Added a yard light tower to the Delhi yard and also connected Delhi West Signal Box., picture below sows part of the Delhi Station, light tower and signal box.
Both the Delhi and Bombay Sheds have been lit up. New pictures below.
A better picture of the Bombay Station with interior lights. This after Dr. Ibrahim complained.
Just connected lights to the Delhi Station. It looks great.
I just posted a video of mu UK model of the Class 70 Freightliner locomotive. It has a very unique extended start-up sequence, very realistic. Enjoy
I am in the process of adding lights to the layout. Most yards have lights which enable work to proceed during nights. The yard Towers I am installing are from UK and I have seen similar on Indian Railways. Here is a picture of one I will post a picture of one on my layout as soon as I can install them.
In India Roundhouses (US Term) are called Sheds and were spread all across the country. They still exist. Here is a picture of a Southern Railway one with steam locos.
I sometimes acquire a locomotive which is not close to Indian Railways, but it just catches my fancy. One such is the UK Freightliner Class 70. This one is very new and is currently deployed in the UK. This model is from Bachman UK and I had sound and DCC added. The loco is on my test track.
In the 1950/60s a number of ALCO design Locos were built in the Soviet union and imported to India to work at the steel plants in India. I have a video of one such locomotive. This particular one is a Czechoslovakia built, supplied to Poland. I intend to modify it to IR colors. A video of it is on the Videos Page
I have been adding LED lights to some building on the layout. here are some pictures of structures which have had lights added.
