Pinzadave's Livery & Scenario Creation Thread

One of the strange 'cures' for too much beer was raw eggs! So its good that the railways provided a service to transport eggs by the vanload. Here are 2 wagons that were used for this transportation:

Express Dairy Company: English Eggs

 

LMS Egg Van

 

Grateful thanks to Spikeyorks for his amazing Tees Valley mods.
Here is another (poor quality - I must get that sorted) video of a new scenario entitled: 'No lack at Lackenby - Part 1'

 

Thanks for the thumbs up Dave.
Actually you're going to shame me if you end up releasing a scenario before I do. (After all I did have a huge head start over you).
I have 10 scenarios ready that just need tidying up and livery lists produced for. Somehow I think the latter is going to be the bit that gives me the biggest headache !!!

 

Banana Vans next. The railways supplied specific vans for the transit of bananas; along with Private Owner vans such as 'Fyffes'

 

GWR Banana Van

 

The Big 4 also ran Ventilated and Refrigerated Vans. Refrigerated Vans had special areas for ice to be carried during transit - some even having facilities for Dry Ice!

LMS Refrigerator Van





GWR Ventilated Van

 

A diversion into more modern wagons - ICI Anhydrous Ammonia Tankers. This toxic, and dangerous liquid was transported in these distinctively liveried wagons. 4 variants with 4 levels of dirt.
STS 78658

 

STS 78661

 

STS 78663

 

STS 78678

 

And a slightly older tanker, but still for Ammonia from ICI

 

Next to come will be a little excursion away from wagons and back to my favourites - locomotives. The theme is Scotland and there will be examples of 1980s versions of Scottish Class 08s, 20s, 37s and 47s. The overriding connection will be the inclusion of the 4 main Scottish Depot emblems, some of which I have already produced for earlier locos. So there will be Eastfield Westies; Haymarket Castles; Inverness Stags and Motherwell Salmon.
I've yet to attempt the Westie (Scotty Dog), so they may be a while.
Up first, and going online tonight are a few examples of Haymarket (HA), Edinburgh's shunters...

 

The first 3 shunters loaded up were all based at Haymarket, 08720 and 08730 in two guises.

08720 in Provincial livery

 

08730 in BR Blue with red stripes

 

08730 was later given a Black livery

 

Haymarket were quite prolific in emblazoning their Castle on their shunters:

08571

 

08732

 

08793 in LNER Green. I don't recall ever knowing about this repaint, but there are photos out there.

 

08763

 

08764

 

And finally, 08881

 

Haymarket also added the Castle emblem to some of their ScotRail liveried Class 47s.
47713 received the emblem before it was even named!

 

47703 'Saint Mungo'

 

47715 'Haymarket'

 

47704 'Dunedin'

 

47711 'Greyfriars Bobby'
