Morning all. There's discussion on another thread about creation of a stand alone signalling thread. In the meantime it was suggested that signalling queries could go into the PW area. So... Polsarrett is my unashamedly not really prototypical foray into building a small cameo layout in 4mm...

Hello from the Blackmore Vale. We thought it best to introduce ourselves to the layouts thread, it began some twenty two years ago and has faltered rather badly along the way although the original shed is still the home of the layout. One of the originators* is undoubtedly infamous on other...

I thought it was time i posted something other than in the 'Cameo Competition' section. Some time ago i purchased an LSWR Terrier, an old Ks white metal kit that somebody had previously built. It was a none runner but the painting and lining on the body was superbly done. The whole kit looked...

Morning all.. I thought I would, from time to time, post some images of weathering. I generally use just Humbrol weathering powders, sealed with Humbrol acrylic powders when done. The only paint that is used is the Humbrol Dark Earth aerosol sprayed on the underframes of some of tge wagons...

I have had a long term ambition to build a model of Bodmin station. Most of the model making I do for my self is aimed at this. I've got a plan for it but at over 7metres long, it won't fit in my 3.1 metre work room. When my workshop was downstairs it would or could of been set up through the...

Evening all. Just thought I would introduce myself. I model in 00 Gauge using RTR stock and locos. Main interests revolve around the former lines of the dear old S&DJR, Somerset end, and those odd corners of the L&SWR. I hope to post some images and a summary of my current layouts in due...

With the usual caveat that this may or may not happen, though we are (finally) in a position to have a house - and thus walls - of our own and I have one, and possibly two, walls of the end of garden office (10' 6" x 10' 6"). Going all the way round is out and I want to do something that will...

Hi all. Time to introduce myself. Some of you may know or recognise my username, (i decided to stick with the same one) as a few others have confessed, i have come from the other side. After reading through some of the posts here, it would appear i have found my home. The modelling standards of...

I thought best to start this as a separate thread as it's a real break away from my usual North Eastern builds. That said if I were to choose to build something from another company, the LSWR stable isn't that far removed from all things Worsdell so i'm by no means unhappy. My chosen loco will...

I have made a start with this Ace kit S15. There is an option to get the Urie built ones with stepped footplate, This is the one that I want build. It is not for me but I would like a Urie S15 so it will be good practice. First I had a look at what was in the kit to enable the stepped version...

What is Pencarrow? It's a 7mm BLT layout I'm slowly building which has for its inspiration the ex LSWR lines in the Bodmin, Wenford and Wadebridge area. It's set in the late 50s /early 60s. I started the project in 2013 as a complete 7mm novice and have recorded progress to date here: Pencarrow...

Williams Models have, in conjunction with Tony Riley, introduced a model of a LSWR round ended wagon to D1309. I'm no expert on LSWR matters, but the body represents a four plank version, the lower plank being wider than the other three. There are one or two photos in LSWR Wagons Vol 1 but I...
