Andrew P Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Cheers Richard and Ray, thanks for the nice comments. I have been around and set T up in its new home this afternoon, tested the locos and and said a fond farewell. As for my next project, I will now concentrate on Fiddlers Yard, its first outing will still be a work in progress on 30th Nov / 1st Dec at our Clubs open weekend. I then have a few Class 50's, 47, 20 and 25;s in Blue to find a home for, I feel an Apple Lane or Pear Tree Road MPD coming on, (cue, Orchard Road copy, hahhaha) :no: :no: :no: .

Bodgit I don't know about that - copyright and all that! Just kidding, that's what all seem to do, is to take inspiration and ideas from other layouts, then adapt to suit our own needs. Nice to see that Orchard Road has inspired others in their own modelling. Anyway, my new layout Acacia Avenue is heavily inspired by another layout and Orchard Road similarily inspired by Hendre Lane .... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Sasquatch Posted November 16, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 16, 2013 Great Layout. Enjoyed the layout tour video very much especially as I don't get to shows with british layouts. I'll slowly work my way through all your layout threads over the weekend they're great! My layouts are in storage at present meaning that I can't attend the local show this year but it will give me a chance to chat with the other exhibitors for once. Regards Shaun.

GWR00N Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hi Andy, I've just finished looking through the threads on St Budoc and Trebudoc. I just wanted to say thank you, I was looking for some inspiration and ideas on a small layout to work on. Those have done the trick and given me some very good pointers. Thanks again.

Andrew P Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 Hi Ron, glad I could help, Trebudoc was in the October Railway Modeller and will be in BRM and Hornby Mag in the near future. All the best and happy modelling. Andy 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack00 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Andy. Quick question, where did you get the "Rmweb operator" sign from seen in the photo above? Or is it a home brew? Looks smart Jack Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks smart Jack Hi Jack, it was from the RM Web open day at Stafford a couple of years ago, Andy Y was going to try and get some more done for members who exhibit layouts that are on here so it may be worth asking the question. I wouldn't mind if I had to pay a small price PLUS postage as they are good quality plastic and a good advert for RM Web. Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Nick Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Hi Andy. I have just come upon your thread which is really excellent .

Andrew P Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Hi Andy. I have just come upon your thread which is really excellent . Its funny, I'm a Derbyshire lad in Plymouth modelling LMS and you are Plymouth lad living in Derbyshire modelling GWR! Hi Nick, I bet you don't know where the Trebudoc name comes from do you. Well I was born in St Budeaux, Plymouth, and in doing some research I found out that the area was founded by a French Monk and its original name was St Budoc (the name I gave to my first O Gauge Layout). It then went through many name changes to end up with St Budeaux. As I had used St Budoc, and I still wanted a Devon / Cornish name, (I hadn't decided on the exact location of said Layout at that stage) I simply put a Tre at the front to form Trebudoc. I may well sell all my Midland Stock do another West Country Layout one day as I love the little Prairies and Panniers. Who knows! it may end up being TLGP, watch this space.

RMweb Gold Donw Posted April 13, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 13, 2014 I fully understand why you sold Trebudoc and the need to be rational about your stock, however that accepted Trebudoc was one of your best and I think George enjoyed doing the station building.

Andrew P Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 Hi Don, and yes George did enjoy building the Station and Signal Box. He has been on the Dog and Bone again this evening asking when WHEN were going to do another joint project. He made such a good job of it that he now has a lot to live up to. Andy York did such a wonderful job with pics as well and that helped set the layout apart. My pics that I took for the Railway Modeller article in October last year were good by my standards but with Andy's added smoke and background it just enhanced it that bit more. Another Branch Terminus? We will see. Bodge Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeT Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hello Bodgit, Yes l think a re-building of 'Trebudoc' in 00 sounds like a plan, but with 'Ashcombe' and 'Bitton' on going where are we to find the time ?? Clueless George Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Andrew P Posted October 8, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2014 Hi All, whilst there is a lul on Bitton whilst waiting for the stuff to come out of storage I thought I would post some possibly unseen pics of Trebudoc on here. I say possibly unseen, as these are the pics taken by our very own ACE photographer Andy Y of this parish for BRM, so if you didn't get the BRM with it in, and missed the pics, here they are. 21 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Donw Posted October 8, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 8, 2014 Wow great photos. I love the shot of the 45 at the platform. Typical of small branches at the end of steam - no passengers in sight. Fortunately the sound of the loco just sitting there with the blower gently keeping the fire going is something I haven't forgotten. I can hear the loco with the sounds of the doors and all the miscellaneous noises of a small station. Good pictures evoke so much more. This layout is the one that drew me to admire your work Andy.

67A Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Hi Andy, Simply marvellous!..............Marvellous layout photographed marvellously! Better make sure Bitton exceeds the above standards or there will be questions! And I don't want to hear any of those 'O' -v- 'OO' excuses okay!
