    Indeed you can, I wish something else could be used.
    Good work can be ruined by those grade decals.

    All liveries should be already treated like models. It’s what I have always done.
    Here some examples. They must look perfect. IMG_8789.jpeg IMG_7692.jpeg IMG_7694.jpeg IMG_7622.jpeg IMG_7133.jpeg To look like models and there for be treated and respected as one.
    I love looking at my work as seen in LE and in photos. It’s a collection of Models.

    That’s the whole ethos of my work and approach. To be near accurate like models.
    So good idea, build a model collection up. Why I want to speak to Hornby.

    TSLP✌.

    Hey are you going to add any details like this. IMG_9483.jpeg IMG_9530.jpeg IMG_9534.jpeg It helps set liveries off. It’s all in the details as they say:)
    Even did the letters by hand in this one, no set fonts on TSW4.

    TSLP✌.

    I’m making the liveries based on how they look fresh from when you purchased it, so no details. Mainly making these based around Tri-ang, Dublo, and the sorta older Hornby models.
    Thanks for asking!

    Good morning. Sorry for my late response. I needed to iron out a few things. I've had a few runs with the 56 and I'm very impressed. I'll try posting some photos I took later on. I'd say my only piece of feedback I have is with the rear cab. I noticed on the front cab, it has the grey window border, but the rear one doesn't have this. I guess my question is was this intentional? But apart from that, it looks great. My only suggestion I have for you is if you could consider the class 69s, which are rebuilt 56s. Keep up the good work :)

    Thanks for the feedback! As for the rear cab issue, I didn’t realise that, I think I did some editing to the livery after I took the Burn Naze picture, and it appears the rear window border disappeared! Don’t worry, I’ll fix it later.

    Hello All! TTB is here and I have a little teaser for an upcoming scenario.
    Its title is taken from one of my cancelled scenarios, so there is a hint.
    See you when I reveal it!

    Thanks relating to the photo.
    As for Scenarioes, I’ve only done like 1 in the TTB era, and like 3 back when I didn’t know how scenarios worked.

    I’ll give you all a hint:
    What popular sport is usually played in Wembley Stadium?

    I’d say Football or Soccer lol. That’s the obvious one, other than that, then I’m stumped. Completely lost and what is Footy Tap from TG08?.

    I really love the photo tho, you been doing some great shots recently. Each one vastly better than the last.
    For scenarios then I have a plan which I want to run past the Team. But if I was to offer you a position to be part of our team.
    Could you assist me and my Team members if you felt you could bring your talents with you.

    As I say just an idea, so just wanted to run past you if you was interested.
    If so I can see what I can do for you.

    Rigsby✌.

    The Class 87 has a tap changer, and the scenario would be about a football special :).

    Oh I get the connection now. The tap changer.

    In fact I have done quite a few miles in the 87 and don’t run into the red. But one day it completely lost power. The unit was still humming but no Amps. I had the changer set on low amps as I was going up a slight incline with a heavy freight load. And then it just cut out or knocked off. I heard the unit cut off like you do when ya knock the Tap Changer to off.

    Any idea what it could be?.

    Lee.
