This is a different photo of the lost dog Tank that showed up at my gate one day. This was shot the same day as the last photo but processed a bit different. Such a sweet dog. His soul was so kind and loving. I'll never forget that.
With the willow-herb going to seed and some leaves just starting to turn for autumn, DB Cargo Shed 66139 pulls away from Northwich following a reversal stop with what I think is the 10.58am Folly Lane ICI - Arpley Sidings (6F82).
The shot was taken back in 2017 when train intel from the usual sources no longer seems to be available. I opted to snap this early on exiting the loop to catch the sun on the side of the tanks.
Going off to the right is the single track to Sandbach, via Middlewich, and behind me is the other side of the triangle.

The alumina tanks forming 6S45 to Fort William cast shadows on the gable ends of the North Blyth terraces in the low morning sun, with 66740 waiting for departure time. Thursday 21.4.16.

Grapevine Mills indoor shopping mall offers visitors more than typical shopping and dining experiences. This aquatic experience is just one example.
I tried to find micro LEGO tanks like these but I had no luck. Surely, they have been made like this before. If you know where they have been made before let me know and I'll update this.
Interestingly, some of the epaulettes fit nicely and some are too small. Not sure if the mold was changed at some point but the old ones fit better.
Demersus MKVIII
Quasi-rhomboidal Heavy Tank of Holy Preceannesia
Based on an early tank model from a previous war, Demersus was a large yet respectably maneuverable heavy tank, outfitted with seven machine guns and two sponson-mounted cannons. Despite being notoriously unreliable, the MKVIII was a symbol of power sure to turn the tide in trench warfare.
Crew: 12-13
Armament: 7x 7.915mm machine guns, 2x 57mm cannons
Mass: 34 tons
Length: 36’
Height: 9’8”
Engine: V-12 Motrax 300hp engine
Years produced: 1918-21
Max speed: 6.2 mph
This was a surprisingly quick build; the outer sides are identical and the central section with the superstructure is pretty simple.
This tank is so similar to the Renault FT which is probably one of my favorite looking tanks due to its size. I think it turned out well. My only issues are that the front sloping is slightly too large, the track section bothers me a little. This is all mine and Greg's design.
Let me know what you think!
