Model Railway - What's your latest acquisition?

Posted at 07:59:15 Tue 19 Mar 2013

What's your latest aquisition?


Here's my latest purchase, a Tri-ang-Hornby R.754 M7 in BR Black livery.

The box was tatty, crew were missing and the BR totem transfers on the tank sides were part missing as per normal.

The model is slowly being restored, a fresh box mint was found on ebay with incorrect labels (the one on the right) and I have crew and original totem transfers a plenty in stock, I will post stages of the restoration at intervals for all my friends on here to see as they take place.

Here's the loco pre-restoration but with nice new original 40+ BR Totem transfers put on the side tanks, a packet of the original transfers is posed by the loco for reference.

Hope all at Hornby like what I am doing to their old locos.


Enjoy!

Sorry Jacob it has taken me two days and about 60 attempts to get the picture of the J15 on here. I'll have a go later.

Trouble is I have pictures of the layout on my ipad but it says they're the wrong type of picture when I try to download them. There's plenty on the Model Railway Forum.

Rather than using your iPad to take the pictures, how about you use a camera, upload them to a computer, throw the USB port and then find the pictures in your 'Libaries' to post them on the forum instead?

I can do that but can't be bothered to switch on the laptop. 

Like I said I posted lots of layout pictures on the other forum.

 

I'll have a go when we get back from Holland next month.

What do you mean by "the other forum", WTD? Which forum is that?

 

Enjoy you're holiday! Laughing

This might work. If it does you can look at all my pictures by selecting previous or next.

Ah, I see which fourm you mean now, however, I have neverd of that forum before and I have never used it.

 

I don't know if that did work as how you intendid it to. The hyperlink was for the log in page.

 

EDIT:

It looks as if you have to have an account on that forum, to view the threads. I haven't clue what to do now! Laughing
