bROADOAK Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 A view looking down the yard taken from the top of the engine house. Showing the Fordson 27N powered shunter. The yard foreman's hut is based on the ones we had at work Rockingham Raceway, which have now been updated. Peter M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bROADOAK Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 A couple of shots taken at the Small Layout Show at Werrington of the freelance shunter working in the yard. Peter M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bROADOAK Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 A few pictures taken by my fellow operator Andy K on his mobile phone at the Northampton and District Narrow Gauge Open Day. A most enjoyable show I must admit, with a friendly knowledgeable gathering of fellow enthusiasts. The Opel rail truck is seen backing past the greenhouse. Engines for repair and sacks of wheat. Figure in the duffle coat admiring the tomatoes. Sacks of wheat and potatoes this time. Peter M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bROADOAK Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I have been kindly given permission to post a few photographs taken by Mick Thornton, a specialist narrow gauge photographer, at an exhibition last year. The viewing section of the layout showing its small size. A pair of shunters waiting to start work in the morning. Oil drums and engines.

bROADOAK Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 A general view of the tractor workshop. The wooden shunter rolls into the yard. The scratch built Simplex brings in more engines for attention. That brings things right up to date. Peter M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bROADOAK Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 I am pleased to say Two Sisters featured in the July issue of Model Rail magazine. I have kindly been given permission to share some of the superb photographs taken by Chris Nevard. The photographs were all taken last year.

bROADOAK Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 That is it I'm afraid. Can I thank again Chris Nevard for taking the photos and Model Rail for letting me share them. Peter M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb86 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Great photos again peter. Have you ever thought about building a second section to the display with a field scene? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bROADOAK Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Hi Martin, Yes I have thought about an extension but not done anything about it. The problem is the layout just fits in the car with the rolling stock I use at exhibitions. I just wouldn't have room in the car. I'm quite happy making more forms of motive power and wagons for them to pull. You mention the photographs these were taken by Chris Nevard and I think he is the best model railway photographer around today. He is also an accomplished modeller himself. Google Chris Nevard and you will see what I mean. Thanks for your kind words Martin. Kind regards Peter M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
