  1. Thanks for that Al, l think l saw him at Bristol last year...
  2. Thats a very good idea lan, thanks... Regards
  3. Thanks for the input Alister, much appreciated l have driven buses for 45 yrs, so l know a little about buses, and the bus l would love would be a Leyland national in O gauge ? but it would probably be a white metal kit l guess, as you say, buses in O gauge are hard to find, and if you do find one they are expensive...with the transfers do you know where could l get the transfers to put the RT l have into the late 70s livery ? Regards
  4. To be really honest Barnaby its really hard to get a good finish other than on plain walls, as its hard to get it into awkward corners etc etc, so l am trying some brick plasticard from Hobby Holidays, see where we go with this... Regards
  5. Hi Andy l never drove an RT, but did drive a RM for a while...
  6. Thanks for the conformation 37114, l know l have to remove the yellow windows at the top deck making it all over red and tone her down a little with some subtle weathering...looking for a cheap Green Line RT next ?...
  7. Apparently the RTs lasted until 1979 ?
  8. Hello Bud, I think the RTs lasted until the mid 70s ? will find out soon...
  9. Today l have started the station end which is the access to fiddle yard No 1, l know the bus is out of era but its the only 1-43 scale bus l could find, so shes on her way to a bus rally ?
  10. Hello Barnaby, Not my idea, l saw a video from lan (47606 odin), l used red oxide as a base and then when dry added poly-filla to finish...messy but worth it...
  11. Thanks lan, All thanks to you and your great video on how to do it, thanks again...
  12. Hi Deano, thanks for the thumbs up, l am very pleased with the results...
  13. Hello Andy, Well in the end l followed lan (47606 odin) advise (Thanks) where he used white filler for the mortar on the bricks, l sprayed the brick with red primer first, and when nice and dry applied the filler, takes some practice but it works...
  14. Well after a lot of this and more of that l think l am happy with the finish l have on the laser cut kits and bits...
  15. Today l have started some work on the station bridge, access to the fiddle yard, l don't have a plan just a picture in my head, l want some arches going over the area interesting to see where l go...also l have added some industrial workshop within the first arch...
