I am covering two periods of time, for Farkham it is set in late 80's as is Kyle of Inchinnan, but my Cornish layout Parkadiikin is base round 1987.
Parkadikin
For this layout I have modelled Locos base on the fleet used for china clay movement, using mainly ready to run models but that have been repainted and highly detailed.
Hornby class 50 149 Defiance triple grey
This model was repainted and detailed using Shawplan etched parts and was lightly weathered. The real loco was a failed conversion that BR tried, utilise class 50's for
freight working.
Hornby class 50 018 Resolution Network SouthEast
Again as above this model was repainted etched grilles added, detailed and weathered.
This loco was seen on china clay working during 87.
Hornby 08 886 BR Blue
this is one of my older models and is based on one which I had featured in a issue on the Railway Modeller demonstrating fading blue paintwork.
There are more in the loco fleet for Parkadikin but these have yet to be finished
I have wide fleet od clay wagons with some rare scratch built models showcased in the bellow picture.
