RMweb Gold Herbert Nigel Posted December 19, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 19, 2015 I'm somewhat concerned at the outbreak of green mould on Harlaxton Road bridge. Could someone get the CCE's office to check it out please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LNER4479 Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) That looks really good. The layout continues to take shape, and become ever more realistic. Thanks very much! Although I'll always like messing about with trackwork & signals n stuff, it's nice to give some attention to other aspects at the moment. I'm somewhat concerned at the outbreak of green mould on Harlaxton Road bridge. Could someone get the CCE's office to check it out please? Ah, yes ... I wonder who was gonna spot that first! A blob of plaster got on one of me fingers and I didn't notice until... Edited December 19, 2015 by LNER4479 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Fox 34F Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 A blob of plaster is nothing! The real bridge has many outbreaks of Nature on its brickwork. As a fellow Yellow Belly, I can confirm that we have no problem with shear drops. Many a time have I missed the bottom step when descending from a Locomotive or Brakevan.

Popular Post LNER4479 Posted December 22, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) Trip to Ormesby last night. Did remember to take some pictures - unfortunately I forgot to take the camera so crummy mob hone pics only A studious Craig is working on the roadway leading away from the cattle dock. Meanwhile, the extra ground cover (setts - not cobbles!) has gone in on the remaining area in front of the granary warehouse (bottom left). Apparently, I gave an incorrect reference to the source of these sheets - so to correct that error, they are downloadable from http://www.modelrailwayscenery.com/ My modest contribution to this feverish activity is the loading dock area (where the output from Ruston & Hornsby / Aveling Barford was loaded onto rail vehicles). Apologies for the poor quality of pic. I'll take some better pics once the boards are all reassembled back at base. Finally - for now - the 'star moment'. Paul B brought in the work he has been doing on the detachable board that backs on to the station approach road. Work in progress at the moment (eg garden details to be added) but the Belvoir Baby Carriages building is just wonderful work - and all based on a zoomed in snatch glimpse(!) of a chance aerial photo from the Britainfromabove website.

RMweb Gold Market65 Posted December 22, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 22, 2015 They are looking so good. When the layout is reassembled, it will be so realistic. All the work is coming along so well, and it is forever amazing how all the different parts add together to create such realism. With regards, Rob.

gr.king Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Does Einstein know about this, or would Sir Isaac have got hit in a rather tender part of his anatomy rather than having something fall on his bonce.

Yes, working on the railway - but it's now getting to be lots of little things rather than any one single major project as in previous years. That includes some loco projects - one of which is a surprise package - which I'll leave you in suspense about just for the time being! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
