RMweb Premium Popular Post acg5324 Posted November 6, 2020 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2020 (edited) The second of three pubs I have to build for Kensington Olympia......I have a drink problem! This is The Bricklayers Arms in Russell Gardens at the north end of the station. It was a haunt of the members of Queen and used in several episodes of Minder. It later became The Kensington and has now been demolished! Mount board framework, plasticard walls. The blank walls will butt up to other buildings.

Popular Post grahame Posted November 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2020 Here's a few recent lockdown efforts, all in N/2mm and scratch-built from card and plasticard (apart from the gasholder which is a bashed kit). None are quite finished with some details still to make and add: 14 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Jamiel Posted November 23, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 23, 2020 Very slightly off topic. I just thought that it was worth posting that Banburysaint has started a thread for Kit Bashing buildings. https://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/155712-kit-bashing/ I hope there are lots of people who post here who might be able to post something there, taking building kits and reworking them.

RMweb Premium acg5324 Posted November 24, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) Another model of an actual building for my Kensington Olympia N gauge layout. This is 1 Addison Bridge Place. The real building is currently home to a footwear wholesaler and is next to the Hand and Flowers Pub ( which will be the third pub on the layout ). The part built photo shows where it lives on the layout. I'm wondering if there should be a cold water tank on the roof?

Popular Post grahame Posted December 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2020 Here's the entrance scene to my gasholder station in N/2mm based roughly on the one in the Old Kent Road in the 70s and 80s. It's not complete, there's plenty of details to make and add, but I'm going to give it a rest for now and get back to some more railway structure modelling for the layout: 11 11 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pylon King Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Just completed this 1:76 scale power grid model . The 132kV ’St Fergus Trident’ was first introduced up in Scotland and is one of several new designs replacing traditional electricity pylons. 15 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Popular Post acg5324 Posted December 15, 2020 RMweb Premium Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) This is the Hand and Flower pub, the third of three pubs on my Kensington Olympia N gauge layout. This is the only one of the three that’s still standing. Made with a mount board framework and plasticard walls and details. Some minor parts , weathering and chimney pots to add. One photo shows where it lives in relation to the layout. The blank wall is where the adjacent building will butt up to it.

Popular Post snitzl Posted December 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2020 (edited) Found a few images of the buildings scratchbuilt for Ilkeston Woodside MRC's 00 / 4mm layout of Kimberley ( G.N.R. / L.N.E.R. / Midland Railway ) back in 2012. All the buildings were constructed with a combination of plain styrene, embossed brick styrene and embossed tile styrene sheets. The more important station related buildings have individual roof tiles. One of the semi detached buildings on Newdigate St - at first glance, all of these buildings look the same, but they do have subtle differences. A view on the stone paving outside the old school house on Newdigate St, Kimberley, Notts. The old school building during construction. The rear of a house on Chapel St, Kimberley, Notts, - This is a view seen by the operators. Kimberley Signal Box ready for the layout. Kimberley Platform Shelter. Platform shelter as viewed by a passing rook. Thanks for looking : Snitzl Edited April 7, 2022 by snitzl Re-Upload Lost Images. 7 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahame Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 It's been a few weeks since anyone added to this thread so here's a scratch-built N/2mm row of shops. It does need some details added and finishing. For example the main block is not fixed down in place, signage needs adding and the newsagents need internal details made and fitted. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Many thanks Peter and Jamiel. Am planning on a few more buildings for this layout. All the usual suspects. Coal office with nameplate, goods lock up, a couple of corrugated lamp rooms, a line side hut, a tiny cafe/kiosk etc. But right now work is progressing on the signal box, based on the Williton one. After much thought I decided not to do an interior for a bunch of reasons. Might be something I'll re-visit one day though. George Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoombeTown Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 My first attempt at building a diorama. Scratchbuilt terraced house from Plasticard with 3D printed windows. The bridge uses Wills panels with plastruct t-beams and strip used to create the lattice. 12 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
