Members Layouts / Barry West Pond - 00 Gauge (fixed)
« Last post by Martin on September 11, 2023, 19:31:34 PM »
BARRY WEST POND (Alwyn Annels)

This 00 gauge layout was commenced in 2009 when Alwyn was living in Cardiff and was a member of the Cardiff Model Engineering Society (CMES). It is based on the railway network in the vicinity of Barry in South Wales and reflects the infrastructure and rolling stock present over the period 1985 to 1996. The name is based on the lagoon artificially created from an intertidal inlet from the Bristol Channel when the Barry docks and the causeway to Barry Island were built in 1889 and 1896 respectively. This lagoon was, however, infilled with domestic and commercial waste by the mid 1950s and thus allowed the creation of the World famous Barry or Woodhams Scrapyard. Here over 300 steam locomotives were stored of which 213 were taken away for preservation at various times until its final closure in 1989.

The layout measures 19’6” by 11’ and the track-work includes the up and down lines to Cardiff via the main station, a rail connection to Woodhams, a series of sidings associated with the main loco shed, a preservation railway line to the old Hood Road goods shed (now part of the Barry Island Tourist railway) and the railway connecting the main line to Barry Island across the causeway. These latter lines lead to a six track fiddle yard along the entire length of the layout. Most of the buildings are scratch built from Plastikard and include the old Barry Docks pump house and power station, a well known feature of the area.

The Digitrax Super Chief Extra system provides DCC control of locomotive movements and mainline point motors (Traintronics – TT300) using hands-free throttles (Duplex Radio Transeiver). All other point motors are a combination of Peco solenoids and DC powered point motors produced by a member of CMES. All points are Peco Electrofrog points. Two control panels control point setting and LED lights indicate routes open.

Locomotives are dominated by variants of Class 37 diesels, two with sound, which provide the motive power for ‘merry-go-round’ coal trains. However, the presence of the preservation railway does allow a range of steam engines to visit including City of Sheffield and City of Truro, the former with sound.

Modelling Tips & Guides / Speeeeeed !!
« Last post by Martin on September 11, 2023, 19:26:12 PM »
Want to know what speed in miles per hour your trains are travelling?

Note: This gives you an approximate speed only and some numbers have been rounded up/down for ease.

Here is a formula;

1. Mark out a length of track (at least 1yd/3ft (914mm)), multiply by the number of seconds in an hour (3600), the multiply again by the scale of the train (example for 00 this would be 76 (from 1:76)).
2. Now calculate the time the train takes to travel the length of track marked (most mobile phone have a stopwatch) and multiply it by the number of millimeters in a mile (1609000).

Take your result from 2 above and divide it into the result from 1 above (you might get a long answer, but the first two digits before the point will give you the speed in mph).

So the formula is = DISTANCE x 3600 x SCALE / TIME x 1609000

DISTANCE - is space between two points e.g. 1yd (36in - 914mm)

3600 - is the number of seconds in an hour

SCALE - is the scale of the train you are measuring
    0   = 1:43.5
    00 = 1:76
    H0 = 1:87
    TT = 1:120
    N  = 1:148

TIME - is the time take in seconds for the train to cover the distance between the two points

1609000 - is the number of millimeters in a mile

As mentioned this is not an accurate calculation just an approximation.
Hope you find this of use/interest.

Club 'Show' / Club Show
« Last post by Martin on September 11, 2023, 18:41:49 PM »
Following the success of our first 'show' in 2022 and our second in 2023, it is hoped that we can continue to organise a show each year.

The 'shows' feature layouts, either built by the Club or built and owned by members of the Club (a trader is normally in attendance as well).

There is no charge for entry, we hope that visitors will enjoy our efforts and make a donation (or buy something from the Clubs 'sales table'), which helps cover the costs involved with the show as well as give much needed funds to support the Clubs activities.

We consider ourselves as 'average' modeler's, we enjoy the hobby and encourage and help others to enjoy model railways as we do.

We hope the 'laid back' attitude and enthusiasm by members is evident to visitors at our show. Hopefully visiting our show will encourage them start building a layout, or if they don't have the ability to undertake that at home, to join a Club, if not us, then one near to them.

Details of the next Club Show will appear on the main website and on our facebook page.

