d winpenny Posted November 27, 2016 Author Share Posted November 27, 2016 Nothing to report since my last post currently pondering selling my haas on, I'm off through to olivias tomorrow to have a poke around and get one of my decoders reblown and maybe negotiate another to replace the one I'm removing from 209 but will probably involve moving on 068 which will leave me with 2 sheds, 2 tugs and 1 37. 3 of which will have sound so it's still not bad going I'm also thinking of modelling the dewsbury earles cement train so I may end up with something green although ews did also manage this flow for a time. I have also been thinking about the possibility of some scenery and some little cameos but I won't be getting any of those bits while Xmas and I might do those on a separate plank just to I can try out some different ideas without ruining the layout David 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus 37 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Morning David. Good to see your mojos making a return. If your still buying models that's a good sign. Looking forward to seeing the next project whatever that may be. Cheers Marcus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d winpenny Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Cheers guys appreciate your popping in to comment does help knowing people are interested in what I'm wittering on about I've a few bits I want to try out including a dirt road, thinking of modelling a lay by scene with a sandwich van and a selection of vehicles, so that means I'll have to find a Tarmac colour I'm happy with and that sort of thing I might go out and get some tester pots and some polyfilla and see how it pans out. Had to cancel my trip to olivias today I am going to try next week I certainly don't take much persuading into buying things. My problem is applying the ideas in my head which I have a lot of as quick( while still being to a good standard) because if I don't it frustrates me and I find it hard to concentrate on anything else David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Alister_G Posted November 28, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 28, 2016 Hi David, Really glad to see you back in a modelling mood, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next. That Northern 158 would fit right in at Grindleford! All the best Al. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d winpenny Posted November 29, 2016 Author Share Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Not gone out and bought anything yet but I thought I'd do a dry run and see what sort of space I'd need and here is the mock up https://flic.kr/p/P9Mpss Basically it's 4ft long by 16in wide between the running lines and the layby will be security fence followed by churned up grass from where the lorry said have parked over the curb, then the curb itself made using plasticard/struct then the layby wide enough for a lorry and about 2 lorries long with the sandwich van at the bottom end then a reasonably wide road then there is a gap at the other side could possibly create a start of a field or just another verge and a pavement maybe just 2 street lights it's not meant to be a major road so wouldn't be too well lit. Alternatively I could move the whole lot forward maybe the start of an embankment at the back or just some sort of detail trackside just don't want to over clutter it David Edited November 29, 2016 by d winpenny 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d winpenny Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Obviously no proper update as its not after Xmas but ive moved on my haas and 66068 and I might part with 60029 please message me if you're interested. I will be getting another tug to replace 29 I've not lost my marbles and the other funds will be for another sound decoder to replace the one out of 209 which is getting reblown to a 37 or a 60.

Andrew P Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Hi David, I hope your well, as there have been no up-dates for some while. I'd like to comment if I may on your roundy roundy, it looks fine but there seems to be little or no room for even a Hedgerow around the outside of the Track other than at the corners. Can you include a bit of a reverse curve at one side to remove the straitness of the Plan. All the best, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d winpenny Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Hi guys thanks for your interest I am still using the layout but mainly to just for giving stock a good run around any real progress is on hold for the time being getting married in May so I haven't got much time to spare or money at the moment. Hi Andy I do get where you coming from its being one of my bug bares a medium sized infrastructure project when I have some more time I think All the best David 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
