Andrew P Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Thanks Guys, No threat of Surgery, except from the Axe from the big man above maybe, apparently there is one with my name on it, but it needs sharpening. hahah. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyram Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I had the privilege of a visit to TOPs this evening and viewed Pen Y Bont in action. What a fantastic layout. The sound fitted Pannier and Auto coach looked and sounded stunning. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to build that Dairy and finish off more details soon, but at least it runs. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbowilts Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Just go to wales ,it seems everyone that goes near the place goes 7mm Brian Just found this thread. I am a regular visitor to Wales and I’ve done the exact opposite! I’ve sold all my O Gauge stuff and now am starting to dispose of my Canadian HO stuff to concentrate on 4mm EM Gauge set in the South Wales Valleys. Perhaps it depends on which part you visit?

RMweb Gold Happy Hippo Posted June 10, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 10, 2018 Yeah, don't go near to North Wales, it's contagious. Now South Wales in EM sounds interesting Tim. Been there (born there actually) and done it in 4 mm scale. Now doing similar in 7 mm scale! However, a west Wales line is still a distant 4 mm possibility, although this time I'd stick with 00 and use the new Peco bullhead track and point work. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good Richard, I've seen many Welsh Layouts, from the likes of Marc Smith and others so plenty of Scope around the Valleys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted July 3, 2018 Author Share Posted July 3, 2018 (edited) I've got Rat's in my Shed!!!!!!! Well to be fair, it's only one, and it hasn't actually arrived yet. It's a Heljan one, converted to Sound with a Paul Chetter Sound Chip and 2 X very large Bass Reflex Speakers set into a housing facing down, one over each Motor Bogie. Directional head code lighting, directional tail lights and cab lighting in both cabs. Fitted with a driver in each end (No2 end chappie looks like the second man taking a rest!!!!) and snow ploughs.(copied from Davis Post). And beautifully finished and weathered by David / Jintyman from North Wales. The base Model came to me Via Craig / Muddys Blues on my last visit to Wales in April this year. So cheers Guys, she looks stunning.
