Andy

And the more pics like that in the Lounge the better. :locomotive:

Andy

Nice pics Cav, the house would be a build and a half in OO but in N, wow, that will be a challenge. If the row of cottages are also on the layouts how far forward of the Viaduct pillars will they be?

Looking forward to seeing trying to see if I bring my magnifying glass the 37 at Mansfield.

Andy

If I keep pestering you for grass pics I'll sign myself Jeff so he can take the blame.

Bill

Morning Shaun, that's a nice pic of the N1, I just love those stumpy little locos.

Nice one mate, more please.

Andy

Cracking pics of Bakewell mate, love the atmosphere.

And

Al I have a COMPLAINT TO MAKE

In that pic you kindly should of Fiddlers Yard you could have at least Air Brushed out my BELLY :no: :no: :no:

The FAT Controller

No rush Mike, I will wait up till midnight, hahhaha

And

Hi Guys, That's why I have built small layouts for the last few years, but even now with TLGP in mind I am planning a smallie to do before the big one.

And

The good wife thinks I am, hence the diet, hhaha

Fatty

O.K. Guys, I'm off to the Lounge to make an announcement.

Not fit for KL ears so only go and look if you are either BRAVE or STUPID.

aNdY, tH e BoDgIt rEtUrNs :scared: :scared:

Hi Al I have sent a PM re the track saga, hahha

Andy

Thanks for that. I'll join in the mutual back-slapping and congratulate you on 7,000 posts!!!

 

Amazing how much hot air me and thee have pumped out over the last 2 years!!

 

Jeff

Well where did all that garbage come from?

Oh yes, posts like this I guess

And

Were all behind you Mike, Jeff's got the Plaster, Jason's got your chimney pots and I've got the Lawn Mower.

Pics Pics Pics please hahhahaaa

And

NICE

 460 pages and nearly a QUARTER OF A MILLION VIEWS.

Well done Jeff. :locomotive: :locomotive:

Andy

That all sounds very logical, Andy, but don't just sell for the sake of it. Your new shed layout could sometimes double-up for other regions and you may regret having rid yourself of the A1, A2 etc. In the same way as you've done with all those Southern locos.

 

I DO hope you move this year, for the sake of your sanity. It now looks like there'll be legal completion on my new house sometime in June, so it's going to start getting a bit chaotic with 2 houses worth of stuff funnelled into one! If you aren't moved by September, come and spend a week helping me work on KL2!

 

Jeff

We won't be quite as bad but we will have both the bedrooms furniture and the Lounge stuff all in the Lounge whilst we decorate the 2 Bedrooms and the hall plus hang 6 new doors and have the carpets laid in the bedrooms BEFORE we start moving the beds in there.

We will be living / eating / Sleeping (or trying to) in the Lounge.

The Kitchen will also be re furbished at the same time.

Oh and did I mention the Garage

Jeff the LITTLE Layout won't be a Shed, just a yard / or something simple, just a couple of points and some nice scenics.

WHAT DO I KEEP SAYING

Just a couple of points

simple

nice scenics

I'll be modeling a plain field next and saying its HS2, just not finished yet

 I may sell some of my Eastern Region stuff, A1, A2, etc. I now have a couple more Blue Diesel so I can run Blue / Speedlink for some variety and with Sound as well.

I also have a spare 08 in green with Sound and I'm taking the sound chip out of one of my Green 37's to fit into the Blue one. I will then move the spare green 37 on.

If I was still having a Shed / Depot on the Layout I would have kept them but a moving 37 weathered is a moving 37 weathered, (mind you I have 3 x Black 5's).

Again with just the small yard there really is no justification for 2 x Sound 08's so its sense for one to go.

I will be starting a small Layout for our Clubs Open Weekend at Easter, the final plan hasn't been decided as yet but it will be about 5ft x 18 inches or so. I have a spare 6 x 2 board at the Club, but that is just a tadge to big to go into the car easily so needs a trim.

More updates soon.

BTW did I mention that I'm also hoping to move house this year. :no:

And

I do have the table but it'll be a lot easier when I'm back in the groove building KL2. Much easier. One of my "problems" is that railway modelling is only one of a few major hobbies. When the bunker was available, 90%+ of my time was spent on the railway. Now, the balance is being redressed and - to be quite honest - the other hobbies have a clear priority.

 

That will change, of course, but I'm quite happy with the situation. So don't necessarily expect miracles after I've been to Jason's!!

 

Jeff

So do you have a list of Locos For Sale, HHAHheheheeeeeee

The Grateful Bodger :sungum: :sungum:

Come on Jeff, you must still have that Kitchen Table and a Craft Knife.

Andy

Hi Shaun, the mention of the word Signals sends a shiver down my feeble spine. I know I will have to add some at some stage on my next little project but the LATTER the better.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Andy

Nice work on the platform Al, The track can be weathered, ballasted and washed in to look good.

BESIDES, people will be so busy looking at the buildings, interiors, footbridge, road bridge etc that they wont even see the track.

Andy

Nice work on number removal, wheres the pics of the NEW NUMBERS?

And

O.K. Mike enough off Thread from Jeff and Co, its back to pics of Grass I'm told by an unlikely source.

Well I made it up actually, any pics are good pics.
