  3. Thanks for the info... ah yes now you mention it i can see the differences in 156's and 153's profile and cab ends. Impressive scratchbuild Will look out for the articals in the past mag releases. Thanks. Jack.
  4. Did you use Peter Clark kits 156 to create the 153? Or is it a scratchbuilt one? Looks really good Jack.
  5. Thats impressive new gen DMU's in 7mm is always a good talking point. Any info on the layout and stock? Thanks for sharing Jack.

  13. Appreciate the detailed reply Bill. It looks a good technique and versitile for cambers/curve allawances. I will have to try something similar as 'RTR' in my opinion is limited and a little dictating, similar to what you said about the points at the weekend your free to have them at any angle you wish. All the best. Jack.
  14. The fencing looks very good Bill. Sorry if you have already mentioned it but what is the platform core constructed with...foam board? I never know what to use for platforms..! Cheers Jack.
  15. Bill. Was great to finally put a face to the name. And the layout is super cant believe how everything flows so well. Thanks for letting me have a test drive too although rather rusty with point and isolation control. Look forward to August and creedyford... All the best. Jack.
  16. Marc I totally agree. We all like to see trains with a lengthy nature fly past at a scale speed of 70. But in reality its a small shunting layout or even diorama/boxfile that has potential to hold details that people don't necessarily see the first time they look. The possibilities are endless and unique which draws people in. Cheers Jack
  17. Thanks mark glad your enjoying st.clemens' progress. I built a parkside 7mm ex-LNER 21ton hopper and at first it was alot of head scratching and getting to grips with the terminology. But complete and weathered its satisfying. KMRC have some great stuff lined up and as you said the potential is better than ever. -JH is amazing work and gives me a feel of a hot summers evening in some photos. And the tardis effect, keep forgetting JH is the size it is! Jack.
  18. Lovely stuff mark. One day I want to do something similar in7mm. As marc smith said experimenting with materials/paints/scenics is all part of the fun.. I must say im inspired. Jack.
  19. Glad your getting them sorted Bill. I notice my 66 doesn't like cambers will throw its toys out the pram and its self for that matter. Good stuff though Bill, keeps us occupied. Jack.
  20. One thing I plan in N scale is a 158/9 set in first great western. Will watch that space! Haha. See you soon Jack.
  21. No worries Bill anytime. Interested to see those 158's though. See you in a fortnight, really looking forward to it. Jack.
  22. Bill... dont panic. You want to borrow my Bachmann 66? EWS weathered to clay works standard. And a few "cornish" DMU'S if you want haha!! Let me know I don't mind...honest. Jack.
  23. Lovely work there Bill. What you planning to do with the back scene? Jack.
