Popular Post KNP Posted March 12 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 12 Extend the siding so a piece of track was found So the old piece removed and excavation works commenced, track cut to size and…. and glueing in place Note. Engine shed, figures, telegraph poles removed as I was leaning over the layout to work on it…..help saves unnecessary damage! 25 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KNP Posted March 12 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 12 (edited) Glued and ballasted in place. I have found it will take quite a few weeks to fully dry giving me the finished colour which I can then match with surrounding areas And all back in place. Now I can park a couple of Panniers, or a tender loco and still leave space….and the pipe from the water tank reaches this siding as well????

Ah I have spotted a slight problem which I'm rather shocked that you seem to have glibly overlooked. Where's the engine shed door going to lean now that you've occupied the space it was occupying. You see not so pleased with yourself now are you. Of course you could be waiting for this to pointed out and will then calmly announce that the door is going to rehung as part of the upgrading of LM. In which case I've provided you with your cue and will await your next posting. 5 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will, however, wait and see what magic you work to improve its appearance! 4 hours ago, DRoe96 said: Looking fantastic as ever. Could I ask where the manual point Lever came from?

I think it's a tribute to the widespread appeal of LM that the OP has made fewer than one-third of the total posts so far. 3 10 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the engine is rearing back in disgust or there’s something really heavy in the cab. Have the crew been eating too many pies? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
