On my Glasgow North thread, I showed the hidden incline required to get trains up from the cement terminal to the main board height. This is the...
Jim, I'm more than happy to discuss Strathmore Route here. I've drawn a few Strathmore trackplans, all to scale including Coupar Angus and Alyth...
It's funny you mention Luncarty (and Stanley), as I've also drawn a scale plan of Stanley Junction which would lend itself to an exhibition...
Yes. The reason for the project time frame and location is to enable A4s to be run on the Glasgow-Aberdeen trains. I have four A4s, two of which...
I've been fooling around on AnyRail and sketched out a possible alternative Railways of Perth. Perth Shed remains where it historically was, and...

With the incline tested and satis., attention has turned to the cement Terminal. This will be the first part of the layout to have track...
After construction, a test. The cement terminal will almost exclusively be served by Type 2s, and certainly no steam, so a 26 is used for the...
Progress, of a slow nature. My mental health gets in the way and there are good days and bad days. The worst of the days sees me compiling a list...
Great set of updates, Steve. Things coming together and a nice approach you have to modelling. Best Scott
And they are all complete!
The irony, Aus has import controls AFTER the rabbit epedemic, the toad, epedemic, the rat epedemic, (the pom epedemic) et al, et al...
Thanks Pete. It's certainly ambitious and determined to see it realised. Best Scott
When you price up track for twenty sidings at 6ft each, 40 odd points and associated motors, motor control, etc., and then factor in the reduced...
A wee update on the Fleets. Starting with the Diesels: 08 - x3 [One green, two Intercity (one is a donor for a Maunsell Shunter kit* the other...
