June Gallery - Entries Here

Post by philipy » Thu Mar 20, 2025 7:35 am

Ok, the theme for the next Gallery will be: Road Vehicles on the Railway This includes horse, steam and mechanically powered vehicles, but no motorised mice, etc!

Rules as always, and closing date for entries will be midnight UK time on June 1st.

Please note that entries MUST be sized to 800 x 600 maximum, or the portrait equivalent. Any that are larger will be disallowed. It isn't difficult to do, but ask if you don't know how to do it.

Here comes mine:

It is still a work in progress. A KLV20 (basically a VW t2 type bus on rails).
Quite a few were converted. Some made it into preservation.

In 5" gauge and with a "small" block of lead underneath it will be able to pull the not to scale driver.
Two motors, chain drive to both axles.

If you mix your small block of lead with acid...
You might have the makings of a power source?
