pitbull1845 Posted September 28, 2018 Author Share Posted September 28, 2018 (edited) Thanks guys..im pleased with the way it's going.. 37114 (deputising for a coal sector 37) can be seen arriving at the run round after discharging its coal load. After a short tea stop the driver will be returning the empties back to Nelson Bog, somewhere in the valleys.

pitbull1845 Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 Hi.. Believe it or not things continue to progress with Bocott Steel. There are still a lot of bits to do, the grey roof is just placed on at the moment, it will be covered in the blue sheeting eventually. I've yet to complete the shunter maintenance shed too. Rolling stock is still minimal at the moment, but there are rumours that a Janus shunter may arrive at some point in the near future, the finance dept are just doing their sums. That's it for now. 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitbull1845 Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 (edited) Hi. Just a quick update.. I'm still moving forward with the layout, all be it slowly. Have to say thanks to Paul (PaulRhb) and Nigel (Melangoose) who have both been very supportive. The crane in the picture was donated by Nigel, and I'm very grateful. Paul popped down with his static grass equipment and has left it with me to have a play. So I think it's starting to look better. The Hobby has been so beneficial to me over the last couple of years where my life felt like it had hit rock bottom. I have limited funds so I've resorted to using odds and ends to make items, which I've actually found quite fun. That and the support from my modelling friends has been so helpful. Keep smiling.

Andrew P Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Looking EXCELLENT Scott, I do like lots of over grown sidings, so cant wait to do that to Seven Mills Sidings soon. Luckily I had some great modelling friends when I had similar problems back in the late 70's, No R M W back then, just good supportive mates to get me through it. AND soon I was smiling again, hahhah 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then use a hair trimmer to cut a swathe to rail level where the trains would have brushed it down. Or option 2, use a low height grass on the track area, then apply glue from the sleeper ends out and use longer strands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shudder to think what you could have done with more funds and fewer odds and ends. Following this thread has been very interesting, but Pete - are you going to put up some portacabin offices and maybe a grab crane for the scrap traffic siding? What was the boundary fencing from? regards Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
