He did say I would probably need two though for the job.....HaHa. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 That's sat down in there really well mate. BTW Sorry I missed you at the Gresley and Wychnor MRG Open Weekend today, remember were doing it again all day tomorrow as well. Thanks Andy. Yeah, it was a shame I missed you. Unfortunately I've already got plans for tomorrow. We will meet up soon though especially as we might be your way quite regularly as Di was rather impressed with the Riverside at Branston. Had a superb meal there and Anthony was rather impressed with watching the trains go by. A Lovely setting by the river just a shame it wasn't a bit warmer. See you soon Cheers Marcus 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 Hi Marcus Great to finally put a face to a name. The shed is a masterpiece which belongs to the landscape. Hi Duncan Great to meet you too. As you say it's always nice to put a name to the face. Had a very enjoyable afternoon. Just found your layout and work bench topics in your signature so I shall definitely be having a look in soon. All the best Cheers Marcus 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 80 pages and 2000 posts! You must be doing something right, mate The shed looks great now it's in position, and again your concrete is some of the best I've seen modelled. Here's to the next 1000 posts Al. Thanks Al. I can't believe I've got to 2000 posts. Never dreamt that I would make that far. Don't worry there's still plenty to come yet. Thanks again for the compliments. Cheers Marcus 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.C.M Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Hi Peter Must admit I've seen Hood a few times now and the Intercity livery suits it really well. I agree LL was probably the best although Defiance in RF General was my personal favourite. Also in my little world the trial was a success and its use became a little more wide spread spending a short spell in the Peak Forest area on trip workings. So keep a look out. HaHa. Cheers Marcus I never got to see 50149, but did hear about the trials on stone workings out of Westbury. I did do quite well but it's downfall was that class 50's have no sanders though I think they did have them when built. It would have been nice if the trail had worked out and who knows they may have be allocated back to the Midland, so look forwards to seeing one on Peak Dale. Cheers Peter.

I never got to see it in its original RF livery but the Class 50 Soceity did a superb job of repainting it back into the livery whilst at the West Somerset Railway. It just goes to show how well thought out the sector livery was as it managed to look smart on all the locos that carried it. I shall be up in the loft later so I'm sure I can roster it to some thing. Cheers Marcus 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus 37 Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Your building looks awesome Marcus. Will it stay white? I have to agree the concrete is fantastic. The base colour will stay white for the time being until it gets weathered. I won't do it yet until I've perfected the finish I want on something else. Don't particularly want to ruin it just yet! The building at Peak Forest itself is still very white but does appear to have a light greyish weathing which I guess is just from the stone dust. Any tips mate would be greatly appreciated as always. Cheers Marcus 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Did manage to put some static grass around yesterday just to blend everything in a bit. We did have a nice running session yesterday which Anthony's done some video footage of. He'll post it up as soon as he's edited it. Meanwhile a couple of pictures 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
