hybridangel77 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Next up is the Heljan class 128 parcels. Again with the buffer beam details added from factory it just need dirt added and with the colour red being as bright as it was from the box which made it look very toy like i think the weathering has completely transformed it into a realistic representation model of the real thing. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybridangel77 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Next in line was the Hornby class 31 RFR. I added all the buffer beam detail at one end and then went about weathering the loco. Hopefully you will all agree it now looks so much better dirty than it did clean. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybridangel77 Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 Along with refitting a few of my locos with new decoders after blowing them i started to detail some other locos including this class 47. It originally had a snow plough fitted to the front end which just did not ever look right so i decided to remove it and add some brake pipes in it's place which i now think looks ten times better. I thought id add another 47 for all you 47 fans out there. 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sub39h Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Excellent news about the shoot mate, and well deserved. On the WCML just south of Rugby there is Weedon FC. They have a container with Weedon FC sprayed on it on their grounds. That would make interesting inspiration for a small football club if that was what you were thinking of.

shaunthesheep277 Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Some people have fiddle yards but it's not very often you see one with scenery or added detail. Ever looked into that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybridangel77 Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 Some people have fiddle yards but it's not very often you see one with scenery or added detail. Ever looked into that? Yes i have been thinking of doing exactly that recently on the far side of the layout to represent a large siding in real life..the only issue i have is there is only a limited space so it would only be a small siding so will not hold a lot of stock or long rakes but certainly an idea buzzing around my head tho. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony566 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Hi Terry, on your station section you have catenary uprights on the platforms did you do a set of images showing how you built these and what you used ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hybridangel77 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Hi Terry, on your station section you have catenary uprights on the platforms did you do a set of images showing how you built these and what you used ?? No i did not but i did do a video on it on youtube tho. i think it was called how to build the OHLE. they are not prototypical and are thinking of replacing them with something better at some point.

I got the new buffers in the post today so that will keep me busy over the weekend. still yet to get the coal loads yet and still unsure on whether to repaint them like you did or keep them the same. Repainting them into railfreight would be better as they would go with my railfreight 58. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
