Cheers Daz, now you tell me

Been taking some more pictures of the 67:
On the Depot:




Through the station:


And a Video:


When i posted the picture of the modern house's front garden with the two blokes talking, i decided to add a back garden with a tree and shed (for model railway purposes obviously!):



On an earlier post i showed i bought a truck,Im planning to "anglicise" it, this is what the body currently looks like:


Hopefully it should be fairly easy to do being my first attemt at this sort of thing.I just need to decide on what to do with it,any ideas?
Thanks for looking,
Ste

Installed a few of my street lights from Layouts4u this evening, powered off an old H&M controller. It's a shame i havn't got a road surface, more fences or grass yet The two vehicles are the Routemaster bus (it's time travelled!) from Oxford diecast and the new truck that im going to re-paint:







Next time, il'l make sure i remove the dust of the bus roof!

Talking of lights does that 67 not come with working lights? It looks like it should do

I know what you mean, i'm DC too so if I want them bright I have to floor it with the controls!

I like the look of the Dapol MK3s, may be tempted to ditch my Farish ones on Fleabay and get some shiny new Dapol ones!

They are very nice coaches, interiors, light bar ready, smooth running, simples!
