I like the masonry walls :love: I see a brace and bit in one of your photos. Are you kidding me? They make fun of me when I pull mine out. I don't think they even know what it is. :thinking:

I drill all my metal and wood with me trusty old brace, its why it takes me forever to get anything done,

The usual rain and wind here, but after fixing Frank's railbus I got out between squalls, and ran the thing, looks well and suits the branchline well, ​

​

the branchline was built as a narrow gauge originally with 32mm track, only one yard remains with an old cabboose at Deliverance, the junction as was planned and never built,​

hope someone else has had better weather today,​

please post any nice pics,
​

 

[Don Gilham]

Looks very nice, Pete

The railcar would be a bit small for me - or should that be big ? !

 

[MR SPOCK]

Well I get confused as well,this has 1/24 in the catalog, but the cabboose in the background is 1/20? I got so confused with ng , it still looks good tho' whatever the make and scale,

Looks very nice, Pete

Nice Pics Pete , some very long trains there

 

[MR SPOCK]

Thanks Steve, the extra ore cars make a difference, now it goes all the way around I can sit down a while and rest watching it all happen, amazing the time has gone so fast and its took three years to join up a circle!!

Nice Pics Pete , some very long trains there

[Richie]

Looking good Pete nice to see you have a complete circuit to run all these Rio Grande loco's that keep appearing on your line

 

[MR SPOCK]

chuckling as well but really all that stuff belongs to other people, the railbus is here for repair and the FA/B are now painted nice dull black, there is a ore hopper and a boxcar running around but I try and maintain interest with the minority groups by keeping these hahah hope you got some sun today been dreadful here this weekend

regards Pete

I had planned on making a total run around film today but my camera finally died on me, so its a half way round video and all my pics from today are canned as well, so hope someone else posts some nice piccies from todays action​

not sure if this link will work http://youtu.be/_cVLZRec6NE[/center]​

 

[nicebutdim]

Wow, what a layout you have! Some really nice long runs there, top class!

 

[MR SPOCK]

I managed to salvage some pics from sunday before the fogg came in,​

​

using the Mallet as a test for the curves and snaggs,​

​

​

the battery jury rig aint pretty but it works fine, ​

​

​

as you can see the double track loop is already planned when the money is syphoned off​

​

 

[Richie]

Mallet looks good Pete could you make the battery look like a transformer load by adding electric conductors
