My First Route Candlewick

Postby stephenholmes on Fri Mar 20, 2009 12:23 pm

This is Candlewick Depot which consists of a Steam depot on the left and a Diesel depot on the right
I will post further screens as work is carried out on the route

Nice work, Stephen. Well done.

By the way, if you want a 294 thats more appropriate for a British route someone over at the RS Trainsim forum has reskinned it in two BR variants: one in green and one in blue complete with headcode. They now look a bit like Claytons!

Best wishes,
Padster

Thats an encouraging start Steven and looks like it will have something for everyone. I'll enjoy seeing it evolve.

Thanks Nick for your comments
Tungsten Quarry will be well worth the wait
It is situated to the right of the diesel depot at Candlewick
I want to try and ensure that there is plenty of scope for scenarios
Having some form of industry at either end of the layout justifies the route.
Thanks once again for all the kind comments
Kind regards Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Looks like its coming along nicely, love the shot of Filament Yard. Plus from your description, the industrial bits of the route sound very interesting!
Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Good luck with it and as has been said - have fun!

Kind Regards
Ant :D

Did a light bulb appear above your head when you 'invented' those station names? :wink:
