Here are a few pictures of the layout image by blowingoff, on Flickr So here is the general view of the of the depot, with the carriage shed as it stand. image by blowingoff, on Flickr Class 57 on the washing road plus carriage shed image by blowingoff, on Flickr Fuelling road with DRS 37 and Gen van image by blowingoff, on Flickr image by blowingoff, on Flickr image by blowingoff, on Flickr Please remember that yards and depots track are not straight so I'm trying to do something a bit different. Hope you all like. I really like to have some constructive criticism please.

Hello all, I'm in the process of building a network rail depot with maintenance shed for network rail test vehicles and a traction depot with a washing plant either side of them with a refilling point for loco's and stock, the layout isn't based on any region. The size of the layout is two 6ft x 2ft boards with a fiddle yard for trains to come off seen and the layout will be dcc throughout, The reason I'm building the layout is I have a strong connection network rail vehicle as I'm a fitter at derby maintaining either DRS class 37s or NWR fleet of class 31. I'll post some pictures soon!

Are you going to paint that in network rail colours?

R u still thinking of a new layout?

Mick where is 08417?

Mick if I was you, I would stop making 99666, it in the works at the mo, so there is going to be some changes!

Could a class 419 be able to multiple up with a class 205?

I wonder if model rail or another company might produce network rail class 101 iris 2?

Mick is there any chance of a few pictures of Caroline at all? The model I mean! I've seen the real thing enough times!

That's because the paint s done in batches, just like the real thing with paint

You will have to wait sorry!

I may put a picture of mentor on here! The changes are alarming! You might lads that have done mentor will have to mod your stock just like that they are doing to the real thing

Maybe doing station pilot duties?

Just got mine from the post office in Loughborough, what a great model, I hope it's going to win next year award!

Could any one tell me which loco's are fitted with westinghouse air Pump that Hornby has release and also how do you tell if they have got them, I.e Loco number i understand that they are on the let hand side looking at the smokebox.

i brought a D5401 in model forum! its a nice runner!

Thanks for that, I will try to hope to Heljan stand, they might have a answer when I get there?

Are there any other livieries that they worn at all?

Hello Lads and Heljan Are there any plans for doing another run of class 27s in green without the cab tablet catcher on the driver side, would love if they could do another run of D5401 at all?

i have been trying to find a video of me in my younger day as a cleanner, i was firing a Large Prairie, you will be able to watch what im doing aswell as the driver and the noises that makes in the cab, the Blackhead of the firebox is the same as a 38xx Class locomotive, yep 38xx and 28xx have Large ejectors to produce a vucuum,the GWR was very stand in the way of the backhead, i just can't seen to find this CD or Video

thats the driver operating the large ejector, any chance of having the other sound to compare the two?

My other post about the air or steam, what it is when the regulator is open there is ant vacuum valve( i think)and it make squees noise please put that in the sound loco? Can you post another film with the nee sound on? If you need anyhelp with steam loco sound pls feel free to pm me, I don't no everything but I Sure I can find out?

Same method on steam engine, by the way, the method i have stated is only on GWR loco with vucuum brakes, the sound i remember is on western locos is like on 3717 or 3440 which ever it running at the mo, is pressing either 4 or 5, most Westerns have that too, i think its when the driver open the regulator and there like a rush of air or steam can't remember?

On Most great western engines they do not have steam brake they only have Vaccum brakes, to create a "Brake" the Large ejetor is operated and draws air out of the system, over time the this needs recharging to bring it back to 25"hg, when shunting As a fireman i have fired a manor and a 4141, when the loco has clouped up to the train the driver create a brake, thats the large ejector, when the loco is on the move at a 15mph the large ejector is shut off and the mechancal Vacuum pump takes over, before the train comes into the station the large ejector is operated and keeps the 25"hg in the brake system. i thinking thats right if not, please correct me! as for the locomotives i will find out!
