Might be 42 degrees in Wollongong at the moment, but not in Bealman's backyard! :D

that is a lot of work with a huge bill to follow - 6 figures at least. hats off to the MYMR.
the only boiler work I was involved in was retubing 6106 at Didcot and a similar job on a traction engine - all boiler work is hard graft.

Regards,

Alex

Tried a few more when the daily limit on Copilot had cleared.

This wasn't a bad try, although it did derail the Jinty. It really fouled up the signal in front of the platform end so I erased that;


Another pretty good one, although it didn't seem to know about sheeted wagons - the one in front of the logs is more resembling a small tender now.


Now this one isn't too bad at all, it's had a good try at the nameboard.


Can't see much to complain about this one.


It had trouble with the nameboard here but at least it didn't replace it completely. It also struggled with spoked wheels but it didn't try and change the sizes.


Another very good try, my only real criticism here is the tunnel mouth.


It had a reasonable try with this one, but the tearoom roof was obviously asking a bit much.

Note for tickets purchased on the day there is no additional small fee.

Here is another attempt at colorizing my Britannia photo.  I changed the command in Google Gemini to be more specific as follows: 

   "Colorize this photo. Do not change any white steam - leave as original."

This is the result.


This manipulation looks much closer to the original B&W photo (see post #19, above) except AI has now added a fireman!

But has made the driving wheels different sizes :D

Yes, it seems to be undecided as to whether it's a 2-6-0 or a 4-4-0 with an overly long coupling rod.

At least it hasn't put people in the tender  :smiley-laughing:
