Good to see progress.  Rivet, not rivit though!

Surprised nobody has commented on how to upload a picture - I don't know myself, but I think if you use the "my media" bit in the area above where you add a comment you might manage.

Thanks to Don for supplying the newspaper clippng about unloading.

Wroxham boasted this facility (long since out of use) for loading rail wagons in a siding to the north of the station. I believe that it has now been demolished. Grain was discharged into a hopper from a road vehicle before being lifted via a continuous bucket type elevator and allowed to drop down into the wagon below. The right hand of the two loading chutes has broken away and dropped down to reveal the outlet from the splitter. The second picture shows how the angled duct that comes back down to the bottom acted as a return for any grain that couldn't flow down into a wagon.  The provision of the twin loading chutes suggests it was designed for use with the 4 wheel Grain wagons. According to the plate on the front it was constructed by J.S. Engineering (Norfolk) Ltd Norwich

 

PS - apologies for lack of photos - if someone can explain how to load photos, I will happily add some photos of the Grain elevator if anyone is interested

Thanks, lot better, can see what you are talking about now!  Wish I had the time to get to grips with ACad, good on you.  

Hello.

Any chance of uploading the photograph at a larger size, so we can see a bit more detail of your endeavours?

Great to see this layout still on the go and around the Scottish exhibition circuit.

I was advised that the terminus station (Glendevon) was rebuilt a while back (bit like those stories of a tool that's had x new handles and y new bodies but it is still the original from granddad!)

Some of the modelling is pretty ancient - I had a hand in some bits and that was more than 30 years ago! I seem to remember the brewery yard cobbles were lentils (or similar) stuck down one at a time!

Nice J88 and the similar thread about using an Electrotren loco is great!

Cheers,

Saves me suggesting that then ...

Mate, you wanna see the XL spreadsheet that tracks the 64B allocation month by month - I swear this is madness....

I'm not familiar with the prototype but they look very nice.  Maybe helped by the underlying model and modelling.

A step by step for the weathering when you do some more might be worth considering.

Thanks for posting.

Cheers,

Looks well worthwhile.

How fiddly is the inside glazing painting?

Looks interesting. ?

Hi

I think Cambrian have just brought out this wagon? ?

My detail pictures of D2767 at Bo'ness now on my fotopic page:

Hope these help.

Info on SRPS diesel group page is under Fleet/SRPS diesels. ?

Nice to find this thread as I have one of these kits in the "to do" cupboard.

Pity it took me a month to find it from when you started, although I think I recognise the compensation arm pictures, but didn't obviously know what they were related to. ?

Is it just me that can't see your pictures in this thread?
