  1. used in a similar way to front lights on the previous steam loco hauled train services to denote the type of train when the loco is not fitted with a headcode display, for example on the bigger loco's there was a black & white display to show the train code such as 1A45, these displays are no longer used in UK but the 4 digit code is used on control room/signal box route boards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train_reporting_number
  2. good photo's like the 58.
  3. good to read you had a good day, the 02 looks good in the yard.
  4. I wasn't sure if you had tried hardboard/masonite, but thought it was worth the suggestion, the hill now has a purpose on the layout, if you need any Cornish photo's for reference just shout.
  5. cracking engine house ruin, just like those near me, a suggestion for the backscene board to avoid joints, a sheet of hardboard bent to curve around might work.
  6. just found this layout thread, that's a very interesting junction layout, like the proposed scenics too.
  7. 546 & 711 looks fantastic, the side on shot of 546 in the cutting could be mistaken for the rear thing.
  8. like the 'new' ruin, looks even more like cornwall
  9. great pics, looks a very nice layout.
  10. nice house,hope the residents like church bells on sunday mornings
  11. I'll see if I can get up to wadebridge for the show.
  12. like the 'new' shunter, the Pressed Steel car body factory in Swindon had 6 which look similar, IIRC they were Fowler diesels, the factory now does body pressing for the BMW Mini rahge, not sure if the shunters are still working. just found this ------- some have a new home not far from their original place of work, http://www.swindon-cricklade-railway.org/pix2.php#top the 5th photo on the link.
  13. nice job on the 47 upgrade, photo's look great, liking the new base board additions too.
  14. more space can't wait to see these new additions fill up with even more superb scenic work.
  15. they look superb, need some rain to fill the river, row boat looks a bit lost
  16. the new vids are super, love the Westerns, nice collection on a super layout.
  17. new pics are good, like the 'news reader' & 47 cab close up.
  18. A fab gang of Western's all originally built in my home town.
