Nice work Roly.

You've captured the look of the prototype well.

What will be the next project?

Cheers,

Mark

Absolutely gorgeous modelling Dave.

I love the way the curve flows and the attention to detail.

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks for sharing this Dom.

An interesting and informative article on the workings of your job.

Good to see the city at night as well.

Do Halling make thIs class of tram?

Cheers,

Mark

Really beautiful modelling Dave.

Looking forwards to seeing it finished....

Cheers,

Mark

Hi Will,

Thanks for your reply.

There's quiet a bit of excitement about this little loco and what else could appear in the range if it progresses.

Some peeps on NGRM have started work on their's stripping off the paint and detailing.  It looks as if the 3D printing folk are going to have a field day here with Skaloey.

The face is plastic and from what I've seen easily removable.  CWR are already selling printed smokebox doors:

I'm looking forward to getting on with this project and I've another one too.

So those are the RT sanding rods, are they? I'd heard that they were a tad too short? How did you get on with them, Andrew?

Hi Tim,

See the link below re: the RT sanding rods on my model of 9717

http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/blog/1338/entry-11748-pannier-capers-part-3/

That looks fab.

Really like the detailing and those RT sanding rods are rather good.

Absolutely brilliant Mikkel,  

Wonderful story telling as ever and beautiful modelling.

Perhaps we could have a version in the style of The Bridge with an Edwardian Saga and Henrik on the case? 

Cheers,

Mark

Great shot!

Seasons greetings to you too Andy!

Merry Christmas,

Mark

Absolutely wonderful modelling Ian.

Looks superb and looking forwards to seeing it insitu on the layout.

Cheers,

Mark

Hi Dom,

Forgot mention. Will any BEMO purchases be made in light of this visit?

Thanks again.

Mark

Brilliant set of photos Dom and a lovely narrative to accompany them.

Thanks for posting them.

Cheers,

Mark

Looks like a good choice of controller Pete. Glad you have enjoyed test running your newly chipped Class 37 as well

Sound on Kyle will certainly add to the effect. A few gull cries will be good as well

Cheers,

Mark

Wallander has nothing on Benton by the looks of things..

Great stuff as usual Mikkel.

Roll on Part 3...

Cheers,

Mark

Good to see an update to keep the 'mojo' going Pete

I do love those drawings. Always a pleasure to see your 'thoughts and ideas' down on paper.

Cheers,

Mark

I like the finish on this one mark, just the right amount of weathering, well done mate.

Thanks Roly

I didn't want to go to mad with the weathering being a bit of a pet loco

They'll be something a bit smaller next! 

Cheers,

Mark

Hi Mark. What a nice machine! That flush glazing looks very convincing from *both* sides. Thanks for the tip on the sheeting, hadn't thought of tape.

 

So what's next? You weren't thinking of resting, were you?

Thanks Mikkel

As for another project I've a number of locos (57xx/8750/4575/?93xx) to renumber to NA allocated ones and detail.  

There's also a number of wagons as well which need starting or finishing 

I've also got a 64xx which I fancy converting to a 74xx if I'm feeling brave enough to take a knife to the cab/bunker area.

I've just been reading your Bachmann 64xx thread by the way looking for some tips.

So no rest......

Sounds like a good idea Alex!

Nope.

Get on with it then!.......

Well jealous Mark, I'll do you a swap for my 7804 then....

Thanks Robin...

I'm not sure about a swap but one day 7802 will have to visit ANTB!

As for 7804 have you got that chimney off yet?

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks for posting these lovely photos Dom.

Congratulations on passing your driving assessment too!

Cheers,

Mark

Nice to see an update on these Andy.

Lovely crisp work with a great attention to detail.

The pictures don't really give an idea of how small everything is either.

Glad to see the Woodhead Transfers have been resurrected once more as well...

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks Steve.

I'm pleased with them

I do like the Co-op but in the 70's/80's it always looked a bit grim!

I've the TVG wagons and a few others to weather as well as finish building a few kits.

Cheers,

Mark

Now that's looking good.

Excellent presentation as ever.  I can't believe how fast you knocked all that up.

Look forwards to seeing this progress. A great idea and one which utilises existing stock and fiddle yard.

Cheers,

Mark

Nice job Mark and it will be interesting to see how you do the loads.I'm surprised that Slaters/POWsides still supply the sides with no interior detail as modellers are more discerning now and want more for their money . They're not cheap kits especially as Oxford are now doing rtr wagons for
