P.C.M Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Nice pic Pete, any idea of the date? I've found a few pics of it on the stabling point at Exeter as well as DVD footage, with a heavy coat of 'weathering' that I'll be using for inspiration to dirty Ramilies up soon. http://www.class50.com/c50_zoom.php?img=1320021039000 http://www.class50.com/c50_zoom.php?img=1320020980000 Hi Ian, Some very nice pic to work from, I might have a better look at that website when I get the chance. Date of pic is 15.3.90. The last time I saw 019 later in 1990 it was well dirty. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted November 24, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 24, 2013 Morning all Last night during "reality TV time" I retreated to the sanctuary of the loft and Ramilies made her debut on Exford Park in a newly weathered guise and I recorded the event for posterity! 50019 creeps towards a red light at Exford Park station with a short rake of (Ahem...ex-works) empties for Riverside Yard. After getting a yellow Ramilies ambles along the relief line past the signal centre and you can see more of my weathering attempt! I aim to spend some time in the loft today as I have a points failure at a critical point and I have a mini rmweb playday here on Friday so need to get it sorted as I'm away until Thursday evening, so there may be more pics later.

Satan's Goldfish Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 This is always one of my favourite layouts to see new pictures of. Fantastic work Ian, 'Ramilies' really looks the part. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitbull1845 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Good work Ian, Ramilies looks very at home. Looking forward to Friday! Sorry I've been a bit quiet of late, the spare time I thought I would get has never happened... Hob nobs or choc digestives? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted November 24, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 24, 2013 Hob nobs or choc digestives? Both, plus everyone's favourite Bourbons? I hope I get back on time from Ireland on Thursday to get the bacon and rolls as well! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beresford Junction Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Both, plus everyone's favourite Bourbons?

Not quite December yet (although we have the tree on the front of the house already), so how about some Mince Pies? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted November 25, 2013 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted November 25, 2013 Evening all The errant point has been replaced and the track made good, plus two or three sticky point motors were sorted and a few locos lubricated so all should be good for the visitors on Friday. I couldn't help taking some more pics of my latest creations whilst in the loft so bear with me and I promise no more for a while! After depositing the earlier train in Riverside Yard 50019 (No 1 end) is now pictured on the fuel point. A wider view of '19 on the fuel road. Ramilies (No 2 end). Sorry for the overkill I liked all three pics and couldn't decided on which to leave out! Further up the yard fellow DCWA machine 50036 is seen between duties. 50019 is now joined by 47706 for fuelling ready for the running day on Friday. That's it no more Ramilies pics until at least Friday, I'm off to Ireland in the morning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimleygrid Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Superb Ian, Ramilies looks right at home at Exford Park. Loving the photos of her on shed, great work. Always nice to see Victorious too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satan's Goldfish Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 You can never provide us with too many photo's! (famous last words) Personally, i have a soft spot for shots of services coming off the branch and across the crossovers onto the mainline What are the chances of an up-to-date version of this classic from Page 1?

R.Langley Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Been following this topic from the start, and I must say it really is fantastic. Such a diverse range of stock and just looks "right". Also, it's now making me reconsider whether to get give Heljan 47s another chance... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you sir for your kind comments and your continued interest in my ramblings. Although diverse its just as it was around 1990, I just model my memories from that time, so I'm glad it looks 'right'! Give the Heljans a chance apart from 'head-on' they look right to me and you can't fault the running qualities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melangoose Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hi Ian You've done a fantastic weathering job on 47706 and 50019 Ramillies, look forward to seeing them in the flesh tomorrow. Nigel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
