Very nice work, the OHLE really finishes it off nicely.

I have never thought seriously about depicting an electrified prototype before, but the upcoming Dapol 86 and OHLE is getting me thinking...

Hello Jim,

Good luck with your project; I look forward to following your progress.

Hi Grahame

However good the Dapol 56 turns out to be, from your point of view the loco pictured in your post has one crucial feature: you did it.

I have some older models that don't stand up necessarily well to the newer stuff but I would never get rid of them because they represent a (to me) formative period in my own modelling and still give happy memories.

Wow - that backscene really is quite superb. I think you had the right reason for recruiting Ron!!

cheers

Ben A.

I agree with you.

I have given the blogs a try but I prefer the "story development" and accessibility of a topic.

Hi Grahame

Glad you posted a link to this page on the N-gauge Yahoo group else I wouldn't have found it - haven't really got the hang of these blogs on RMWeb. Yet I had found the page about the signal box.

This looks like a great project - good luck with it. I remember I was in Guy's Tower for a few days in the late 1990s and remember seeing the Pullman liveried 73 (when it had the silver roof) rattling through with an engineer's train, so there's another loco-hauled option!

Have you settled on a track plan yet - or even a rough schematic - that you could post?

cheers

Ben A.

This looks very interesting indeed. Any chance of posting a trackplan?

cheers
