MrWolf Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Greebo being another derogatory term for motorcyclists who still ride machines made in Britain and don't comply with the "biker" culture we imported in the 70s and 80s. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNP Posted August 4, 2022 Author Share Posted August 4, 2022 Talking of motorcycles, which we seem to have deviated to reminds me that is one thing missing from this layout.

RMweb Premium Gedward Posted August 4, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 4, 2022 I know I'm stating the obvious here. But when the content is this good, it doesn't really matter which way you crop it. It's always a winner! 2 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponthir28 Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 I said it before but the non railway views. Just make the layout look much bigger than it is. Also it’s a layout in a landscape which is simply superb. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A two wheeled self propelled velocipede of this era.... Anybody seen a model of one I can use? http://www.autocraft.plus.com/page37.html They're quite simple but do detail up well with a bit of work, importantly, they are of the right pattern with bicycle style rigid rear frames and girder forks. The BSA 3 wheeler that I built recently is a DG/Autocraft kit. I do have one of the sidecar outfits that I started to build years ago, so I might just have to finish it and give an account on my thread. Anything else to avoid building that *#£&@#!!@ level crossing! Edited August 4, 2022 by MrWolf 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking for something with that level of detail for ages. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
