The SDV #tt120 #spurtt #ceskedrahy vans are not painted and have had transfers applied. They're less chocolate brown and more reddish in person. #modeltrains #modellbahn

SDV models are everything a wagon kit should be. Wheels, couplings, transfers, even a few steel nuts for weights included. #tt120 #spurtt #modeltrains #modellbahn

New model Monday. A #hornby #tt120 #britishrail class 37. It's currently having the sound profile uploaded to its #dcc decoder. The detail level wouldn't be considered poor on a bigger OO #modeltrain

I was really pleased to catch an ex- #DB 614 in action at Dulowa on Wednesday. I suspect that the Cargounit loco on a #PKP #Intercity was a rare sighting too. #trains #railways

A rare moment as all of my first generation #Roco #tt120 #spurtt V100s are working. Roco redesigned the chassis after I'd bought all these #modeltrains #modellbahn

Another #DCC stay alive added, this time to a #Roco #tt120 #spurtt V100. Needed in these owing to poor pickup reliability, Roco have redesigned the internals since I bought my ones. #modelrailway #modellbahn

#DCC stay alive in a #Piko #tt120 #spurtt V60. The capacitors fit perfectly in the speaker space. Decoder and stay alive from Train-o-matic. #modelrailway #modellbahn

It's a bit bloody small on the screen, but I've managed to get Railcom ID reporting set up on the fiddle yard before Calne #modelrailway exhibition. #dcc

The lawn of the flats has come out a bit bright, but it'll have to do for now. Calne #modelrailway exhibition in two weeks, I have other fish to fry. #tt120 #spurtt #modellbahn

Just the ticket for my loading siding. #tt120 #spurtt Weimar T174 grab loader by Busch. A nice new toy for my #modelrailway #modellbahn

Plugging away at one of the corner boards. I've added hoses for the oil siding, and ignored all zoning considerations by filling a space with a block of flats. Making the ground outside the hedges scrubbier is the next stage. #modelrailway #modellbahn #spurtt #tt120

I've assembled and mounted this console from Grainge & Hodder to act as my #modelrailway control panel. I'll have to adapt it a bit so there's room for a coffee cup. #modellbahn #tt120 #spurtt #dcc

maps.app.goo.gl/C1xTwLjdd3Rq... Nordhalben may be the perfect BLT. 2m in TT, 2.75m in H0, 1.5m in N, and all the buildings available as kits from MBZ. The only reason I haven't modelled it is that it's not ex-DDR.
