Hmmmmm I can't see the images. I'll need to look into that. I am using an I Pad. Don't know if that makes any difference. I'll be back. Cheers Toto
Ohhh boy, They look amazing. Just been doing a little window shopping at a Hattons looking at O gauge loco's. Who do you use for yours ? Cheers Toto
I have two castles both kit built from JLTRT kits plus a King from the same stable. I have a DJH Brittania built by them. I also have a Heljan Hymek & western both detailed up using castings from JLTRT and etches from Pete Harvey. The next steam kit will be a 9F from MOK & Falcon should be ready in the new year from Heljan. The new O8 from Dapol looks very nice. Here's the Hymek & Western, the teddy belongs to a mate. I'll pop some more pictures up showing the detailing soon Attached files
Bogie details including new castings, Pete Harvey etched steps to replace the chunky plastic ones Attached files
Very nice work Steve I love the locos and the weathering is first class , keep `em coming mate between us we will soon convert the rest . Cheers, Pete.
Here's the Western, I moved up the headcode box by 1.5mm, added Jltrt bogie side frames new lamp brackets pipes & couplings. I can't take credit for the weathering that's down to Fred Lewis

Back to Ranelagh Bridge, here's the signal gantry built by the very talented Jon Fitness Attached files
What a difference these things make. I like the change of step detail in particular. Just shows the extent of the inadequacy of the factory supplied bits really. Nice work. Cheers Toto
Here's a cracking Ariel shot showing the cramped nature of the prototype which is perfect for me as I can model or to scale. Attached files
Talented indeed, Where do these guys call home then. We could do with seeing more of their handywork. great stuff. toto
great potential for some of the buildings in the arial shot as well. gives a good sense of the geography of the whole area. cheers toto
I've knocked up some of the buildings out of foam Board and card board to get a feel for there size, these will all be replaced by laser cut kits. The tenements along the back will also be laser cut kits. Attached files
