New Railway Modellers Forums

So it's been over a decade since I last posted in this thread, but a couple of years ago I went back through all my Wenchford OO videos and made compliations of them and put them on my youtube channel, these can all be viewed on the links below, perhaps some potato camera based nostalgia for some ol...

Steve, I have seen on many forums you have 3D printed many wonderful things, that would really aid other modellers too, i know a coupl of these are available on your shapeways (i have bought 2 already!) but will any others ever be available? I must admit i am eyeing up that D49 (i have morayshire pl...

Standard gauge Dolgoch? Baxter on the bluebell is exactly that, very similar design, built by the same company too.

Hi Dan, Taken a while to get back ...... I suppose light is one factor & that usually has an effect on the depth of focus field. It's only good layouts where I want to see as much detail as I can that I really notice. As to best - I scan through so many that picking one out is difficult - beari...

Hi Dan, We had missed having you around. Shame about the std '0' collection as that all looked so good in comparison with smaller 4 & 2 mm stuff. Oh yes I do remember the '00' loft set up ! I'm going to be very rude now ..... It's a shame your photography isn't anywhere near as good as your mod...

A new addition to the layout this weekend, the NGG16 has finally been built and today ran a loaded test train over a round trip of the line. https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/q75/s720x720/1150814_576997755691065_957849999_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-p...

Not posted on this thread for a while, well how times change, I now only have three 7mm locomotives, here are some photos of 2 of them running at West Lulworth over the past few weeks along with my collection of wagons and a photo of one of my coaches, a rebuilt beaver tail. https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-...

Quite an interesting layout Dan with plenty of operating potential; I like O16.5 and have a few bits to play about with at some point. What happened to the standard gauge 7mm stock and layout? Most of the standard gauge 7mm stuff i had was sold last year, I don't have the space for a standard gauge...

well after having not used this forum for a long time I decided it was time to return and to show off the development of my newest project, Trwyn-y-diafol, ('The Devil's Nose' in English) it is an O16.5 railway running from Cwm Lydia (In my kitchen) up through a zig zag to Wenchford (in the living r...
