NSE Mule Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Richard did ask if I was interested in coming to Barnstaple next year and I didn't say no. That gives me 12 months to get my network 4TC ready then 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted September 7, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted September 7, 2015 Evening all, Well now the summer is over and its not as hot in the conservatory its time to get the modelling stuff out and find my mojo. There's plenty to do to the stock that runs on Tidworth and some outstanding jobs to be completed on the layout itself. Tidworth's second exhibition appearance is scheduled for Sat 17th & Sun 18th October 2015 at the Christchurch MRC show at The Bournemouth School for Girls BH8 9UJ, which gives me 6 weeks to get ready! Nothing to show yet but I'll post some picture updates once the layout is set up for 'testing' etc. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
D9JEF Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Ian, Looking good. Have you got any close ups of the couplings on the pallet wagons? Hope all goes well in exhibition prep Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted September 7, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hi Jeff No closeup but I will get you some once I get them out as they are top of the list for heavy weathering! However, it is just a Bachmann coupling glued to the bogie after the Lima loop was removed. Will you be with Oulton next weekend at Woking by chance?

Andrew P Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hi Ian some great pics of the Layout, good luck with the next show, at least you'll know what to expect and have a better idea of what to run. I always say, have a Loco READY TO MOVE, in case someone comes along to have a look and your doing something else. All the best, Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Ian, Thanks for that. Unfortunately I can't make the Woking Show - it is the only one I'm missing... Wigan in October is next for me. Enjoy the show Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriscleveland Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hi Ian looks like a weathering session is in hand I do like the static grass on your layout I know what I will be doing next Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted September 30, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hi Chris You're right I have been weathering some of my wagons for the layout and making up loads for some of the opens. All of a sudden its only two weeks to the Christchurch show and not a lot of spare time to get more of the outstanding jobs done in time, but it's looking better than its first appearance so continual improvement is the way forward I think. I'll be on the MidHants all weekend sprucing up Lion on Saturday for its last running day of the year on Sunday when I'll be in the front coach for three round trips from Alton at 10.50, 12.50 & 14.50! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chriscleveland Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Hi Ian Know the feeling time flies and before you know it its deadline day. I have to get the airbrush out once I find what I did with the ballast tub to complete track work always misplace stuff as long as you are making progress that's the main thing unlike myself ripping up areas I took short cuts and ah nice I hear the 27 has vanished again !! you will have to send some photos of lion out on the line Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Temeraire Posted October 1, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted October 1, 2015 Just remembered I promised some close ups of the pallet van couplings for Jeff. Bogie showing the addition of a Bachmann coupling and pocket in place of the oversize Lima loop. Looking down showing the position of the coupling in relation to the van end. Two vans coupled together, much closer but still able to negotiate 2nd radius curves if necessary. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimleygrid Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Great photos of Tidworth Paul, love the 33 and TC. Ian, I always liked the UKF vans, remember seeing them locally: 47320 arriving at Witham from Braintree by Justin Perkins, on Flickr OCAs were also used: 37354 leaves Braintree yard by Justin Perkins, on Flickr Thought that might be of interest as you could also have OCAs being used on this working, gives a bit of variety. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cracking weathering on the wagons by the way! No worries Alex they've only had the'treatment' recently in preparation for Christchurch so I don't think they've been pictured before.
