Andrew P Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hi Andy, Picked up a copy today after reading your post, looks good to me. Alan. Thanks Alan, I hoped I could do it justice, I have done all the pics on my Weathering Projects that have appeared over the last year or so but this is the first time I have attempted a main shoot with my Box Brownie.

RMweb Gold ChrisN Posted September 14, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 14, 2013 Andy, Just read your article in RM- good one mate. I loved the bit where Steve Flint said you phoned him and told him you had changed the layout and then at the end you phoned again to say that you had started an N gauge one. You must phone him every couple of weeks! Have you got any more articles to write to stop you getting bored as all your modelling stuff is away?

RMweb Gold Donw Posted September 14, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 14, 2013 Coupling at shows is easy make up a nice shunting pole look for a suitable kid in the audience and invite them to do the coupling/uncoupling small girls in particular are very dextrous. A hat with Shunter across could add to the fun. Me and Dave Burt hardly touched the controls at Thornbury when exhibiting Sparrows Wharf. With one on the controller and one doing the shunting we had them queing to have a go. You do need to tell them what to do as none of them had any idea about shunting.

Don Morning Don, Cheers for that, the problem I have is that I have Vari Focal lenses in my glasses and trying to line up the Shunting pole is a nightmare, I normally end up with an O Gauge wagon dangling on the end as I wave it around in the air in frustration.

Morning Dave, it will NOT be seen in public again as far as I know as the chap just wants it for a home layout, but Andy Y and Mike Wild have done some pics for articles one day and so it may appear in print again. I took a few pics at the weekend and once I have done todays chores I will sit down and down load them and stick some on here.
