Guest Digital Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Nice track layout Andy. Plenty of scope for some interesting train movements. John. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 So you'll be shunting before lunch - what's planned for the afternoon (and evening)? Looking good Andy.

Andrew P Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hi Andy I've finally managed to catch up with the new project. This is certainly more you. Although I'm looking forward to the progress, please don't do too much. Hi Andy Wot my REME mate above has said "Although I'm looking forward to the progress, please don't do too much." Hi Duncan and Clive, I am pacing myself with this one as I need to save some energy for the BLT / Pen replacement along the other wall. I'm pleased so far though, and as you know Clive, Depots can be just fun little projects in their own right.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pair of pictures from the GC. Is that binny I see sneaking into shot? Morning Andy, Beale St has gone / will be going back onto the 2 X 4ft boards as originally planned, and has moved down one in the pecking order at the moment as NK and the Pen replacement will get underway first, besides, I run my O Gauge more up at the Club on the Dornoch Branch now a couple of times a Month. Yes that is Jeff / Binny getting in the way, hahha, we had a great day out down there yesterday, here are a couple more pics for your enjoyment. The Jinty about to depart. And at Quorn. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mark and John, Yes apart from the Yard, the Depot itself offers some movements, on and off of Stock but also Light Engine direct in and out of the Fiddle Yard. Thanks for looking in Guys.

I do have a soft spot for the Ivatt, especially in the green livery. Did you have a ride? I may wander over next Saturday morning whilst Sarah is out at the local NCT sale. The only trouble is my membership pass has expired, and they have not sent my renewal yet. I had the same problem last year when my TTI colleague chased it up at the booking office. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 I've had a good talk to myself last night and decided that a New Point was required for access to the Depot for an incoming Train rather than having to run back through the Yard. 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Andy, no Train Ride, TBH I don't see the point, I prefer to stand in the Yard or on the Platform and watch, hear and SMELL the movements, plus it leaves more money to spend on Breakfast's, hahah 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) Can't keep up with you Andy. Liking the look of this so far. Thanks very much, I think because I haven't picked an area I'm a lot freer to do what I want and not get it to wrong, (I hope), hahhah Edited February 19, 2017 by Andrew P 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 Only an Hour in the Old Potting Shed this evening, so I've fitted the Controller into the Facia. I've also sorted the Fiddle Yard. There won't be much progress in the week ahead as I'm out for 4 Days and then probably up late Thurs night / Fri morning watching the By Election programs, so even Friday will be a washout I expect. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aberdare Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Hi Andy This slipped under my radar didn't it, or maybe I need new glasses so I don;t miss new thread titles, but I think the truth is you build them so fast they've been and gone before I get a chance to read them. It looks as though it is going to be a good one for a lot of shunting about. Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

67A Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hi Andy, You just got to have a team of dedicated or perhaps press-ganged workers to achieve so much so quickly, I'm sending my undercover mate James in for investigation.

Andrew P Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Cheers Mike and Shaun, yes a busy week, but I'm in the Shed tonight whilst the good lady watches the Soaps, but wont be doing any real work, probably just a planning evening ready for the weekend when things should get back to ALMOST normal. I wish I had a gang to help me, but I'm home alone, Billy no mates, just a lonesome Modeller, ahhhhhhh :no: 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Hi Guys, thanks for the interest, all is well, and I'll be back in full swing next week once I have this week out of the way. Mum's Birthday tomorrow and a couple of big weathering jobs arriving Friday, so a busy weekend ahead by the looks of it. I'll have some more up-dates as well very soon.

RMweb Gold MarshLane Posted February 22, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 22, 2017 Looking good Andy, just had an enjoyable 15 mins catching up. As the others have said, somehow this seems more your cup of tea! But as long your happy with it. Love the gentle curves coming off that new Y point, very prototypical, nice and smooth! Following (as ever!) with interest and much enjoyment (as well as envy) at the speed you achieve things! Rich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
