I also finished off the Level Crossing and Road this morning, but will replace the plastic (bent) hanger with some fine wire at some stage.

 

Minerva, 8750 Class, No 9610 works back to Seven Mills Light Engine.

 

 

 

Once clear of the Crossing the Gates are opened again by the Fireman.

 

 

And it then works into the Engineers Yard.

 

And Dapol 57XX, 5717 Shunts the Coal Yard.

Liking the Police car!

You can if you model the Eastern Region.

 

Quite - I have 3 Class 15's from Little Loco. What am I doing!

The Police Car was a gift from David, Jintyman, bit new to run with the Steamers, but still a nice Model.

 

I looked at the LLC Class 22's but there a little on the expensive side at the moment, although a frind of mine has a Class 15, and the detail and running is superb.

[tigerburnie]

Andy, I thought you said the fireman closed the gates, where's the fire engine and what are the rozzers doing there.............?

[Andrew P]

And some more pics from yesterday and this morning before the Level Crossing was done.

Do like a Western engine, the panniers remind me of a family summer holiday at Blue Anchor Bay, with them running up and down the track.

[gismorail]

Some great shots Andy things coming together nicely now . Love the 'Woody' by the level crossing excellent 

[Miss Prism]

That last set of shots feels very 'Forest of Dean' to me.

Berry Wiggins had a depot in the forest, go for Andy.

I've never been to the West Somerset Line, but I've seen some nice pics of the area, just stunning.

 

A Pannier never offends, as has been said on other threads. And there will be MANY more Pannier Shots coming along soon.

Indeed my friend, and low mileage so far as well.

Thanks very much, still loads of scenics to do yet, but it's going to need more greenery yet.

Naa, No Depot, just passing through, needs a good weathering though, haha.

So a diasterous night / morning. Going to bed at 11-30pm and found a wet patch in the inner hall carpet. looked up and no drips, checked the walls and they were dry. So now the problem hit home, we have CONCRETE FLOORS!  

 

Turned off the water and the Central Heating, put down some towels and went to bed.

 

Phoned Direct Line this morning and they sent out DYNO within an hour, he had a look and confirmed my worst suspicions, they would have to come back next week and dig up the Hall floor.

 

Hopefully the insurance will cover the cost including new carpets.

[Andrew P]

So with no more I could do today, I retired to TOPS.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Back with more later.

Cheers Ade, mode pics soon and then some Diieeseely things again.

Hi Andy Nice set of pics, I glad you have decided to go round to the other side of the shed again. My friend has a Minerva Pannier and they are a nice model it's sounds good too, I have been tempted with a Jinty myself. 

 

Cheers Peter.

Thanks Peter, my Minerva has Factory Sound and my Jinty has a Paul Chetter Sound with a 3D Double Cube Speaker if I remember correctly. The Jinty certainly has more bark to the exhaust chuff.

Cheers Guys, MOJO a little lacking today, I keep having to turn the water on and off as required, and trying to dry out the Carpets.

 

Good job I got some pics last week, as I'm in no mood to run Trains at the moment.

[Mulgabill]

No mood to run trains!  Must be serious.

 

Never mind, mince pies only 6 sleeps away.

If I can be a*sed to go.   

 

Hopefully it will be done by then, but if I don't come back on here, you know I've fallen down the Hole.  

[Andrew P]

Luckilly before the Water Leak and the loss of Mojo, I did take quite a few pic's, about 70 to be precise, so here are some more from last week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next up will be some Blue Boxes.
