Hi, has anyone resprayed an HST rake into NXEC East Coast and have details of paint shades used / source of decals? 

Had a quick search but cant find any threads as far as I can see. 

Hi ho, hi ho,....it's off to Ayr we go!

Fantastic work....very very impressive.

We use Dave Fentons mega points servo controller on Blair Atholl nice random bounce

Blair Atholl refurbishment coming on well ....... don't forget to drop by at the Perth Show on 24/25th June

Blair Atholl towards Drumochter

After "resting" since 2003, Blair Atholl is due back to the exhibition circuit next year starting in June at Perth.

A full refurbishment is now underway which will see a new control panel, full re-wire, introduction of servo control to the signals with "bounce" new layout display lighting and many other improvements.

It is hoped to appear at other shows following Perth, the model is 32' x 15' (widest point) and requires a 7.5 tail lift truck for transport (not the cheapest guest layout)

Will be back in 2017, we have accepted an invitation to a Scottish Show....................... more details to follow!!

Was a highlight for me at the Glasgow show- it certainly stood out amongst many other rather inferior offerings there and I am glad it it being given a new lease of life- It is well worth catching when if it goes back on the circuit.

Thanks Ben,

On reflection, its success was the fact that the layout is of an actual place and not a fictitious hybrid. As such it is instantly recognisable to "joe public" and not just enthusiasts. Our biggest test was the decision to exhibit it in the Blair Atholl village hall which proved immensely popular with the locals.
