Happy Christmas Dave (and everyone else!). I can't believe that I sell wagons to a man who likes CATS!!!! Still, in the spirit of The Season - "it takes all sorts!". Leslie

Happy Christmas one and all

Alive and kicking updated my subscription recently and even managed to get a few issues I missed out on .

I haven’t seen any mention of the scars. Whatever it is, the whole scene is quite delightful. What about North Wall (MGWR)? Stephen

This is probably a longshot but is this newsletter still up and running?

Hi all! Thank you to whoever replied to the comment I left in may and apologies for only seeing it now. Life’s been hectic on my end but man am I glad to see 124 up and running in that video! Hopefully the rest of the rolling stock might get a better end at some point

Every new Ernie post is like opening Christmas presents!

Looks way nicer that the prototype, which must have been a horrible place to work, especially in winter. Handsome 2-4-0 lurking in the background.

Swillybegs will be at Southampton next month and know Andy will be there too, so maybe see you there as well. David

Constitution Hill Shed has a nice ring to it...or perhaps Broadstone Low Level? Connaught Street perhaps?

Of course they will, Bob. I won't show the video until they do! Incidentally, it was great fun getting your lovely bogie coach onto the high level track. Thanks to @Galteemore I have a good "railer" and it slid on with ease - you certainly need them with the six wheelers! All part of Life's rich pattern!

Subtle weathering but convincingly grubby. Those are perfect Patrick.

Strange. Same thing has happened to me, but the opposite. About four months ago, my emails alerting me to a notification began going into my spam. Like you, I confirmed it not as spam, but it continued to happen. Then, I stopped getting email notifications completely. For no reason whatsoever, over the last four or five days, I've started receiving email notifications again.

IRM H VAN I got a set of IRM H vans and wanted to have a go at weathering them. The upper body was done only with weathering powders and the underframe was done with enamel paint.

After a few slow days, it's back to normal for me at the moment. But, I have just been reminded that any emails alerting me to an incoming PM on here are being popped into Spam by my Gmail account, despite me always confirming them to be 'Not spam'.

Happy Christmas to all followers of Tara junction.

We were at Odiham in 1967 & 8.

Any ideas for what kind of set up you’ll be modelling in terms of prototype? Looks a great start. We used to live in NW Hants between Basingstoke and Fleet……I modelled Kato N gauge out of the box back then!

Thanks Ernie and I really enjoy your Scottish photos 2

Phew, as it's the only forum I am on, I thought me auld phone was giving up the ghost

No, I wouldn't say so. All other sites are behaving perfectly normally. And apart from that, a lot of other members seem to be having some trouble on and off as well. Working fine at the moment. Strange. Thanks for the reply

One down, one to go... I remember now why I model other prototypes in O gauge...

Thanks for the interest guys, Mol as far as standards go I'm going for EM on 21mm and I do like your "Silver" engine, early days yet, my own motive power looks set to be a C class (in silver) and a G class (later type in black) and when new patterns are made hopefully a second (earlier) G class to be in green. Galteemore, I live in NW Hampshire so as you say not too far away. It's early days yet, points to build and sleeper bases are hopefully on their way to me, baseboards are part new build and part recycling, the design will be quite simple but we can look at this at some point in the future.
