NRM breaking news "Man arrested for climbing on exhibits" He claims it was all in the interests of authenticity and WT members made him do it.

In passing sentence, the Judge noted the WT plea (himself being a secret member) and commuted a sentence of 100 lines, miss milk break and to sit in the naughty corner for one whole day.

I've got hold of some PRMRP Hymek light surrounds for my Heljan Warship project! The North British built locos had the Hymek marker light surrounds. I need to drill out for the bulbs but that can wait a while!!
I intend to model D845 Sprightly.

Phew, sounds like I got away lightly with that. He could have sentenced me to build another H class kit...

They are different on the one at York but I'm sure something can be worked out..

The concrete hard stand is now glued in place ready for the sleepers to be laid up to it.

More ground signals, these are ready for 3D printing now as well with the other ones.

 

[OzzyO]

Have you found out what colours that the ground signals show? Red then white, red then green or red, yellow then green?

Steve, by pure chance I know a stoker who worked on LMS and he drinks in the Legion He has a wealth of knowledge and loves talking about it, If there is anything you need to know let me know and I can ask away.
