sf315 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Hello all Thanks Paul for a great weekend. I can confirm that the facilities in 207002 are great. Was thinking Jaffa cake livery for the other side but what about connex livery. Thanks Steve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongRail Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Paul came back through Tonbridge on the train yesterday noticed that the name board with NSE flash along the bottom is still in place but is so faded you can hardly see it I took a couple of photos but you can read the name board. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyddrail Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 You sure you have enough stock? Would have liked to have seen this I am constantly reminded that over the years I ran less MUs as I introduced freight and departmental trains. It is true, and this year with doing several NSE displays I was surprised how many MUs I have built over the years. I most likely have over twice the number of NSE units that I can fit on the layout, and that does not include blue/grey NSE signed units!

Steve, I have been thinking of painting the rest of the mobile home this summer (including the other half of the NSE side), Jaffa is on the list plus a few other ideas, but not connex. Cheers.

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted August 3, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) Good call Clive Missed you at Pauls this year. Steve. Hi Steve Last weekend in July marked as Lyddrail in my work diary. Who booked work for the 3rd weekend in July? Who then read the dates for this year's Lyddrail? Who feels like a right pillock? Might get it right next year. :no: Edited August 3, 2016 by Clive Mortimore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyddrail Posted August 3, 2016 Author Share Posted August 3, 2016 Hi Paul Surely it should be British Railways Southern Region Multiple Unit Green Clive, I hadn't thought of green, that will go on the list. Thanks. You were mentioned several times over the weekend, some in a good way! Cheers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongRail Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Paul The CD with photos on arrived thanks very much they will be very useful.

Lyddrail Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Railex has come and gone. Had a few issues with the layout, only significant one was a point blade break on the point into the Jubilee making it out of use for the weekend. Extra NSE units were running due to the 30th anniversary. There was much to see on site in the various sheds and facilities. Took pics of the JCB that loaded coal in the steam engines and a nice civils crane. JCB below. Crane in siding. Last show of the year for TWY is Broadstairs on 26th & 27th November. Cheers. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyddrail Posted October 31, 2016 Author Share Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) The Winter exhibition season is apon us, I have started to put the layout up at home to carry out some repairs and testing. The next show is a local one for me at Broadstairs on 26th & 27th November. Started the repairs by replacing a broken point in the fiddle yard (the one above the blue arrow) and removed the defective Jubilee catch point. Got to buy a new point to completed that repair. Pictures below. Got to test the signal supply and the semaphore signal next after putting the rest of the layout up. Cheers.

No cameras with me today,just the mobile phone. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyddrail Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 The Broadstairs show went well. After a week break I put the layout up at home with full stock, plus a tidy up for a magazine photo shoot last Friday. Some pics of my own below.
