Thanks for sharing those are great.

The reintroduction of the NER hopper wagon kit is just amazing! Well done to Slaters, definitely will be ordering a few, and will carry on to buy them every now and then, a must for any north eastern layout.

They are awaiting the transfers, but available to order. I rang them the other morning and acquired some. They'll be sent out when the decals arrive.

Very glad I didn't enter into any eBay unpleasantness for some now!

Cheers

Hello all, thought I would share this. Started it two years ago, but had issues with the running qualities, so recently I took it back out and stripped it down and improved the running. Now I'm happy that its complete and finished. 

Thanks, 

Nelson 

Thank you for letting us know, email sent for a body kit, will post pics if it arrives.

And a lined version, in gauge one if that's what you fancy.

Hello everyone,

Has anyone purchased and made up any of the NER carriages that are currently on offer from Diagram3D (as seen in the link below) I have seen and read Mike Trice's excellent thread on the GNR Carriages but was just wondering if anyone has built the NER ones. If anyone has any photos, please feel free to share them.

Thanks in advance,

Nelson.

First magazine I bought in a while and by ignoring the typo mistakes, it's very good, enjoyable!

I used Halfords red plastic primer on this ratio kit and it seems to have worked well.

Any update on Slaters and their reintroduction of kits??

Good to see the model but got some serious eye strain from the focusing unfortunately, may only be me tho. Can't wait till the model is released!

Here's my competed model, more photos can be seen on my workbench thread.

Hello all,

I believe this is the first completed modelling piece of 2018, I started it at the Bangor show, and now it's finally done apart from couplings (screw) and transfers. The shade of brown is often debated upon, so I've just based mine off a photo in and used various shades of brown.

Thanks,

Nelson

I have little interest in modern image but stumbled across this thread and have been reading the past few pages, the work your doing is really superb so I'm gonna carry on reading. Nice work keep it up!

As seen here, perhaps a mod could merge the thread

It's not in Northern Ireland.

It is sad that there are no model shops anymore (apart from my old toy box) but it's just the way things are, many items are far cheaper online.

Happy days!

The article from roundhouse is top, very good piece.

Hello all,

I'm looking to purchase one of the newer releases Hornby 2P locomotives, any livery, it just has to be the newer loco drive version. If anyone has ant for sale, do let me know.

Thanks in advance,

Nelson

I was interested in buying a can until I found out the local Halfords does not stock it for some reason. The photos above make it look really good. I like others, have a frustration when "matt" paints don't actually turn matt.

I still think the series is quite an embarrassment, and the whole drinking sequences in the recent episode, was that really nessecary?

Saw this the other day and thought it was just amazing.

Really looking forward to this, cannot wait!

Love the idea of this thread, and really look forward to updates, awesome!
