OK, so that's tomorrow morning taken care of. What's the plan after your afternoon nap? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your FB. About your point on overlap of steam and diesel Barnaby hope the following helps Southern Region steam ended Summer 67 Western Region steam end of 1965 - but odd overlaps - Bath Bournemouth steam (on S&D) until March 1966 Midland Region August 1968 Eastern Region 1966 (I think) Preservedbristishsteamlocomotives.com has a table by loco class and by year Hope that helps.

Barnaby Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) That Siding West Shed is looking very swish now Andy, very realistic. Can you remind me with a video maybe of how your layout now runs end to end to include all the locations. Paul thanks for some more details ref the end of Steam and when Diesel appeared on the rails. I think I am going to use a lot of Rule 1 as some of my choices will be locos that were not running together.

Best Hi Barnaby, Firstly its not West Shed, West Shed was an OO Layout from a few years ago, see below. The New Section is Bench Road, as it fits over the end of my Bench. I cant do a Video at the moment, but here is a POD Plan to help. 17 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Andrew P Posted January 15, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2021 This morning I've done the rest of the Scenics on Bench Road, and I just need to wait now for the PVA to dry, probably Monday, and then I can hoover up the excess into an old sock and put back into a used / spare container for re use later. 19 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Andrew P Posted January 16, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) The PVA has dried a lot quicker than I thought, I guess that's the beauty of the Warm Air Panel heater that comes on at 3am. So as it was. And now Hoovered and Tested. NOTE = Its not as bright as it looks, but the DAYLIGHT led lighting does make it very bright so I'll have to get used to turning a set off when doing the proper photos.

andi4x4 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) What camera are you using, Andy ? Different model/makes of camera seem to emphasise different colours - the Canon DSLR I have really seems to highlight the reds. I seem to recall that Fuji and Nikon favour green. You can play with the gamma settings of the camera or the software you use for editing to soften the tones/mix.

Regards Andi I used the small Canon for all these shots, I have a Fuji, but the battery cover has broken, this is the second one that has gone now, but I used that for my Photo Shoots for the Mag as it has a greater depth of field, so I'm told, and whatever that means. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
