All aboard I hope... Yep, great pics Mark - hope the expo goes well and look forward to a debrief from it...

Well done Chris - assuming it’s not DCC then with all those wires Lighting, backscene and train shed all looking good. Look forward to see this in June...
-
Congratulations on the pot
-
That looks fabulous Jerry. The backscene works really well

More Classix Nouveaux than Southern Nouveau...Is it a dream?

Some very nice work again Mark on the rolling stock. Do like your preshading techniques Me thinks you need a short 4mm scenic plank for your pics... -
Dapol/Airfix 16T Mineral Wagon. Now bionic and with added inserts..
bcnPete commented on 46444's blog entry in 46444's Blog
Some very nice mods there Mark. Once these are finished, painted and weathered using your techniques they should look fab. Look forwards to see the write up as to which layout they will be running on...assuming you are not regauging them to 009 -
Loving those blue diesels...they look very at home...
-
Just found this too so will be keeping tabs on it Like the treatment of the concrete in the first shot and some cracking weathering on the stock too
-
I will be bringing this with me...Kyle of Lochalsh - 2mm Finescale... Looking forward to it...

Yes please... I pre booked a room there so I can stagger off after a few sherbets...

Good to hear you are still out there Steve - last time we spoke I believe you had turned to the Darkside of 7mm...remember warning me against that 10 years ago?

Very nice work Mark, At first glance I thought “where’s this new layout sprung from” ....then I clicked after a double take...crafty use of front wheel sets aligned to rail edge Nice fleet of wagons and kettle there in progress - thanks for tips re pledge too :good: Waiting to see the new layout blog now ;) -
GWR stables (2): Internet archaeology
bcnPete commented on Mikkel's blog entry in The Farthing layouts
Wot he said Great meticulous and tenacious research there Mikkel. Very interesting to see before and now too. Happy New Year and look forward to see more inspirational blogs from you... -
Great project Rob - Both track and scenics look fab - enjoyed seeing some more process photos on your Flickr link too. Staying tuned for more...

oh good shout - yes I had forgotten that there is the Scottish and Irish spelling of it... Whichever it is, cheers and all the best for the next decade -
Swindelton – inspiration from a challenge 7 years later!
bcnPete replied to ChrisS's topic in 7mm+ modelling
Only just found this - I remember enjoying the original build of your diorama as I think I also entered the competition that year... Really like the project Chris and staying tuned for more as I have stated my own 7mm layout since...it’s definitely a great scale to model in -
A fascinating read and fab modelling Mikkel - great to see your techniques explained for forming the difficult curved parts Am intrigued by the Cheese and Cucumber sandwich too...

bcnPete commented on Mikkel's blog entry in The Farthing layouts
By lift your spirits you mean.....’raise your glass of whisky’? Good recovery Mikkel -
That looks fab! I completely agree about not needing a full length train. I worked up an idea for a 2mmFS version of Exeter St David’s using the half station idea...must admit now my eyes and patience are worse it would be good to do in 7mm...failed HST in there too
-
Looks great Rob - demonstrates why it is good to lay down track and test fits prior to committing with glue and ballast. I would agree that DCC and sound will add another dimension to it too Must stop looking at 7mm sound chipped LL 37’s this end...so tempting
