After a favourable result to numerous tests, VIA Rail stainless steel consists no longer require a buffer car at each end, as had been the case since the end of last year. Here VIA 69 has five of these cars, all carrying passengers.

Some 20 years ago I bought a cheap (£20 GBP / 32 USD) OO gauge 'Peak' Class 45 diesel made by Mainline
D49 was named 'The Manchester Regiment' and featured an old Ringfield motor based on Analogue 12v power
As I'm gradually migrating to Digital Control I decided to do a trial conversion by adding a DCC Encoder
Not as easy as it sounds as with this old Loco there is no way of just plugging in the new 'chip' as not being 'DCC ready' you have to do some alterations to the original wiring along with some soldering
Studying various Youtube tutorials I took the plunge and I'm happy to say having wired in an 8 pin decoder, it worked first time
However, the loco itself is very basic so I've replaced the buffer beams with plasticard and 3D printed buffers, 3D printed hook and chain link dummy couplings then added various home-made hoses using wire and paper clips
Following these basic upgrades I replaced the various windows with 'Flush Glaze' ones cut to size and glued in using 'Glue n Glaze' liquid and then added scratch-built wind-screen wipers
Finally the 'Yellow ends' and Buffer Beams were repainted plus a good overall 'weathering' was done using brush and cotton bud applications of acrylic and enamel washes
These locos have 8 wheeled bogies so a quick tweak of the wheel 'back to backs' to correct the gauge makes it now a reasonable runner at number 16 in my growing digital fleet

Buffer stop at the Cambrian Railway, Oswestry situated at the end of the head shunt for the sidings south of the station.
I spotted the squirrel looking like he was about to run up the buffers which fortunately he did resulting in the photograph here, Sunday 4.10.26

Fence Friday
This not only keeps the animals off the road, but it also buffers the sound of the traffic.

The Sheringham end of the North Norfolk Railway, a privately operated heritage line which operates both steam and diesel-hauled services. It is one of the longest established heritage lines, having been founded in 1965 about a year after the line was closed by British Railways. It once formed part of the Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway and runs 5 miles to Holt.
Behind me, rails continue through a level crossing to the modern Sheringham station a short distance away, from which trains can be caught to Norwich on the national rail network. The buffer can be removed to allow occasional through trains, e.g. special steam services from Norwich.
Identifiable by its missing number above the front buffer on the front end Colas Rail Class 70802 approaches Hagg Hill, Tupton working 6E29 Longport Colas to Dewsbury Colas.
A stretch of untouched tropical turf that acted like a ceasefire buffer zone.
This indoor tropical resort used to be squatted. In the wee hours of a cold 2013 morning we took our chances to find a way in and bumped into another group of people who called themselves “anti-squatters”. It was the day they moved in - officially - to claim the building. The squatters themselves, still sleeping, were not aware of this coup.
Squatters. And anti-squatters. Best of both worlds co-existing at the same time, while we were snapping shots between enemy lines. Party time!
On 11/02/19 5Z50 0945 Etches Park-Neville Hill passes Draycott with 4 buffer fitted Angel Trains power cars 43423 43467 43484 43468. The train terminated at Trent loop due to a fleet issue and returned to Etches Park for attention, before making a second successful attempt to get to NL, leaving Derby around lunchtime.
This started out as a low angle shot of openings in a closet door vent. I experimented with color and texture and ended up with this abstract.

What looks to be buffer fitted 43013 is seen heading a Virgin Cross Country service past Newport ADJ Yard as the evening shadows lengthen. Yard shunters 09203 and 09105 can just be seen taking a break from their duties. The yard looked full on this day, taken circa 1998.
