UK Screenshots (Hi Res Version)

[tmz06003]

that warship does look nice they must have been the first to carry the BR Blue livery because they didn't even see the end of Steam all of them where scraped by late 1967.

D602 was the other NBL Warship to receive blue livery but with a yellow warning panel, I believe it was repainted before D600. Both are available on the DLS.

Although they were withdrawn at the end of 1967, D601 remarkably survived in Barry Scrapyard until June 1980 with D6122, it's a great pity these two NBLs were not saved.

If one survvied that llong it really should have been saved if only for display it is a great shame.

I cabbed those two at Barry in 1979 but sadly dropped my camera and crocked it so I couldn't get any photos.Part of the reason why they were scrapped was because Woodham was a steam man and they were the last diesels in the yard, and the other was that they had aluminium body shells so they were quite valuable.

and a few shots from my Malton & Driffield Route. I'm thinking about running a Metrovick Co-Bo/NBL Warship combo but think I can't "bellow" loud enough :hehe:

all praise to chrisaw and tmz06003 for bringing us this wonderful beast.

I read in another history of Falcon that when BR bought it was sold to them with the condition that when it was disposed of it MUST go for scrap so that's what happened.One of the biggest shames was NBL prototype 10800 which survived till about 1975 as a testbed loco.

Hi Max.

In the first shot, there's a loco on the far side of the track. Would you be kind enough to tell me what it's called please (if it's on the DLS of course)?

Thanks.

 

[kimmy]

pfx the loco on the far side is called a class 150 dmu they are on the dls uploaded by marky7890 and there's quite a lot of them too.

Good luck with the project, I'll be interested in progress on this one! We were in Scarborough on holiday a couple of months ago.

I hope you have that extremely long bench in place on the main platform ?

Oh nuts. I deleted a crucial word from my request. I meant the loco shed. Eejit that I am.

 

[maxwell1991]

Aha. Never mind. The shed is also by marky7890. It's called Longrock TMD Maintenance Shed. There's the kuid as well in case you can't find it 179051:1062:1

I don't mean to be short at all but this is a question which was been asked countless times. Try this which is actually within this section of the forum.
