    usually the bared wire bit is on the inside so that you are already trespassing when you get injured so you can't claim for the injury !! that's the reason military bases have razor wire inside the fence and not the outside

    appreciate that gangs are smaller and time is tight, but how do you explain leaving piles of scrap in access areas, and the piles of rail and sleepers on the trough route and in front of location cab? no need for it, it just make life harder for every one else rant over
  11. ess1uk
    that looks cool
  12. ess1uk
    i'll second that my all time favourite is rail or piles of sleeper on the trough route lazy p way

    they do still have to work to planning rules, they can't just plonk a mast any where they like they have changed from taller masts to 15m masts though to appease the locals, meaning there are now more of them needed to get the coverage required

    cheers for that time to get the transfers on order then and keep a look out for some ladders etc

    I'm not 100% sure that is Network Rail kit

    the masts vary due to planning rules but the REB is the same for a GSMR site, see my pictures the other REBs (also made by Elliot) are for the FTN (fixed telecom network) and do vary in size depending on how much equipment needs to be housed

    Relocatable Equipment Building, made by Elliot did you scratch build the mast too?

    very impressive mast very good not quite the right type of REB (too big) but I like it where did you get it from?
  20. ess1uk
    just wondered if any one out there is modelling the GSMR masts that are becoming ever more common??

    what colour red should i be using for the sole bar? Or does it matter as it will be weathered anyway?

    the only way it might get some use is it will save the queue to get round the A14 to Milton to use the park and ride to the Grafton centre as you will be able to board further north. other than that can't see many locals switching on a daily basis.

    whilst on a course recently in the Axis in Birmingham (Atkins building) i noticed they had screens with lots of lovely fancy stuff they had consulted on or built all very exotic and lovely, then a picture of the misguided busway flashed up and i just had to laugh and ask rather loudly who thought it was a good idea to be associated with such a scheme!!

    trees look brilliant, much more realistic just add that bit more depth

    i've heard it called several things in my time, even by the locals spent a good few weeks there doing my bit for the ERTMS scheme
