Arnington Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Looking good Arnie, I like the way you've done the removed depot plaque. I really must get a Transrail/dutch 37! I've got a mainline 37 coming. Have a good day tomorrow, go grab some bargains. Some of us have to work... Cheers Scott Hi Scott, Thanks mate Had a good trip to Ally Pally, bloody cold though! I did get a couple of bargins( a couple of locos) and a late Bday present plus some other bits. I'll post some pics later of the new arrivals. Cheers Arnie 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitbull1845 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Some nice new additions there Arnie, I was toying with the 47 when I saw the price drop.. I also like the thumper, it could almost be my guilty pleasure.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Peter, Thanks, yeah i had a look at the pictures of your weathered BR blue ped on your thread as inspiration for the oil stains on the side of the dutch 31 I thought you recreated them spot on.

I also like the thumper, it could almost be my guilty pleasure.. I got the 47 from the signal box stand for a very resonable £60, due to the box being a bit tatty but the loco is perfect! Just gotta figure out how to replicate those strange yellow sockets above the marker lights on the prototype though now. The thumper was also my guilty pleasure, it's a great model. I've just ordered a Legoman chip to go in it Edited March 26, 2013 by Arnington 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they are both very nice models. As Cromptonnut says the Thumper is a Kernow exclusive, i quite liked the Connex Livery but i don't think it was to popular with alot of folk?

Arnington Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Heres a few pics of the thumper on the rarely seen other side of the layout and also a pic of 47972 which ive added the sockets above the marker lights to. And a couple of other pics of some other workings also. Cheers Arnie Edited March 29, 2013 by Arnington 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 3 locos were painted in that livery I believe, the other two were a pair of 20's. Respray project?... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember seeing it on a speedlink at Tinsley yard one night and immediately behind it in the train was a deltic, 55015 Tulyar. That was 25 years ago! I've gone slightly faint...

RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted March 28, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 28, 2013 Evening Paul Thumper looks really great, I just wish they would release a 3-car in NSE! Pics looking great but we should see more of the 'other side' mate. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
60026to Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I'm really taken with the Bachmann range of SR units but they wouldn't really suit my layout and that Connex one looks really good. I too remember seeing that grey and red 47 at Crewe in 1992 (I think). Some very nice looking stock you have there weathered up which is something that I should do but haven't the bottle. Good stuff. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Legoman sound chip arrived yesterday and i fitted it into the thumper last night, it sounds great! I may start to take some pics of the other side of the layout then, i've just never been to happy with it as that side features my first ever attempts at ballasting and weathering track!
