This is my newly built station at Tuddsley.
The railway is now the Mortenhoe and Tuddsley Branch. (though I will keep FGLR for posterity) Its main role is the transport of china clay and argicultural goods.

Am I missing something or is posting images from an ipad not possible?

Don't think it is - certainly isn't from an iPhone, so its probably the same operating set up......
Nice pics

Re posting from Apple Kit. I have thus far not managed to Post from an iPhone, but then I have not tried since the new Forum came on line. However the iPad is very possible. Problem is the Pictures are too large. So you need an App to reduce them to around 200Kb. I use an app called "Reduce" by Tobias Windenmann. I think it cost a couple of quid or so. I use it to get the pics to size, the first time I used it I made an Album in my iPad Pictures that I knew I would use all the time (I called it "Reduce Export"). Then when posting I post from this Album knowing that the pics are all the correct size. One problem exists with this app that I have found, when you open it it does not open! Just open again and it will open correctly. Wierd eh?

If you have any problems with the App, I will be more than happy to help. But it is like most of the Apple Kit simples once you have fathomed it out.

Re your pics of Live Steam, you could just let your engine be Stationary and blowing off. Take your picture then and you will have great Steam Effects, just not from the Chimney. Better than trying to manipulate a Camera and the RC at the same time, also do not forget that the iPad has a Camera and also a Great Video Camera too. Ideal for posting to You Tube.

Good luck with your revised line,
JonD

The cold damp air is great for steam.

Wait, your buildings are of Real Stone ?

 

[Cyclone]

Made from concrete. Very sturdy and look good IMO. Maybe a touch under scale and some detail missing, also can't light them.
I hunk they're great and have a load more, just waiting for amazon to deliver the round toit.
