P.C.M Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 Looking fantastic as ever Peter. I haven't been on RMWeb for months due to various reasons so having a hefty catch up today! Hi Alex, Yes it's been a while hope you are well mate, I have done a bit on Llanbourne since you were on I have probably done more on the layout this year than I the last five. Cheers Peter. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C.M Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 More cracking photos Peter. Especially like D200 on the saloon, that really looks good. Might take mine for a run on PDW later. Thanks Marcus, I checked out your lads video before and saw the saloon go by with a class 31 providing the power. Didn't see D200 though. Cheers Peter.

P.C.M Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 It just keeps getting better & better Peter. I love the colours in the ballast in the new section, you just seem to get the blend and shades absolutely nailed. Like the inspection saloon & D200 as well, just all round superb modelling. Cheers, Stu. Thanks Stu, I had some trouble while working on D200 but it's come together well and is a bit of a favourite at the moment. I am still following your progress and it looks like you will ballasting soon, it's a big job but doing small area's at a time makes it easier. Cheers Peter.

P.C.M Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 Keep these awesome pictures coming Peter!!! Thanks Mate, still a few more pics to come. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C.M Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 I always knew that it was a long shot, but hey it was worth a try! Loving the latest photos, how good does D200 look sat in the station. Quality! Certainly worth a try Alex, As I said I do like class 60s, I actually remember when they first came out. I was working up Eastleigh Yard at the time when one came down for crew training. I remember the first time I climbed into the cab very spacious and modern compared to class 37s etc. Cheers Peter.

P.C.M Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 Totally, this boy needs a big brother! post-6894-0-52715700-1383778685.jpg I must agree the side on shot of D200 on the saloon looks very well lit. If it weren't for the white brick wall in the background it could be a real photo! Thanks Cav, I do love your 45110 I remember seeing 110 and 107 back in the day and wanting to do at least one of them. I have thought about putting up a removable sky backscene when taking pics from the back of the layout. It would certainly improve the pic with D200. Cheers Peter.

Didn't see D200 though. Cheers Peter. No D200 unfortunately although that's one I wouldn't mind adding to the collection. Sorry I should of emphasised the saloon when I said take mine for a run later. A few shots of 47145 though which I hope didn't disappoint.

Cheers Marcus No worries Marcus, I thought you had a D200 but I think for your time period D200 would have been stuck in York. 50007 looked good in the Charter set. 47145 did look good a nice set of wagons too.

Popular Post P.C.M Posted November 13, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2015 I have had a bit of a clean up this week and cleaned all the tracks on Llanbourne as I have a BRMA meeting here tomorrow. Trains are all ready to go in the fiddleyard and loco's are stabled in the depot. The area around the groundframe has been finished off and I have re branded a friends class 66. Cheers Peter. 20 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRman Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Regretfully, I won't be able to make it tomorrow. I had another gout flare up this week and while I am recovering well now, I'm still not all that mobile.I am absolutely positive your meeting will go well and will be very popular as usual. Enjoy the day (applies to Peter and to all who do go to the meeting). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted November 14, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 14, 2015 Thanks for today Peter. Another enjoyable afternoon at Llanbourne and with the added attraction of the new work to admire. The O2 seems to be running much better as well. One of Penhayle Bay's Claytons has snuck into the yard alongside one of Llanbourne's 26s in a mock Scottish scene 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The peninsula was too far for a day trip so I went to the St Lukes show in Hornsby Heights instead. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddys-blues Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) I have to say Pete, I looked at these 2 pictures that I have copied over below, and even though some of them models are getting on a bit now in age, the DMU and the MK2d coaches are still fine models, and once subtly weathered they are as good as anything that is on the market today when you consider the cost difference in buying the all new all singing dancing models, and at least with your 101 the underframe bits won't fall off when handled, unlike todays Bachmann 101. Nice modelling Craig. Edited November 14, 2015 by muddys-blues 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of Penhayle Bay's Claytons has snuck into the yard alongside one of Llanbourne's 26s in a mock Scottish scene Glad you had a good time Rick, That 02 steamer of yours is a super looking little model I am glad it's running better now. Thanks for posting up the pic but the class 26 belongs to Simon, though I think it's had more running on my layout than his. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice modelling Craig. Thanks Craig, I have two Lima 101's that have both have the better Hornby motors fitted and they run really well. I do like the look of the Bachmann model but it's out of my price range and I probably have enough 101's. I think the MK2ds look ok but I will be tempted with the new Bachmann ones when they come out, I was going to get some Hornby air cons too but they have their own problems so I will stick with my old ones for now.
