They look great!

Bit of a stupid question (probably!) but the ad says N gauge and then 1:150, does this mean that the wheel sets are to the Nm gauge? I thought continental N was 1:160?? Best regards, Jeremy

Lovely weathering job Dave. You have a nice fleet of stock matey. Best regards, Jeremy

He's a regular poster on the N Gauge Forum. His second layout after Sustenbahn is practically finished and looks amazing. Plenty of photos on there with his continually growing collection of rolling stock.

Morning all, The APT is in Hornbys new 2020 catalogue. 5 car and 7 car sets are on offer with two car add on sets. Looks like it will be resurrected after all! Exciting times ahead! Best regards, Jeremy

Good morning, Here's another, this time from May 1981. DMU set class 117 L432 arrives at Par, Penzance bound. 37203 lurks in the background. Best regards, Jeremy

Good evening, Not posted for a while so here is another from the vault! 37196 "Tre Pol and Pen" coasts through Par station mid 1980's. Best regards, Jeremy

I would assume 1:160 being swiss. I'll need to go back and check that I think. Chap in the Swiss Railways forum section on this website replied to me.

Hi, I've found out that the sleeper spacing is approximately 3.75mm in N scale. How do I set this up for plain track in templot? I've looked at the timbering data but not sure what to input here. Any further help would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, Jeremy

Evening all, I subscribe to the excellent French YouTube channel called “Aiguillages”. It has loads of great content with their latest entry being of a new model railway shop for N gauge modellers based in Yverdon les Bains. It’s a husband and wife team, both work for the CFF with the shop being run in between their shift patterns, and it has predominantly Swiss items. There’s also some 3D stuff under development and also some nice rhb stuff which you probably can’t get anywhere else. Worth a look. https://www.lavitrinedun.ch/ Best regards, Jeremy

Count me in for one of these when you have the final version ready!!!! Awesome!!! Best regards, Jeremy

Evening all, I’m about to start designing a small Swiss layout on templot and was wondering if anyone knew the prototypical sleeper spacing for Swiss SBB standard gauge track. The layout will eventually be built in N gauge with hand made track but really want the sleeper spacing to look as close as possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Beat regards, Jeremy

That’s an impressive fiddle yard! Best regards, Jeremy

Thanks Jim! So that would make it around 3.9mm spacing if I were to go with the continental 1/160 then.

Afternoon all, I was wondering if anyone could help please. I'm going to have a bash at hand building some track for a small SBB swiss layout using Templot and I was wondering if anyone knew what the prototypical spacing was for the sleepers. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Many thanks in advance. Best regards, Jeremy

Looks great Simon. Have a great show! Best regards, Jeremy

Morning all, I was just wondering if anyone could help me please with setting up correct sleeper spacing for swiss SBB practice in N scale on Templot. There is the FS160 setting for french practice (I think) but I wasn't sure if the sleeper spacing on that setting would be correct for swiss practice. I've done some research but can't find anything although there is one chap that has set it up for 1:87 3.5mm/ft. Hope some one can help. Many thanks in advance. Best regards, Jeremy

Simply stunning! Best regards, Jeremy

Ahhhh, should have cropped the Azuma class 800 out. We only need to see the 90! Best regards, Jeremy

Morning all! Not really Kernow today but a bit of nostalgic "Kernow yesterday". I stumbled across these fabulous videos this week and thought I would share. So pop the kettle on, make yourselves a cup of tea, and soak up the nostalgia. Class 37's and 50's galore! None of that Hitachi nonsense! (and not a 66 in sight!) Best regards, Jeremy

Morning chaps! Excellent announcemennt and very exciting. I'll be ordering a set or two. Also, they would look great with a MK3 rake and my Intercity liveried HST DVT. For those of you who are talking about alternative rakes. Here is a selection of videos of them on test in and around Grantham. Incidentally, this guys channel is well worth watching as he has loads of videos of the ECML in and around Grantham mid 80's onwards. Good luck with the project! Best regards, Jeremy

Blimey Simon, you are all over this weathering lark at the moment! Wagons and locos looking awesome and really fitting into the landscape well. Hope to see the layout in the flesh sometime soon. Best regards, Jeremy

Lovely stuff Simon! Best regards, Jeremy

Hi Grahame, Really enjoying he thread. This popped up on my youtube feed this morning and thought it may be of interest. Show some of the surrounding buildings which may be of help. Best regards, Jeremy

Hi David, Haven't checked in for a while but love how the scenery is coming together. With the OHLE down, could even be the Great Western mainline! The 47 looks great in its worn condition, cracking but of weathering! Keep up the good work. Best regards, Jeremy
