vitalspark Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 A bit of East Lancashire's L&Y in the original Washington DC. That's Washington, Ceremonial County of Durham not the American one. It's designed to be semi permanent so may see one or two exhibitions. Plenty of stock almost finished for it, but there is about sixty feet of random stone to hand carve and it's all been done by one person cos it's his baby. Progress is "in the right direction". "The Town" is just mocked up at the mo. We're aiming for something like this but probably lower town in stone and upper town in brick. Then there's the mills. Crowborough Street, c.1967 by Visual Resources @ MMU, on Flickr This is the standard he's working to. Std5onCrockD-008sm.jpg P Another stunning masterpiece from the north east..I can visualise the quality already. What are the details of the Standard 5 ..it is also stunning. Beautiful model that deserves a quality viaduct. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitalspark Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I'd prefer a class 100!!!!!! Its coming ..did I tell you I'm practicing retirement..if I can now just get Sue some meaningful employment it would allow me to properly 'retire'..to the attic and the bench. One of my Class 28s will be suitably weathered and run in hopefully for Glasgow…don't mention to Davy D! The Gloucester..I can guarantee it will be ready for the Larbert unveiling!

vitalspark Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 more action at Kingsbridge Regis from the old Bradford Barton books. parcels B&W f1a.jpg parcels B&W f2a.jpg Very very nice..weathered NB hydraulic is superb. Reminds me of the superb 'Hornsea Broadway' and 'Shenston Rd' EM layouts both from memory run 22s. Always liked these NB oddballs and can't believe its taking so long to produce the d/e 21 for us north of the border ..thought it would be a natural follow on!

Porcy Mane Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 What are the details of the Standard 5 ..it is also stunning. Basically the old Alan Gibson kit. Built to P4 with a dose of added detailing. I've passed on your compliment on to Mr Rick. The station throat viaduct section has been progressed over the last couple of days. I've told him it's had it's interwebby baptism so that should keep him on his toes. Here's another view of the Standard: Is that your Waldridge Incline 08 Porcy? Nah John. It's far too clean. The Waldridge/Pelton Fell shunter still needs all it's Tyne Yard radio externals fitting. That mod was done to the prototype around 1963-4 ish. This one must have just been out-shopped from Darlington Works and is having a run down to Croft on a running in turn. Looks like it will have to go back into shops to have some remedial work carried out in correcting that gap between the body and running plate! Don't quite know how but I somehow ended up with four Green 08's so this one was passed onto Axlebox. P 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
