Welcome to Motley Junction
I get my ideas from books, photos, watching DVD’s and videos and watching the real railway.
A diesel body on a steam engine. I’ll put a Tri-ang Bo-Bo single cab on a Model Power steam chassis that will match the photo. Autumn 2015 project..
A photo taken from the Jan 15 Railway Magazine. What a great idea for a Motley loco!
This is a Spanish diesel at Alicante. It was the inspiration for the EWS red Bo-Bo on Motley Cyprus which is a shortened Tri-ang TC Switcher on a shortened Tri-ang TC Bo-Bo chassis.
I have lots of Tri-ang Class 31’s and so I will change one to look like this.
Churchill funeral train. Going to do a Tri-ang version with old Tri-ang Winston C, paint up a utility van in Pullman colours and run it with a set of Tri-ang short Pullmans.
Recently visited Cartagena in Spain. Went on a rail trip to Mar Mentor on the coast. The station at Cartagena, as you can see, is simple and could become a ‘Carta-Motley’ small layout 2'x4'
Two of these very modern single units ply backwards and forwards offering a half hour service.
Wow! Now there’s a challenge. Found this in August 2015 Railway Magazine.
