My other half says you should look at the body side profiles, the top needs to be slanted in more at the top.

From me Considering you don't look to be working from plans it is a nice model so far. Keep up the good work

From a newbie, it is a good start, however, I think he's overdone the cant rail quite a bit, the doors don't extend past the cant rail.

Scratchlight, if you need photos, do talk to me as I can supply any photo you like, all I have to do is go down to my local station. On the other hand, I should go back to mine

Oh, was there a diesel at the front at that point or had that cleared? Apparently the fireman called in sick, so until a relief was found they had to use diesel haulage!
Thanks

If I was fireman, I'd call in sick too. It's the worst job I've ever done on the railway! Hehe

Im not sure what was happening with the A4 but tornado's fireman seemed ok, despite he put in to much coal and made black smoke.

Is there anywhere I can obtain these plans? I'm working from simply a picture of the real thing. However I attempted an TSO this morning with a bit more attention. I also tried an interior

The original is on the right hand side, I know there isn't much difference. Plus, I don't think I will make a big deal out of this, it's only something to supply me until I get the Railwaves version.

tornado had an ews skip on the front from victoria until they found a relief fireman, 60019/4492 was being prepped for the DCE with tangmere at the other end to take the return.

To keep everyone happy, here's a small tester image I took...

Too many steam and silly EMU's on here, let's have some proper locomotive screenshots, all from my tweaked ECML. :hehe:

Thanks to warbo40, nattydredd and uky901y for the white wheel rims which enhance our tractors and duffs immensely.

Cheerz. ex-railwayman.

I thought steam locomotives were the proper locomotives..
Nice shots, cant get enough of the 47's and 37's.

They are nice but not as nice as THIS http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGzhcxqmX1M&feature=related

Q6 number 63381 heads south through Murton station on her way to Hawthorn Combined Coal and Coke plant. Nothing remains here now.

 

[hope5]

It certainly looks nice, but i feel a bit sorry for the ex 37, they are my favorite diesel loco's after all.
(on subject) i haven't got any pictures to post at the moment, but again great shots all.

Fear not, I speak from experience of many of the non glamourous tasks on a heritage railway.

@ hope5, I know what you mean. The IÉ class 141 (below) is my favourite though it doesn't belong in this thread.

Indeed,filling in those muddy boxes are enough to drive a chap insane!

Working on a route, started off as a route of my local railway, the Stradbally Woodland Railway but it's turned into a full blown route, SWR will have to wait for awhile

Excellent shot Barry1994

@PFX thanks , The tracks are reskins of Samplaire's superb 2009 build Polish track that's on the DLS .
I've got permission from Samplaire to reskin and upload them . I'm building up a selection of tracks with different ballast , rail and fixture types with UK style textures primarily for use with the new version of Midshire .
