Sussex 1952 - Wainwright D Class No.31737 captured just south of Culvert Junction on a Tonbridge to Brighton Service, rumbling over Hamsey Bridge as the water laps peacefully on the shores of the River Ouse. The 1000-year-old Hamsey Church stands tall in the background overlooking the tranquil...

You always show my little model so much love Ken - makes me proud I made it in the first place!☺️

Lovely shots Ken! Glad to see that you're still getting mileage out of my B4! Speaking of mileage... Gotta start testing out Ant's new Ivatts! 1960s Southern Region - Ex-LMS Ivatt 2MT No. 41301 racing through Hove on a Horsham to Brighton Working.

Now THAT's an interesting find Annie! Where did you pick that up at? 🤔

Absolutely Marvelous!! I see a Signal Box reading "Newick and Chailey" in the background... :sneaky: Are you attempting a Bluebell Railway Route, Ken?

Working along the Cuckoo Line again from Groomsbridge to Polegate but this time with a train "out of time"... Test Running Ed's new SECR Birdcage Coaches behind Connor's fantastic SECR H Class - a big thank you to Ed for these wonderful coaches. They are every bit as majestic as the real ones...

Thanks Meadow! It's my route but it's grown so large that it's now a WIP Collaboration between Frank, Paul, my friend Bot.exe from Discord, myself and countless others who have made contributions to the project. Frank did the DEMs, Bot laid the track, Paul makes the stations and lineside...

Some more shots at Lewes Station:

Nothing Immoral I can assure you! This is a family friendly forum after all! Just a soldier and his fiancé meeting in secret to avoid her disapproving father. Old Groundskeeper Markus and his dog Bumpus are the only ones who know. 🤫

Dawn comes to Lewes, Sussex Circa 1954. A local trainspotter has graciously provided these shots taken on a cool spring morning just before the turn of the decade. Standard 4MT No.76005 pulls into Lewes Yard with an overnight parcel working from London - looking quite traveled for such a new...

Dearnby & District - December 1950 BR Standard Class 4 No. 75021 races through Penbury with a rake of empty Pullman Stock for Dearnby Central. Dearnby began playing host to a select number of special Pullman Trains for Holiday Traffic at the turn of 1950s. Five years later the crews have the...

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks that. 😁 The BR1Bs give the Standard 4 a much better all-around figure and do indeed make them look like mini Standard 5s. Given how much of the Southern Network was electrified by the time the 4s appeared, I'm not surprised that such a measure was...

You're extremely generous Valliant; I sincerely can't thank you enough! 😁 To be honest, Southern Region 4MT Moguls actually sound fantastic too! I know of two that were allocated to Brighton Shed in January of 1954 numbered 76005 and 76006. There were about four or five more, but I don't know...

HOLY SMOKE THESE ARE AMAZING!! :love: I hate to ask but is there any way you could release a version of these with SR Discs instead of lamps? The Ivatt 2MTs were quite prevalent on the Ex-LBSCR Lines of the Southern Region in the 1960s and I'd love to field these on some of the major areas on...
