  1. Ha - Missed that comment!! locos are changed in Eaglesham every week, but only in my loft. I am told that the football park at the lower end of the village was surveyed for the station that never got built, it could never have got any further as it is a stiff climb up through the village, I know as I am near the top!!

  3. Hope you didn't wait around for the 1E06 this morning, it failed at Uddingston and was towed back to Glasgow Central by 67003 reaching the terminus a whopping 210 minutes later!! Jim

  5. Hi Dave - that is home territory for me, many an afternoon you would have found my car parked exactly at that spot. I have a card index box stuffed full of photographs taken there I must get round to scanning these sometime, The variety of stock and haulage can be seen in my videos shot there - all on one afternoon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ47SReq68g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bi-JOlzPyfI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NHMdk992RQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSb7uihfSDQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcoEMkEJLY4 Jim
  6. Great photographs, any ideas what the "goalposts" (for the want of a better description) are in the last two photographs. Jim
  7. Thanks for that - I will add selling that off to my to-do list! Cheers Jim
  8. Hi all - I opened my latest acquisition tonight for a trial run, couple of immediate faults were apparent as a tender buffer plus another bit of metal dropped out. Spot of superglue gel sorted the buffer and I eventually traced the metal piece to be the block that sits between the reversing rod and the cab, another spot of glue and that was back in place. Put all the brake gear into place but I have one component that I cannot place, anyone help? Couple of views of the loco at Northbridge The loco comes DCC ready, including a chip. Since I am a DC man the chip will be no use to me, is this chip worth anything? Jim

  13. Woo Hoo!! I really nice Saturday, SWIMBO went off to town and left me to my own devices and my team beat their local rivals 3-1. I used the time productively and finished the wiring for Mavisbank signals. I only took the one photo with the phone to check the aspects, this threw up a bad back light leak on the platform 3 starter, needs blanking off, and the shunt signal from the shed is the wrong way round. The white is in the wrong position 20150912_140415 by Lowland Locomotives, on Flickr Jim
