      Take the number 14 and walk from the roundabout.

  3. Has planted his first turntable!

      Londontram

      If planted right it will grow, some of the railway ones when planted in the 1860s were only 40ft by the 1930s some had grown to 70ft at some depots

      There again the 'Bonsai' turntables only ever grew to wagon-size...

      We once found a bolt at Didcot with a loco number stamped in it so we planted it to see if we could grow one. Perhaps we didn't use the right fertiliser?

  4. Many thanks for posting this. Having been inspired by both this thread and the "Automated Motorised Traverser" thread started by Deev, I have just bought an Arduino Uno and have started to study......... I intend to use the Arduino to drive a Herkat N gauge traverser under DCC as there isn't (as far as I can find) a suitable off the shelf decoder. Then I will attempt full automatic control with Railroad & Co. Contibutions like yours, Deev's and Tender's all help, and the timing is perfect. Just waiting for the postman to deliver some diodes and an optoisolator for the DCC circuit and we'll be off..... Thanks to you all.
  5. Bought another Selectrix loco - starting to be habit forming :-)

      Fiesta ST- new one, not the old one.. If you budget only goes as far as the old one buy a Focus.

      Fiesta ST if new car.

      ... but how much space do any of these have in the back to transport those baseboards?

  8. Hates banks - won't let me spend my own money for security reasons!

  9. I haven't got the pictures you are referring to, but using them, try this site and see what they advise as the closest match? http://scalemodeldb.com/paint Find this a very helpful resource.
  10. until

    Just uploaded 70 pictues of the layouts at this lovely exhibition on my gallery on here and at ipernity too (see my signature). This was a great exhibition, though surprisingly quiet. Thanks to everyone involved, I had a great time.
  11. I would like to add one of my photos of the enlarged Glen Gillie taken at Peak Model Rail 2013 in Bakewell

      It's a nice thing to do, but fraught with unintended consequences - good luck.

      Trust me, it's going to be a ton of fun!

  18. Absolutely gorgeous morning - sunny and still, with the early morning frost just steaming off the garden. Squirrel in the hanging basket and birds singing - almost a shame to just be having a "cleaning day"
  19. HS2 will pass very close to home - in 2032-3!

  20. Has changed his first 2 aspect signal with DCC and a laptop. Brilliant!
