Sorry I nearly missed this. Yes I understand that and fully agree with you. I just find that because it’s visually all concept oriented then I try give them a feel of being there. If I was a train spotter down at the station or being on a bridge. As a role play theme then I take photos of work new out of the paint shop. Anything dirty or used i will usually do what you say. But again I try not add to much saturation or colour as it’s unnatural to the eye and the look I’m going for. Reality. These for a quick example. New out on the yard and then in service. Again it’s conceptual work so try creating a vision of what certain liveries could possibly look like. SR,,Who’s that? And hey it’s never a problem mate. Good work should always be given some respect even praise. I know myself how long it’s take, so for you and all members to give so much to the community yet don’t get a simple thanks is why I’m here. I said to own of my team mates that all the work we see here or on CC has a human behind them. All I am doing is enjoying what you provide and dropping you a little support. Even encouragement if you see it as that. For as humans we all need a little support and encouragement at times. Or why be here I like the work you do and so I thank you for sharing your work because as I say it’s takes a lot of time and commitment to produce quality content. Rigbsy. ✌
I work at my local depot which is Blackburn King street LMD (light maintenance depot). We are an outstation to newton heath meaning the trains we get are often stored at newton heath for major maintenance. If it’s light maintenance, then they come to Blackburn for a quick cleanup! the trains we get currently are: Class 150/1, class 156, 150/2, class 195.
That last shot is really nice in the bushes! Yeah exactly, we all have our little flaws every now and then and like you said, we all need some encouragement at times. I definitely need some for my last shift tonight
This is my depot down below, thought I’d share some pictures. Built in 2017 for support with the WCML electrification upgrade!
Hey thanks for shearing. Looks very open tho the elements. Must be so cool tho being that close to Trains. I have a few photos taken for work purposes as I worked close to A350 wings etc. We looked after wing jigs and transporters. The Transporter you see was made by the company I worked for hence why I was there with a few other lads checking the wing pin jig assembly. I can’t show all the pictures as they where some major problems in R&D to Manufacture. Meaning the wing you see was not properly fixed in place before defects took hold. A very very dangerous situation and place to be. So yes to be around any kinda of transportation is pretty cool to me. Yet to work around trains would be cool, and I thank you for sharing these with me. By the way could I possibly introduce you to a community member who wishes to follow his dreams like you. If so just DM me and I’ll send you his contact information for on here. Similar age and a sound lad so you will be okay like. Cheers again, oh,,,,, And something else an outside helper for R200 needs some 150s etc so if you head over the Rail 200 Prep thread you will see a member called Rudy. He’s the one looking for 150s for his videos. Good luck and catch you soon. Rigsby. ✌
Very close to those wings, they are massive, wow! Yeah as for the lad, I can speak to him. I don’t know how to message on here as I don’t use the forums a lot to know enough. also regarding your last comment about rudy, I’ll make sure to join that thread, been busy again me! catch you soon buddy!
Yep defo have a head ache if that gave way or suddenly tilted. I’m sorry I’ve been late responding to had a lot happen so been distracted of late. And thanks for contacting me I will read up soon and pass you on to Jplayz. I have mentioned that you DM so is all excited to hear from you. I will short it all out tomorrow And for Rudy well me and him are no longer dealing with each other. So unfortunately I can’t get involved with that I’m afraid to say. So yes I will catch you soon to bud Rigbsy. ✌
