I'm almost tempted to take it to O-16.5.........

Thanks Nige. I had similar thoughts to you. When you compare it to a mainline loco its way too big, but on its own, its not too bad.

Nicely done! Can I ask if you cut the cab and bonnet down in height. I'm making a cut 'n shut conversion and i am now mocking up the loco. The loco seems very tall andi'm wondering whether to ditch the chassis and go for a SPUD or similar instead. Thanks in advance.

Very nice!

And another Sentinel too?

Looks brilliant. I remember the fire of 1978 vividly. My parents live about 8miles from crinan and we had been visiting family nearby. We took a detour via Moine Mhor to look over at the hotel. You could see the flames for miles.

I have a Sentinel away at a friend being sound fitted and he is attempting to fit a stay alive to it as well. If not the stay alive will live in a wagon and permanently coupled to the loco.

Tablet for the Exhibition Manager at Perth.......then he comes a little south for Apple Pie..........

Groan.......

When I was a lad, you could go down to the corner shop with a £1 in your pocket, get 2 cokes, a packet of crisps and two mars bars. Nowadays, flippin CCTV everywhere.....

I went to my Premature Ejacuation support group meeting this morning. Turns out that the meeting is tomorrow.

Agreed! A worthy winner. Well done.

Thanks Gary. The layout looks superb.

That's better. Nice looking layout and looks like lots of operator involvement involved. Nice to see the wire in tube point operation too, too many layouts using noisy solenoid motors. Spoils the sound coming from the locos. Do you shunt with cards or freestyle? Keep the photos coming.

Terrible, absolutely terrible. Only 5 photos for such a superb looking layout????? More, more, more please!
