Westcliff Works have done it again, and this time its the original 4 wheel coaches. technically they're actually no3..but I'll see past the slight difference in dimensions of coaches 1 and 2 so I can use this super high detail resin models.
Westcliff works don't currently have a working website - though I've heard that they're working on it - you can find them on Facebook as well at the NGRM-online forum.

those old coaches are as iconic as the locomotives who hauled them. Always loved the story around the time the railway was built. An inspector raised concerns about the clearance of the coaches under some of the bridges and being a risk to the passengers. So the railway shifted the line to one side, nailed the right hand doors shut and called the problem solved.

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

100% agree, and in a train with one of the original locos, it’s a beautiful sight. Yes, the railway was modified a few times, another bring when no6 Douglas arrived, and wouldn’t fit under the bridges, so the line was dug down to fit it through

@Madonsteamrailways 9 месяцев назад

Some gorgeous carriages!! It’s lovely to see some Talyllyn carriages. I hope you have the right locomotive to haul them!!

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

Thankyou! I’ve currently got 1,2,4,6 and 9 - 6 is complete, and the video will be a week on Friday, and the others are to come, so I will have plenty of relevant power to move them!

Try the Vallejo Metallic Colors. First apply glossy Black primer then the gold color. For aluminium I use the duralumin color. The only one I don't use is the chrome. I always prefer either the arcade or using adhesive chrome foil used mainly by car and aircraft modellers. It works a treat on a glossy surface. Hops this is helpful to you.

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

That’s brilliant, Thankyou I’ll give it a go

@modelrailfan37 9 месяцев назад

These look great! The red 4-wheeled Talyllyn coaches are classics! I was a little confused by your recent community post, haven’t you built No. 1, 2 and 7 already? You have them in your Tywyn Wharf layout videos.

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

Thanks! The Tywyn wharf layout was in 5.5mm, so a different scale completely, but you’re correct, I made 2 and 7 for it - and they run on the 5.5mm replacement layout, Pendre

I'm surprised you didn't do the same thing you did with the tattoo locomotive which was by the official Thomas models and then repaint them

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

The Bachman coaches didn’t seem to have the same level of detail, which is why I went with these. I will, however, be using the skarloey range of locos when the time comes..

The Thomas coaches aren't 009 and unfortunately you can see the difference

Amazing vid but i gotta ask what paint thinner ratio do you use for such good coats?

@GWilliamsonModels 5 месяцев назад

Funnily enough, this weeks video is focussing on using an airbrush, so look out for that, but basically I don’t use any particular ratio, I look at the viscosity of the mixture and go from there

Hey, George, could you maybe repaint Skarloey to add Talyllyn to the loco line up??

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

Hi! Yes Talyllyn will be made at some point, though I know of a manufacture currently working on talyllyn bodies to fit the skarloey chassis, so that one will wait for now. Next week sees the first loco build built though!

@@GWilliamsonModels ah ok 👍The bachmann coach 2 is rather accurate in terms of 1 & 2 if you're looking for alternatives

The issue with the Bachmann coaches is how thick the walls are, it’s really noticeable around the windows and puts me off!

@thefathat9490 9 месяцев назад

Even though it’s not Talyllyn, and more Ffestiniog, will you make Bug-box coaches for the layout?

@GWilliamsonModels 9 месяцев назад

No, this one is a prototypical TR layout, so only talyllyn stock on it. However, bug boxes will appear on the channel soon

Honestly not sure yet, but I’m heading towards Greenwich style, they take time to build up, but look much nicer than commercially available versions, and can’t still be used with magnets, which is what I’ll need for the next layout

Do you mean for the paintwork on the coaches? I just found that they were the closest colours to the Tr livery, nothing I found in acrylic was closer
