Great model - looks spot on!

Thanks Peter- those two look great examples - with 12v they’ll have plenty of power to call on - yes I was very pleased as it was a few months since I’d run this one and it performed perfectly out of the box - now fancying doing the Ruby http://pdf-models.com/steam-locos/ruby/ 0D66AB5C-68AB-4505-880...

Thanks guys - it’s taken a while to get it balanced weight wise but it is now running sweet - as you say Tom a great shunting engine for a few sidings - a bit under powered for the main line

Here’s Wellington running smoothly, her rechargeable is still running well

If I had a 'Bucket List' this would be one of the first items on it....... one of our esteemed colleagues on the Forum, Rik, very kindly offered to visit the B&UR and shoot some video film. This has now been done in Rik's highly professional style and the finished film is now available on YouTu...

Great pictures Peter- setting the standard we all aspire to!

Very impressive Rod - well done!

That's looking very good - could that wall on the right be a quarry face?! Like the slate wagons too - Lineside Hut? My dad had a layout in the loft when I was young, with old doors as baseboards, resting on tea chests, all pretty rickety I think. We didn't use it very often, but I still remember t...

Hi everyone- just a quick update - now renting a house in Yorkshire- no garden but after going to the 16mm Yorkshire Show I have rediscovered my mojo - so I have a few kits to wok on and i’ve Unpacked my track and i’m In the process of laying out a loop and sidings in the loft space - no live steam ...
