5! I ask this question somewhat afraid of the answer but - how many layouts do you reckon you could you fit in that shed of yours? (I note there is a gap between Porth Merryn and North Road) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I note there is a gap between Porth Merryn and North Road) There is no room for any more in my Shed, but PM will go up to the Clubroom when finished. We have a policy that PRIVATE Layouts are built at home, and NOT in the Clubrooms, but can be stored at Club if they go out to Exhibitions to represent the Club.

RMweb Premium Bogie Posted April 12, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 12, 2016 So we have established that shed of your does not have Tardis like qualities then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted April 12, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 12, 2016 On board here. Looking good from where I sit which is atop the cliffs at Penhayle Bay gazing up-coast towards Constantine, St. Merryn and no doubt Porth Merryn as well.

andyram Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 You would think with all of those visitors Andy's next task will be ensuring space for tea making facilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Ray H Posted April 12, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hi Clive, did they win any awards for being the UGLYEST Passenger Vehicle ever produced? hahhahhaha :no: They might have done in their time but I think they were usurped latterly by the class 67. They have even less character. Anyway, it sure is looking a fine layout Andy and up to your usual excellent standard (and that's before any scenery gets done).

Andrew P Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thanks Guys, Back to some serious stuff now and although I'm out tomorrow, on Thursday I hope to get some more done and hopefully get the wiring completed for a test run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium St Enodoc Posted April 12, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 12, 2016 Thanks Guys, I just changed the name to Porth Merryn from Tremerryn. I much prefer that and it fits in well as a fishing Harbour. Porth Merryn sounds good - rolls off the tongue in the same way as Porthmellyn Road.

Andrew P Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Porth Merryn sounds good - rolls off the tongue in the same way as Porthmellyn Road. Thanks, I didn't know whether to hit agree or thanks, but either way it's appreciated, and yes I liked it, I did play around with quite a few names, some relevant to the area, and some relevant to Family members that lived down there like combining the Pen with Dads name Roy forming Penroy, but that was a bit corny.

Andrew P Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 I also need to work out the Back Scene, I may go for a wooded area like opposite the River Tamar in this pic below, or just a simple Field, either way, I'm just playing around with Sketches at the moment. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Kazmierczak Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 We all wonder how Andy manages to have three (or more) layouts on the go at the same time. It can now be exclusively revealed that Andy has a team who do all the trackwork for him. Here we see his team in action on his next, more urban, project. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 Can't be my team Peter, they only come out at night when the Tax Man can't see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
