[angelah]

Lokkin' good

Hi Angelah,

this is a pic of what it looks like around here.

based on our local dump.

Cheers,

Bill.

Hi Bill,
Yes, that is looking good. How large will the actual complete route be?

Blessings,

Angela

Hi Angelah,

it is only a tail layout on 3 baseboards, I have dressed it up a bit more

it is mostly my own stuff that has been released on this map.

Will upload the skip trucks and the industrial bins later today or tomorrow.

Cheers,

Bill.

Ta muchly

Hi Bill,
And Ta Muchly, transalted it means thanks very much! One of our 'quaint' English sayings.
But seriously, yes, they are going to be a great help not only to me but I am sure many folk who have skip bins on the routes so I am looking forward to them.

Hope your latest creation goes well.

Bless you,

Angela

And I had better translate transalted!!

Angela's Truck

I have started a little truck for your skip idea. I want to add your picture to this asset, but I need you permission.

Hi AC,
Exactly who are you aiming this thread at please? Always a good idea to put the name of the person at the top, as I have, although admittedly I have shortened yours.

Hello Bill,
And I do appreciate your last post, I will be looking out for the assets.

Bristol Temple Meads is coming along now. Today I will be moving from the east end of the MPD out along to Bath tracks as far as the first short tunnel that will be where the next portals are located.
Still a fair bit to do much not as much as before... ha ha.
The only snag is, and I realised a couple of days ago, is that I have not aligned the route correctly to the compass. Really stupid of me, I just didn't think about it when I started. But it did begin only as an experiment so maybe that's why I didn't take much notice... it just grew - and grew - and grew!

Bless you,

Angela

Your the babe here hon, these assets are your idea. Just trying to add to what Willem is doing for you. But I looked at his bins, and they are abit large and not products, so I may make a smaller urban style to run through the towns. And I must admit I know little about what happens down under, maybe his is the right size there, but what I know of America, they are about five foot tall so people can get things in them. i also want to make this to add a garbage truck bed and use for containers to be several kinds of truck.
(PS: to Angelah)

Skips/trucks

Dear Willem2,
Yeah, have them now and some on the route. I must admit they are a bit big but not much and that truck looks like a Ford to me, one common in the UK.
Will you be uploading just the truck alone? I mean without a skip attached?
That would be rather nice, the icing on your cake I think.

Here is a snap :-

Nice, eh?

Blessings,

Angela

Hello AC,
As you can see from the snap of BTM, the skip trucks fit fairly well. But skips are always handy, the more the merrier in my view, there are loads of different companies around London running around picking them up. So new names/styles are good.

Bless you all for your help,

Angela

Hi Angelah,

Looks pretty good, the size of the bin and truck where taken from a Aussie manufacturers website so we must be making them bigger here or we have more rubbish.
Also I had already started on some small trucks as per screenshot

But I can do an empty skiptruck aswell as one without the hoist.

Let me know.

Cheers,

Bill.

Trucks

Hi Bill,
They look really good. You're getting the hang of trucks!

Yes, a skippy without a bin on it would be good, just the arms sticking up. Hope that's not a lot of trouble?

I think the cab style will pass okay for a UK lorry too, so no probs.

Good on ya!

Blessings,

Angela

Here is another type of truck I would like to see in Trainz, if anyone is interested; the Yard Goat:

[stagecoach]

It depends on the cubic capacity as to the size of the skip. see this site http://www.topskips.com/skip-hire-sizes.php for more info on uk skip sizes.

Half cab

Here is another type of truck I would like to see in Trainz, if anyone is interested; the Yard Goat:

http://www.norliftor.com/Kalmar Yard Goat 2.jpg

Is the cab centered or to one side?

 

[Euphod]

To the left side. These tractors are used to move trailers at large distribution yards.

 

[American_Connections]

Du!!

To the left side. These tractors are used to move trailers at large distribution yards.

I just did a search and found the answer, but thanks for yours too! Is a bit like my Ahsan dock Lorry, maybe I can do this too.

Hi Angelah,

the empty truck will be in the next upload.

and a few more to join them.

Cheers,

Bill.

Hi Bill,

I have been watching this thread since it first started. It was a great idea from Angelah, rather strange no one thought of it before :hehe:

Anyway, these items are great. Many thanks for them and to Angelah for the idea.

Good selection

Dear Bill,
Now that's what I call a good selection! And the empty skip truck too, wow. Many thanks for your efforts and as we can see from this thread, there are others who feel the same as I do. You have filled a gaping hole...

Bless you,

Angela
