@Mrkirtley800 something old and green came to visit today.... ive tried to weather it as much as possible as they where never kept very tidy apparently - not sure about the green as its different in the flesh

I have tried this on a different iPad and it worked fine. however what I did notice is that the working iPad is running software 16.2 whereas the other is running 15.6, so I am just updating this to test, and I will post back my results

got this same issue. has any answer come back from the admins????
-
Here you go dad, seeing as you haven't posted for a while - I have finished the Milk Van....with churns inside!
-
No I am afraid not, with a busy family and work life I only just manage to get my own stuff done
-
After now doing 5 coaches I have learnt a couple of tricks.....but the only one I would recommend is take your time. They are certainly not Larry Goddards or Ian Rathbone standard ....I think I need a few more decade years of practice!!!
-
...and I have managed to get one last can of Danske Red from halfords sale rack!
-
Absolutely!!!! I wouldn't have attempted them otherwise!

Hi Compound2632 yes these are the standard ones in the kit. probably the easiest bit of the build! thanks
-
spotted something in BRM this month!!!

Dad, 3rd picture down..... are these 43' Brake thirds & All Thirds? Just about to start lining mine this week. i have been through 20 odd pages of your posts so far (will keep looking) and trying to get a close up of yours (presume Larry painted & lined those?)

The Midland Railway 2 chains = 1" Line Plan
v8cpt commented on Holmesfeldian's blog entry in Idridgehay - A Derbyshire Midland Railway Branch Station
Hi, does anyone have a scale drawing of the station building? it looks pretty similar to Wirksworth i think - but they are smaller buildings than whats on the S&C, and so may work for my 7mm layout Thanks Chris -
That 4-4-0 has certainly done some miles over the years Dad!!!!!!
-
Looking good Dad! That old narrow loco has been thru some tough times! I recall it had a coach with it for excursions.
-
Nope I used a scriber you gave me dad! ...its your age u forget! Btw the station was Luffenham serving both north and south luffenham villages.....and seeing it was a midland station I think I can get away with correcting before someone else does!
-
Shouldn't a station pilot of performed the carriage shunting duties????
-
I remember that level frame well on that grassington layout and it got alot of use!!!! Did we have working signals on the exhibition layout....I can't remember??
-
That 0-4-4WT has certainly done some miles over the years....ye old faithful as i seem to remember!
-
Don't worry Dad it just a sabbatical from 4mm/OO!!! I see it as something to practice on a larger scale for me to make my mistakes before going back down - plus it would not be good to have those locos simply in a box or display cabinet now would it!?! Plus also it gives you an excuse to tinker - when mum wanders into the garage and catches you doing something on a slightly larger scale for us! ;)
-
Sure am pleased!! Looks fantastic Dad....looking forward to getting the track work as well, so I can get the basis of the layout sorted (maybe I should start a thread on here!!!!) btw, do I need to get the local coal merchant to do me a delivery for when the 2F arrives.....?
