Afternoon,

 

Had a little arrival yesterday in the form of Hornby's Sentinel shunter. I've just chipped it up, which was a little bit more tricky than i imagined and then gave it a little run on the layout. I'm going to be removing the branding on the side and changing it to something a bit more appropriate soon or i was thinking of naming it... maybe after the wife :)

 

Here's a pic.

 

Cheers

Sentinel looks the part - a good release by Hornby - reminds me of this near us on the Ribble Steam  handling the 6E32 6M32 Lindsay Tanks on Preston Docks.

Evening,

 

A new Colas beast arrived at Arnash today in the form of 70801 and was put straight to work on engineers traffic. Also WCRC have hired out part of the depot for stabling and maintenance and 33029 was caught shunting around the depot area. 08921 and 70003 were also captured while i was up having a play.

 

Cheers

 

Arnie

Hi Arnie,

I am missing the blue stuff though that 33029 is a beast, it's been dowm to Eastleigh a fair bit recently. I saw a video clip the other day of it shunting at Totton yard.

 

Cheers Peter.

Hi Arnie,

Loving the loco roster, the colas 70 looks superb. I'm still looking for a WC 33...   

 

Hi Peter, I am still here, but like you my time is more limited now. 4 children are really eating into my "me time".  Thats one of the reasons for the new project "Campbell Road".

 

Would be good to meet up when you're over.

Afternoon,

After seeing a few Youtube clips and pics lately of WCRC Class 47's and 37's moving stored mail vans around i thought i would have ago at a couple of vans for my WCRC 47 to pull round the layout. I have also nearly finished a couple of YKA wagons.
