We're gearing up for DEMU Showcase next week at Sutton Coldfield Town Hall. Come along an enjoy the layouts, sample the trade and support the society!
Apologies for those members trying to log into the forum this morning. We appear to have an issue but it is being investigated.
Now here's something you don't see modelled often, suburban Glasgow in the 1980s! Come along to DEMU Showcase at Sutton Coldfield in July to see the superbly modelled Wellpark presented by the Scottish Diesel and Electric Group. More Details: demu.org.uk/showcase
DEMU (Diesel and Electric Modellers United) is the UK's only society dedicated to modelling the Diesel and Electric era. Come along to our annual show in July to see Euxton Junction - the West Coast Mainline in miniature!
Another taster of one the fab layouts that will be appearing at Showcase 2022. Burnroyd Works OO Gauge by Chris Burnage and his take of a contemporary steelworks location. Another mouth watering layout to keep visitors glued to the action.
Put the July 23/24th in your diary to come along and see Splott at DEMU Showcase. From Paul Spencer, one of the builders of legendary layout Farkham, the layout is a little slice of South Wales 1980s steel operations.
We are gearing up for this years show in July! Come along to Sutton Coldfield and see the final outing of John Norton and George Woodcock's masterpiece "Towcester" before it retires from the circuit. Set in the halcyon days of 1977 in BR 'banger blue'.
Keith Sully's new layout Bristol Avon Bridge is instantly recognisable as a miniature reproduction of Bristol Temple Meads. Keith has brilliantly captured the atmosphere of the prototype location in the late 1970s #TMRGUK #modelrailway
Today’s trackwork image - concrete sleepers. These were individually laid using C&L plastic sleepers and Peco pandrol clips. The sleepers have been painted using Plastikote suede, and the rails have been painted using railmatch frame dirt #emgauge #track @DemuShowcase
Mick Bryan’s graffiti on his @accurascale PCAs is applied freehand, copied from that applied to the prototype, using acrylics. Weathering powder from the DCCconcepts range is used to add texture, topped off with a touch more airbrushing and a thin coat of matt lacquer to seal
The ex ironstones on the BIS sand traffic from Oakamoor to St Helens are some of Dave Millward’s earliest railway memories. Every hopper was different. Inflicting this neglect and decay on his rolling stock as seen in the photo was Dave’s modelling goal, using various techniques
47971 'Robin Hood' by Ed Fahey. Originally Bachmann 47444, the ETH sockets have been moved, Telephone sockets on the cab ends added, as well as the multiple working socket 3D printed by Glenderg models #TMRGUK
Alan Monk’s WIP H0 wagons, front to back; Bobol E, Bobol C, Grampus, Plate, Salmon. Bobols and Salmon scratchbuilt Evergreen section, strip & sheet, Grampus and Plate scratch bodies on modified Jouef/Playcraft rtr chassis. What’s been on your workbench this weekend? #tmrguk
The base model for Nick Lee’s SJA conversion was an EWS liveried Bachmann MEA. The body work conversion was undertaken using the excellent Stenson Models SJA conversion parts. The model was finished with an all over coat of MRP super clear matt lacquer varnish #tmrguk
I've put the layout up on its legs for the first time in ages and thought I'd have a look at a few recent projects on the layout. Some pallets added to the depot too and I've done a spot of wiring this lot in. Enjoy your Friday evening #TMRGUK
I've been experimenting with platform edging as a break from track weathering and just temporarily placed it on the board to see how it looks. Maybe a touch high? And I'm not sure of the angle of the ramps so something to research! #TMRGUK
Progress today on the tractors - mainly opening up the moulded parts of the Bachmann fuel tanks. I’ve used plasticard strips and filler to open up the moulded cut outs - one more round of sanding and priming required me thinks #TMRGUK @DemuShowcase
