Well the heater is back on in TOPS, but with a couple of inches of Snow last night, it will take some time to warm up in there, so I'll go out about 9-30 ish.

 

I have some Weathering jobs to do today, A Blue Duchess, a Fowler Tank and 6 x O Gauge wagons for a chap. 

 

Must finish me cup of tea first though. :sungum:

Do you have a snow ploughs fitted to your loco's?

Snow I don't mate, but it normally has the Sun shining down  / up here, (depending on where people reading this live).

Tidy up and sort out this morning ready to start Weathering, and in putting some stuff away I had to get some more out, so it's Large Logo time.

Today I've been doing a couple of Locos for some friends of mine, firstly a Beautiful Blue Duchess, City of Bristol. Mark wanted in use but wiped a bit clean by the Shed men.

I like the class 4 passenger tank.

Yes mate, Stanier and Fowler Tanks are a nice size.

 

There are some more Weathering pics on the Penybont Sidings Thread.

Going back a few posts, does it really take 5 big diesels to haul 3 wagons, and 2 to shift a brake van?

 

:no:

Yes, tomorrow I will get the 33 and Tanks out, so that will mean starting up the other 4 and get them moved somewhere.

So the New Yard is now laid and fully wired including all the Point Motors.

But it didn't stay empty for very long. Just as I remember from Train spotting from 1977 to the 2000's
