A Nod To Brent - a friendly thread, filled with frivolity, cream teas and pasties. Longing for the happy days in the South Hams 1947.

And a 2800 Class

Early autumn in the South Hams and we see Newton based 74xx class 7427 on a short trip with some wagons of stone.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Does anyone know of a photo shewing any 64xx's in wartime black ?

[Captain Kernow]

I do like the 74XX, Robin. Is that one yours or do I recall reading that it is a visiting loco? Any chance of a close-up of the buffer beams, please?

[gwrrob]

 do I recall reading that it is a visiting loco? 

 

Well remembered, it's on loan from Mark [46444] of this parish.

Been some lovely snaps on here of late Robin. Nice to see 7427 at work.

 

I’ve about 11 PoWSides Teign Valley Granite wagon kits to finish in my workbench & the moment funnily enough.

 

Cheers,

 

Mark

You know where to send them when you finish them....

These Hornby jobbies can look reasonable to a blind man on a galloping horse with judicious weathering.

Why does the horse need judicious weathering?

Probably to cover up some of the "mess" it leaves behind !

You've seen my weathering then.

[toboldlygo]

The joys of scratch building brake rigging, when the accessory pack for the Hornby Hall is unavailable

Talking of weathering and always nice to give credit where due, so here's Glenn's weathering work on my oil tanks,that are being shunted carefully by 1363.
