P.C.M Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Looking really good Ian, What Static grass applicator did you use? I am thinking of getting one. Cheers Peter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted June 15, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Peter, I can answer that as it's my one. It's the £25.99 version here http://www.finescalemodelworld.co.uk/static-grass-applicators-19-c.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C.M Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Peter, I can answer that as it's my one. It's the £25.99 version here http://www.finescalemodelworld.co.uk/static-grass-applicators-19-c.asp Thanks Paul, That looks alright. there seems to be two types. One I saw on ebay was the cup type but I suppose at the end of the day they do the same thing. Cheers Peter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold PaulRhB Posted June 15, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 15, 2015 Ian and I both used a paper cone taped to the bottom to give a narrow spout like the noch one comes with and there's no reason for big areas not to make a container that increases the capacity of fibres. You can just find a suitable tube or make one from card and sit it in the sieve and tape it to it temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted June 25, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted June 25, 2015 Afternoon all Tidworth has been set up for play the last week or so and tonight is due to be visited by some of RMweb's finest in the shape of pitbull and Beresford jct plus a possible appearance of Hampshire Hog. Just had a play with taking pics with the iPad as my camera is elsewhere so one or two pics to see how they come out on here. As you know I've been playing with static grass recently but the track/ballast has also now been weathered down with paints to pretty good effective think? I maybe just need to add a little more black where the locos tend to stand around for periods of time. Off to have a bite to eat before firing up the layout and making sure all is well before the visitors arrive, perhaps there will be more pics later whilst we're "playing" 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSE Mule Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Hi Rich Many thanks for your comments, but I have to admit that both the thumper and 4TC aren't mine but on loan from RMweb friends! However, both I'm pretty sure are DC kits and relatively easy to construct I am told. I have a Bachmann thumper awaiting painting and finishing including a third coach and may have my own 4TC at some point too. You maybe able to come and say hello next July (2016)! Are you heading down into the West Country in 2016 then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted June 25, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted June 25, 2015 Are you heading down into the West Country in 2016 then? Richard did ask if I was interested in coming to Barnstaple next year and I didn't say no. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beresford Junction Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Thanks to Ian for the enjoyable evening of trains, chat, coffee and muffins. Some photos of the proceedings (after we'd left it with a bit of a traffic jam) And here Mr Speedy on the shunter.... Phil 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitbull1845 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Yes Thanks Ian and Phil for a pleasant evening. The only thing they've forgotten to mention is that tonight was its last appearance in the NSE guise. It's now going current scene! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hi Guy's great to see you had such a nice evening, that's one thing George T and I miss is an evening running / coffee session as we used to do when we lived closer to each other down South, Gosport / Waterlooville. It makes all the difference to seeing how other people operate your own Layout and I find that at Shows, when I went for a break and came back my other operators had different ideas to me and that make a refreshing change sometimes. Enjoy and more pics please. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted June 26, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted June 26, 2015 Evening all I didn't take any pics last night as it turned out but I've had a play this evening and snapped a few for your enjoyment! 37671 waits for the incoming Temeraire to depart the yard. Tre Pol and Pen having departed 50003 runs round its stock. Temeraire awaits time and a path as 33108 ambles in with a short rake of empty ballast wagons. The 33 waits in the loop for the shunter and 47187 has returned from the sidings at Ludgershall after depositing its train, and now prepares to leave with the UKF empties. The shunter has moved the ballast wagons and 33108 has moved up to to the ground signal, as you can see 47187 has the road instead. 33108 now powers away with the all clear. The Crompton reappears a while later having collected some MoD wagons from the Ludgershall sidings. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Ian, They don't but having said that I quite liked the class 70s, though it not enough to make me change my time period. The layout is looking great by the way. Cheers Peter.
