Please note - Testing has revealed some issues with the reskin pack that need to be resolved. The download will remain up, but will probably be replaced tomorrow.

Hi Sem. I thought you were going to use GWR Toplights not LMS P1's. These are very old models and do not look very good in my opinion.

Unfortunately, the person doing the reskins for me doesn't have the toplights. I will, however, look at doing those myself. When patched up these ones should offer a similar approximation to that offered by Bachmann with their model.

FYI
The latest edition of the Steam Railway Magazine (https://www.steamrailway.co.uk/steamnew ... n-sale-now) is featuring the ROD and other useful information

Thank you - I didn't know that so will have to look!

Hi everyone. Sem34090 sent me the link to this site. I made my first re-skin test of a Mogul to a black ROD today. This is a really exciting project.

Evening SAH!

Glad to see you over here!

An update on the project: http://sem34090.simplesite.com/441152081

Update - Monday 28th January 2019
With only six months left until our self-imposed release date, to coincide with the centenary of the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, it has been decided to put the prototypical Hazebrouck-based project on the back-burner for now as it requires a great deal more research than we anticipated.



Instead, attentions have turned to creating a fictional route representing the operations of the ROD and potentially also the WDLR. This route will use the Armstrong Powerhouse 'Wherry Llnes' route to provide basic geography and intial track layout, but it will be re-worked to represent ROD-Operated lines in Northern France and Belgium. Whether this route is to be publicly released will depend on permission being granted by Armstrong Powerhouse. Needless to say it will still require the payware edition of the Wherry Lines route in order to run.

Hey guys,
I've got a note on the belgian stock... The belgian state railway (Etat Belge/Belgische Staat) owned engines VERRY similar to the caley dunalastair class. The fist batch was even build in scotland

Indeed they did - They also owned locos to a vaguely similar outline as the CR 812 Class so it is intended to have the latter reskinned into Belgian and ROD livery (Some of the Belgian 812-mimics were used by the ROD) and the Dunalastair into Belgian livery.

I'm not sure if I've made a list, but it is currently planned to make use of the following locos:

GER Y14 (ROD Livery Supplied)
GWR 4300 (ROD Livery Supplied - Authentic Black Reskin available)
LBSCR E4 (ROD Livery Supplied)
CR 'Jumbo' (ROD Livery Supplied)

ROD 2-8-0 (ROD Reskin being worked on/available)
NER T2 (To represent NER T - ROD Reskin to be made)
NER 1001 (To represent French and Belgian 0-6-0's - ROD Reskin being worked on, Belgian and French reskins to follow)
CR 812 (To represent Belgian 812 Mimic - ROD and Belgian reskins to be made)
CR Dunalastair (To represent Belgian mimic - Belgian reskin to be made)
Dutch Baltic Tank (ROD Reskin to be made)
LNWR G2 (ROD Reskin to be made)

In addition further coach and wagon reskins are to be made.

If I've forgotten anything then please tell me!

If neededed, I might get my hands on some drawings of classic belgian 6 weeled "GCI" coaches. As I've worked on and with these coaches during my time on the luxemburgish heritage railway...

If you could then that would be fantastic!

Currently we're looking at reskinning Richard Scott's 6-Wheelers and the SDJR 6-Wheeler in the SSS WSR Wagon Pack.

Hey Sem,
Check your pm.

Gaëtan

I have! That's a very kind offer!

I'm happy to help!