PROJECTS UPDATE
There is plenty going on for members who want to get involved.
We were given a number of N gauge layouts that are currently being brought back into an operational condition.
Markwood is currently being rewired for DCC and Dawn-Lee, which has been re-wired for DCC, both still needs point motors and controls doing along with the the Dawn-Lee layout being split into three sections to ease in transportation (speak to Peter).
Brunel Quay in N gauge is soon to commence track laying but there is still plenty to do (speak to Alwyn).
Alcester in OO gauge, also is currently under construction with track laid and ballasting underway.
The O gauge branch layout in the clubroom has had all the track at the far end relayed, wired and tested, work has started on rewiring the other end. Scenery is next on the list for the far end.

More to follow...
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
RUNNING DAYS
Where possible, we will try to combine ‘Sausage Saturdays’ with ‘Running Days’.
On Cutlers Junction this will alternate between DC and DCC operation.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
FUTURE PROJECTS
Future projects that we are looking at doing include a portable 00 branch layout and as we are having more N gauge modellers join the Club, a N gauge roundy roundy in the Clubroom for members to test their rolling stock on running days.
If you have any suggestions please speak to one of the Committee or send an email so that it can be considered.

Mike (A) is heading up a ‘beginners’ layout, on the board as you walk into the Clubroom, if you want to help speak to Mike, the more the merrier.
There is also a small ‘window ledge’ sized layout available for members to have a go at. Nothing spectacular, small branch terminus based on Dyserth (N.Wales). A couple of members have expressed an interest in working on it, so hopefully that will get going soon.
For anyone who is interested in scenery, there is a Church ‘diorama’. Anyone interested can pretty much do what they want on the board provided with the Church. It is at the far end of the Clubroom if you want to take a look first.

Hello and welcome to yet another Club Newsletter. My apologies for the delay.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
CLUB NOW OPEN
The Club is now fully open to members. You should all now be getting an email each Sunday, so that members can use it to reply (to all), notifying others if they intend to attend the Club on any particular day that week. It is used to monitor the numbers attending the Club on any given day. At present, due to space being made for the BBC filming, there is ample space for members, but this may not always be the case.
The Committee would like to thank all of our members for their continued support, especially over the last eighteen months or so.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
BBC
As you are all probably aware, the BBC have used the Clubroom and its layouts, in the filming of an episode of Shakespeare & Hathaway. It was a long day, but watching how they put ‘scenes’ together was very interesting. The Class 25 (Tony) and the Pullman coaches (Glyn) ran for the most part without any problems, just a couple derailments taking place. If we get a date for its screening l will let you know, but it is likely to be March 2022 (unless it ends up on the editing room floor)!
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
SAUSAGE SATURDAYS
Yes, they are back! One was held back at the start of September. Where we had some lovely autumn weather.
It meant part of it could be held outside, with Tony’s G Gauge trains providing the entertainment.
Following the BBC’s filming on Friday the 5th November another ‘Sausage Saturday’ was held within the Clubroom, The space created by the BBC filming meant that there was plenty of room for members and visitors to mingle.
Again, the excellent food was cooked by our ‘Sausage Saturday’ expert Peter, many thanks to him, for his time in preparing the food for the day.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
Coming Soon, at the Club...
ANYRAIL
On December the 4th 10am -11am myself and Peter will be holding a demonstration of using the ANYRAIL track planning software, you will be able to see it in action, ask any questions and even have a go with it.
SAUSAGE SATURDAY
Also on the 4th December, following the Anyrail demonstration, we will have our final ‘Sausage Saturday’ of 2021.
AMERICAN AFTERNOON TEA
Due to continued concerns over the infection rates, it has been decided not to have a Christmas Lunch this year. Instead we will have an ‘American Afternoon Tea’ on the 11th December (details will be emailed to members).
We will continue to monitor the situation with the hopes of having a lunch somewhere in the Spring of 2022.
QUESTION FOR MEMBERS?
What would you like to have a go at, or gain more information on, at the Club?
The main reasons for joining a Club are the ‘socialising’ (having a chat and cuppa) and ‘activities’ (getting involved in layouts or projects). The first is easy, just turn up and put the kettle on! The second requires members input, what would you like to do, see or understand more off.
We have had requests about track planning, so as already mentioned, a demonstration of Anyrail is now arranged.
Some members have asked about learning how to do ‘scenery’. We have in the past done a demonstration on Flocking, which we can do again. One of the best ways is ‘to have a go’, so the Committee are looking to come up with projects for members to learn on.
If you have any suggestions or there are any topics that you would like to know more about please let one of the Committee know.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
RECENT EVENTS
(for images, see next page)
Mike took Bodmin Road to the Cradley Heath show on the 9th October.
Saturday 16th October saw Peter take the ‘childrens layout’ the St Andrews 150th Anniversary Fete.
Tony arranged a day out at the GWSR on the 28th October
 + + + + + + + + + + + + +
That’s all for now!

