Hi friends, 

 

Here is the fleet dedicated to the layout, I hope you like the fleet 

 

Do you think it is well suited to the layout? I think yes but your advice is interesting for me. 🤓

 

Are you stil building this simple layout build,looks realy good from pics..

Thanks for all the colour recommendations. A couple on the shopping list for Warley tomorrow. Last two pictures from last weekend. OR has gone away now until next June. 

 

First an admiring glance at 50149 while 47406 ticks over the other side of the hut.

 

Than a distinctly southern feeling at the shed. 33207 one of the rare locos I have that retains tension lock couplings at both ends. Useful for double heading, although would really like a matching partner for it. It's usually found with 33101 in grey.

 

Really looking forward to the trip to Warley tomorrow, despite the early start. Have a small shopping list, but not going to go too crazy as the Bachmann refurbished CEP turned up this week. Thing 1 has his own shopping list. Seems to be keeping his options open, I noted just the word 'engine' on it!

And a JNA falcon, with one side quite heavily weathered and some painted out graffiti of Le Chat! And then the other clearer side.

Been nearly 4 months since my last update! Nothing much has happened, but the Bachmann Virgin 57 has now gained the Illuminated Models lighting kit to give it the correct marker lights. 

 

Unlike the Arriva one I did a year or two ago, I've decided to only wire up one end of the loco given it'll always be coupled, and it'll allow me to have reds on the 'front' when coupled and nothing on the inside. 

 

 

 

It's a fiddly kit to fit, but worth it. Even if Illuminated took forever to send them out with zero comms 🙄

Good to sed you stil modelling well Jack🔧👌

Use craft blade ive scratch basic outline of were road wil be,and chipped into filler to make pot holes and grooves..
