Andrew P Posted April 14, 2022 Author Share Posted April 14, 2022 The Point Rods and Stools have arrived, so I can make a start on that job soon as well. Also the Ladders for the Harbour side. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted April 14, 2022 Author Share Posted April 14, 2022 I've also done a little to the Village this morning, with the Street Lamps and walls now in place. The walls around the cottage and Pub at the back will need some capping later. 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shedman Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Coming along beautifully, Andy. Keep it up. Looking forward to seeing how the point rodding works. Didn't you use Wills last time? Trevor 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor Thanks Trevor, And yes your right, I did use Wills, and I still have some jointy bits left, so will use them for around the Points and Crankie Angles etc. I just felt this was finer and more accurate. I used the Wills Rodding on my O Gauge Bala Town, and it didn't look wrong against the bigger toys. Edited April 14, 2022 by Andrew P 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold 5BarVT Posted April 15, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 15, 2022 Always good when trains move! Have to disagree with you about Hymeks: I like them (personal choice). I’m not sure how many got into the West Country as they were all allocated to Old Oak, Bath Road or Canton, at least in 1970 they were. Mind you I can’t see what would have been the small engine down there by then as many of the baby warships had gone and the class 25s hadn’t arrived. Since Trewithen is imaginary, it doesn’t matter anyway! Paul. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may run a Blue period at a later date, I do fancy Clay Hoods and a Blue 25 and 37, but that's a long way off at the moment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had about half a dozen when I had my German Layout years ago. I will get a Maroon one at some stage, even though it can't run alongside the steam stuff.

Warships on a German layout? 🤔 I’m guessing that was under rule 1 running unless you had Graf Spey, Tirpitz and Scharnhorst of course with a few Mockers overhead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were common as muck, we got the originals from there. 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWolf Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 You can tell that those locos are German a mile off. They used to have a kind of "house style" for everything sixty years ago. This is what happens when an aircraft factory builds a scooter. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) Yesterday I finished fitting the lights and doing the wiring, its so much easier as I can turn the boards onto their backs and stand up and do it. NOTE = The lights will only be on for evening photo shoots, and NOT during daylight hours or normal running.

Triumph Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 I'm enjoying the progress again Andy. The lights are looking good. I reckon that cottage needs a ladder to get to the pub though! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