Up The Junction / S&DMRC Newsletter (16)
« Last post by Martin on September 11, 2023, 17:56:02 PM »
Hello Everyone.
I was planning to do the next Newsletter in a month or so but with the changes in restrictions with regards to Covid-19, l thought now would be a good time.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
WE ARE OPEN...  (sort off)
As you are aware from the 19th July we are now able to ‘open’ the Clubroom.
According to the guidelines on gov.uk;
You do not need to stay 2 metres apart from people you do not live with. There are also no limits on the number of people you can meet.
However,
In order to minimise risk at a time of high prevalence, you should limit the close contact you have with those you do not usually live with, and increase close contact gradually. This includes minimising the number, proximity and duration of social contacts.
So due to the limitations on space at the Club, we would suggest that the maximum number of members in the clubroom at the moment should be 6 or 8 at a push.
Still please ensure that the front door and windows are kept open whilst members are in attendance. If you feel that you wish to continue wearing a face mask that is fine and if you feel you can only attend if other members do the same then this can also be accommodated by mutual arrangement.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
OPEN DAY
The idea of an 'open day' has been discussed over the lockdown but at present, this will have to wait until either late August or September.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
EXTRA SPACE
Discussions with the landlords led to the offer of some storage space in another building. The space will be used for the storage of layouts (it being on the ground floor makes it easier for the transportation of baseboards etc.) and surplus materials. This will free up space within the Clubroom for members.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
EGM
Due to the lockdowns, there was no AGM in 2020 and the AGM for this year was done online. As meeting ‘face to face’ is far better the date of
Saturday 23rd October 2021 has been suggested as a date for an EGM. If the meeting will starts promptly at 10am and will finish no later than 11.30am, it may us time to enjoy sausage rolls, a drink and run a few trains!
Should the Agenda suggest insufficient time then we may have to do without the sausages!
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
CLEANING/SAFETY
Just because restrictions have been lifted it does not mean that we should not continue with cleanliness, hand sanitiser etc., will continue to be provided.
Also another reminder that only the ‘eco’ friendly products supplied should be used due to the new waste system at the farm, do not bring in any of your own products without checking with the Committee first.
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
EXHIBITIONS & SHOWS
We have been asked if we can supply a layout for the Cradley Heath Model Railway Show on 9th October 2021.
Mike has offered to take Bodmin Road, if you can assist in any way (preparing the layout or on the day) please speak to Mike.
Shottery Church has also asked if we have something to take along for their 150th Anniversary Fete on the 16th October 2021.
Peter is taking a small table top layout. Again if you can assist in any way please speak to Peter
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
And finally...
Nobody has mentioned it, so l presume that none of you have noticed that the Clubs website was rebuilt during the lockdown and went ‘live’ on the 25th May. It loads quicker and is more streamlined than the old version, is linked to our Facebook page, that Peter and myself update frequently (how many of you have looked at that?). There is also a link to the ‘members’ section on the website (and how many of you have been there since the online AGM?).
+ + + + + + + + + + + + +
That’s all for now. Take care, keep safe and hopefully l will see you all at some point at the Club.

Members Layouts / Reliance Works - O Gauge (portable)
« Last post by Martin on December 05, 2022, 09:17:24 AM »
The original idea for Reliance Works was to see if l could use the Scalescenes 00 Gauge Industrial Box File Layout and up-scale them to O gauge. Was it possible, how would the buildings look?

Well, the answer was, yes, it can be done, although there was a lot of printing involved !

Printing out the outline on to numerous sheets of A4 showed that in O gauge the layout would be approximately 27" x 17", but l decided to give myself a bit more room and went for 36" x 18"
