Just something new!
I loved this photo of a cicada that I took so I wanted to play around with it. I decided to add the buffering logo because sometimes you can't wait around for things to inspire you.
You have to sit back and let life buffer a little bit before taking a step forward. It's okay to just relax and take your time.
Class 40s, including 40 115/088 (against the buffers) 40 023/065 (centre background) and a pair of 20s (20 017 nearest) plus a Class 31 in the form of ADB968016, await their fate in the yard outside the cutting shop at Crewe Works. Over the fence withdrawn 84 004/005, 82 002 and 83 006 lie dumped outside Crewe Electric depot.
End line buffers. In Sweden these are typically yellow steel beam structures. I figured yellow Lego technic beams would be the nearest equivalent, and put together two concepts this morning. Both designs are simple, yet strong due to the use of technic parts.
I wasnt really happy with the last method, so this is my revised method which I'm far happier with.
Pic shows original buffer on top right of shot, and new version in foreground.
The lower left of shot shows the parts used in construction. Obviously solid 3mm bars dont need to be used, but they were closest to hand for the picture.
Using 3mm flex tube would allow this to be used in pretty much any model if the coupling distance between stock allows it.
It's an interesting view to watch a train come up to the buffers infront of you (ableit slowly) on a head-on shot.
LNWR's EMU unit 350253 slowly arrives on platform 7 at Crewe station with the terminating 1U31 service from Euston. With a 19 minute turnaround, the train then forms the 1U32 service back to Big Smoke.

Carnarvon Bay, Tasmania.
This is not far from Port Arthur, on the Tasman Peninsula.
(Have you ever noticed how the most "interesting" photos on Flickr Explore always have cryptic artsy titles all in lower case?)

This a Lanarkshire Models buffer stop which I’ve widened with a coffee stirred to create a reasonable impression of a Belgian buffer stop.
I almost forgot about these two buffers, from about 4 months ago. The one to the left is supposed to be somewhat faded - note the duller colours towards the right. Not sure the idea works too well, it's just an experiment. The buffer on the right is closer in design (I hope) to many buffers seen here in the UK.
