The red looks faded and nicely so, was that something you intended with the washes or how did it come about?

Unbelievable for 2mm scale.

Superb, always always wanted a clayton

Any idea how to motorise it?

For some reason I've kept away from blogs (I just refer the thread model) but recently I've stumbled across your blog and I just had to say what a treat it has been going through all your old entries.

The trackwork is just superb and quite inspirational.

Sold to the man with a unused turntable cut out in his layout, wow I was expecting it to be good but I wasn't expecting that good.

Thanks for the posting, superb stuff and even in that short clip you can really see its solid.

I really do want one badly now !!!

Can I bother you for a parts list.

Dave brilliant stuff, I'd subconsciously steered away from doing anything with my turntable from the point of view that I deep down knew it would never perform the way I wanted it to. With alternatives in N gauge at a premium it kind of left me stumped.

Any chance you could post a bill of materials for the rollers, the motor and any other parts you needed to make this work.

Secondly would it be possible to see this in action via some sort of multimedia, solid revolution at 1rpm and solid as a rock sounds too good to be true. :-)

'Chard.....

Great reference, but can I ask are there any gotcha's to avoid when choosing a D5300-D5319 number for a loco.

Dapol produced a D5301 model, and I wish to renumber, just wondering if you knew if there were any variations in that batch.

cheers

Just started work on a Graham Farish peak, D163. Most useful blog indeed.

As always top quality info 'Chard.

Muchos gracias

Excellent work. If that's you just dabbling in N then you've clearly got the hang of it sharpish.

Looks good, nice to see a BR blue version.

Hope you don't mind but there looks like there is something up with the chassis. Body should sit much better than yours does.

Here's my model from the same body from Carl.

Superb....the fine detail of the 2mm is so apparent compared with N....They look superb.

That's certainly looking the part....good work

I agree, that base colour you get looks absolutely spot on.

Very grimey too, which I love :-)

Certainly got the makings of another superb scratchbuilt project G, look forward to seeing it get closer to the finish.

Interesting stuff, I'd never investigated my MK1's really. Given they are the newer Bachmann ones I'd always thought they were not bad but seeing the ultima underframes makes me think attention will be needed.

Also very interested in whatever close coupling setup you get going. I'll be watching closely for that. Another thing I've meant to investigate for some time.

I'd definitely notice and think wowww

Well worth it IMHO, and suggested some might not notice but many will.

Those wheels are quite a remarkable improvement on an already very good model.

The other additions are also worthwhile just for completeness.

Great work as always
