class"66" Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 More nice detailing here my mate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 Thanks class66 Today sees a bit more work on the layout with the rest of the retaining wall and more details being addded. The kadee magnets are fitted on the front two sidings so I can do a little shunting on the wagon works but I need to get some practice in on these. I'm only going to fit the kadees to the 08s and 20s as the large locos won't fit into the sidings with wagons and wouldn't really shunt the yard this small.

mason Posted November 22, 2016 Author Share Posted November 22, 2016 The retaining walls have now been completed by James and the look superb I have added some greenery to break up the brick work and I am totally pleased with how it looks. I picked a walthers air con and vent kit up recently and thought they would be a great detail to add to the buildings and depot walls. Easy to build and once sprayed and weathered they look really cool, the hardest thing to do is decide we're to put them Now it's all the fine details to add which always takes s little longer I have also had my Bachmann 25 rebooted by our inhouse weathering and sound fit guy who has given it a much better weathered look as opposed to the factory job and added a SWD sound decoder It looks and sounds superb 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.C.M Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Hi Neil, Only just found this, I don't get as much time on here these days. This is a great looking layout and as Alex said you can't beat a few loco's in railfreight liv. Didn't know you had a shop either hope it's going well for you. Cheers Peter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crisis Rail Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Not sure about the split two level affair concept Neil but 47033 is a belter - nice close ups on the Stabling / Fuelling Point. Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Hi mateThe split level is to keep the paying public at shows entertains while I'm chatting haha I'm always conscious of something moving and given that this is our show layout advertising our business we get a lot of people chatting to us which is superb. The shuttle system is perfect to keep something rolling at all times and it's simple to change stock too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 Lots more details added Dornaplas groinf levers and I added some rodding on the 3 way A Woking still forklift Some faller bins Also stock wise is a translator coach and 47033 is fitting in nicely Next to arrive is a loco I have been after for a while A large logo 56, currently being sound fitted and weathered and renumbered. Excited about this addition. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
