RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted August 30, 2017 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted August 30, 2017 Good to see the HC sat in position. Will you need all of the segments? Or will you need more ? Not sure yet Stu. Depends on how I'm doing the scenic break at this point. I suspect it could well be more or less just two or three as it will be 'dark' in there. Remember the plastic 'curtain thingy' in the tunnel itself that was discussed some months back? Phil 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium 2ManySpams Posted August 30, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 30, 2017 So here is the non offending pic, followed by some offensive ones! Img_0461.jpg This loco, covered in filth and crude, chalked remarks, will be working the Branch in 1963/4. Today it is shunting a heavy Milk Train into the Up Yard; quite a task for such a dumpy Duck. Rob has a very colourful Fa##y Pluckit, I have an inoffensive and fully lined, ex works match box. Offensive Pic No. 1. This was an unboxed Ebay purchase some years back. It is DCC fitted and works (just), but my equipment can't read the CVs and so I have no idea what sort of Decoder is inserted and I can't change the settings (at the moment). It is supposed to be Spitfire but I challenge you to note the 'faults', not including the non fitment of 'detailing parts'; I shall have to acquire those. The coach(es) may look familiar to a Sheepish, Mutton Chops person from Welsh Wales? Img_0462.jpg Not quite so offensive Pic No. 2. Img_0463.jpg Ignore the arse end of the Hungry Caterpillar and admire the accommodation available in the FY. I've been seeing what I can fit in the various 'loops'. Apart from that all I've done is run in the Pannier and then fit a Zen 6 Pin Chip. The Chip came with two harnesses (an 8 to 6 and a 6 to 6) didn't have to use those) and a Stay Alive that I shall have to fit as this little beauty does not like long crossings and lots of frogs one after the other. Time for toast. Phil 34066 Spitfire? Interesting choice of cab and tender combination. There are definitely more appropriate identities for that combo, but of course you know that.

RMweb Premium St Enodoc Posted August 30, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 30, 2017 I think you mean 28.0833333333 mm gauge..... Only at Standard Temperature and Pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgman Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Well, I don't suppose we will see any at 28mm gauge on this thread either so can I grumble about that? I Sam Bardbrunel I beg to differ....My scratch built B & E R 4-4-0 is happy to show its face but that's all you will see at the moment ( some delicate surgery is taking place I'm sorry to say ! ) G.W.

The Blue Streak Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 It all looks smashing Phil, things are certainly on the move now. It's starting to look like a proper model railway.

There are definitely more appropriate identities for that combo, but of course you know that. Yes, except I wouldn't be too fussed about the cab. I'm not sure I'll keep this one but I do have a tender swap or renumbering plan for it if ICBA. I'm also worried about what on earth the person used for the Decoder!!!!!
