RMweb Premium newbryford Posted May 15, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 15, 2017 Next - A station building You didn't say how big the building had to be..... Keeping with the buildings idea. A platelayer's (or fog signalman or similar) hut. Cheers, Mick 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted May 16, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 16, 2017 Next: an observation car! Jim 975025 Caroline. Ex-SR General Manager's Observation Saloon, originally converted form a Hastings line DEMU buffet car. So - keeping in with the conversion theme. Something that is now being used for a purpose other than what it was originally built for. Cheers, Mick 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG John Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 what buffer? I haven't got my glasses on. That great big yellowy coloured thing right in the foreground! You'd need your glasses to see the coupling though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium JZ Posted May 17, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 17, 2017 Just like to say that was a cracking photo from Waverly West, certainly had me fooled for a while. Back on track. A double headed steam/diesel combo. Diesels on the S&D I hear you say? Well, it's my S&D and those people from Swindon never got there grubby hands on it. So, what shall we have next? How about a failed first generation DMU being rescued by steam. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthBrit Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 Did Dr Beeching close some model railways as well as real ones? Or has nobody modelled a level crossing, busy or otherwise? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BG John Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Did Dr Beeching close some model railways as well as real ones? Or has nobody modelled a level crossing, busy or otherwise? I'm just drawing up a possible layout plan with a level crossing of standard and narrow gauge tracks, but no road. I don't know if I'll build it yet, and it could be a long time before it's in a fit state for a photo. Apart from that, I've never had a level crossing on a layout!

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted May 19, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 19, 2017 (edited) I was going to post this for level crossing, but as it's already been up before..... Wildcard.

RMweb Premium newbryford Posted May 21, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 21, 2017 An EMU And without a lot of imagination for the next one. A DEMU Cheers, Mick 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BG John Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Something borrowed is no problem for me, as I always had to borrow stuff to run on my exhibition layouts! This is Les Darbyshire's EM gauge East Kent Railway Kerr Stuart Victory class, running on my (GWR) Abbotsbridge in 1982. Its real home was his Kent & East Sussex Maidstone Road layout. Next, a loco you've built yourself, either from a kit or from scratch. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
