Has it been scrapped then Jorders

 

[Dave]

There's probably some earlier in this Thread, somewhere...
..and here's one from a very old Thread on this Forum, Here



I got it R-T-R off Ebay, I think it's a Worsley Works Barclay. That is - I know it's a Barclay 'cos that's what the plate says over the radiator; I'm not sure who the kit manufacturer was...
It's in EWS Maroon, by the way.

Mercian Models.

Just need an old pram in the cut... maybe a coot or three...

Might be the Barclay in the cut if it's overweight!

I got a telling off for suggesting clichés in the cut Jordan

 

[jonte]

I agree, Jordan, close-ups can be really cruel.

In fairness, it reveals the lovely weathering job on that bothey(?) .

Love it!

If only I had the space for something similar.. Looking great!

I'd forgotten how much I like the idea of the inside of the ruined building as a view blocker. And how much I like the rest of the layout come to that!

1.5 bed flat...

[Scale7JB]

Still a no go, I forgot to mention a 1.5 bed with a one year old!

I have to admit though, I suddenly had a 7mm NG urge at Telford whilst walking past the wright lines stand. I suddenly fancied a couple of square foot baseboard with some Roy Link track, an armoured simplex and a couple of wagons. It took a surprising amount of self control to make myself see sense.. That and the cost of the wright lines kits of course..

Have you considered utilising the space in the boot of your car for a covert layout? You might get away with it until the next big shopping trip or weekend away, at which point there would be some explaining to do ("I was just moving it for a friend and……….").

Not a bad idea except, the boot of the car is full of photography gear and footplate clothes...that there isn't space for in the flat..

Neat - a U.S. outline spring trap.

What bait do you use to attract the boxcar into the spring trap, and does it despatch it quickly?

 

[ceejaydee]

JB - No room at home, boot full, boxfile been done..... so you have the opportunity to build the first layout in a roofbox

My apologies for such a Thulish idea

 

[Osgood]

Now that I didn't see coming! Wonderful.

 

[Yorkshire Dave]

without worrying too much at all about prototype accuracy!!

At the end of the day this becomes insignificant..... as long as you enjoyed yourselves and your son's mate retains his interest . One more potential convert to O scale.

Hi Jordan,

Invite him to WT & have a look round.

Gosh, doesn't the 08 look massive compared to the Terrier in the last picture

 

[Rob Pulham]

I saw my first Dapol 08 in the flesh at Shildon on Tuesday and the first thing that struck me was how big it was when compared to the Terrier - Those along with a few Dapol wagons were the only O Gauge items that I could find at the toy/train fair held there so I spent all of a £1 on a book for Chris.
