Quick replacement of the receiver and Servo and your off, I would expect they had a spare or 2 ready. Probably planned to have a dunk in the drink to draw in the viewers. I Never believe anything you see on TV these days. all construed.

Episode on 4OD website now if you missed it, Watch 30 mins of it last night before the cold I have forced me to bed. Looked ok.

"level of scale finesse may not be good enough" >> Really Noe?l, I doubt this is hardly the case. Have you taken a look at some of their latest Offerings?. I can only vouch for what I have bought which is mostly SR related and I can say I am astounded when you view the details on some of these models now from Hornby. The Original condition MN are a Fantastic model. The S15 is sublime, Fast Becoming a Favourite of mine with excellent running from taking it out of the box and onto the track, the Cab interior detail is excellent to look at. The H Class is a beauty, similarly their class 71 is a nice model too. The SR Maunsell Coaches, Gresley's, Pullmans are Fab runners (no wobbly coaches or fuzzy demarcation between colours) and excellent fine Details. While there undeniably are some dogs from earlier years I do think they have finesse with there current High level offerings which match the 071, 201s easily. Maybe take another look when you next passing a model shop

Well no Little SECR Tank engines this time but a nice Blue MN, an up to date Lord Nelson (my old ones are split Chassis and DCC and run quite well so what to do with them!!) Some nice SR coaches from Baccy and Hornby so the only compliant I have is that it will be an expensive year if I chose to part with my cash. Having said that I think I really have enough Loco in my Stable at present not to warrant adding even more.

Fab quality for 1989 GNRI, Just shows a good picture stand up well. What were you shooting on Medium Format?

Yeah Dave Megapoints Contoller with Bounce , Operated by Servos. you could motorise the SSM signals easily enough with that system

Great look layout, Nice and Simple and not too much Clutter. Nice work on the Dapol station too.

Beautiful set up John.

ah now Ernie. Loads to do yet for the SR. I love a Z or a W class Tank in all fairness. The Q and U are yet to be done. Of course Everyone should have a P in there collection, Lovely little Loco. We will have to wait n see! cheers George

Oh wow, just what the Doctor ordered When looking at this no chain actually goes around the Large wheels at the other end? Ever in Debt! tks Much.

People playing trains all over Ireland it seems the week then!! Take a look the the link below, Very funny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eGxoNMFE3s

Ta, Did so but zero reply. Best drop em to work I reckon in future.

Hi Lads, I broke into my stash or MIR models recently and I am building 10 Curtain Sided Cement Wagons and 4 of the Larger wheels and chains wagon. I know you chaps are fonts of knowledge and was wonder if any one has a piccy of the Chain arrangement for both ends or even a diagram for same as for the life of me I cannot work how it works out. Most photo when zoomed in loose their clarity and the instructions don't even depict the chain set up The Piccy below is the best one I can find on the net. II'll lash up some piccys when I get a moment.

Luckily I got mine today!, Can I ask about the DPD contract you have?. My first package was left outside my door in a Estate. How it was not pilfered I don't know and the second one exactly the same. Before I lash an Email off to DPD are they Obliged to get a POD signed for. There is a Spate of Thefts recently, not restricted to my own area but it all seems a bit Careless by DPD to leave it outside my gaf in view of everyone. I will change the Delivery address for any future things to work I reckon to be safe. Dunno what anyone else thinks? Thanks anyway lads. dunno how you manage the effort this time of the year but you did it. enjoy the break lads!. I am out to the shed to run a train around the 1st laid loop on the layout. the Merchant Navy s will be taking a break tonight Yippie!!

Massive Stuff, if anything I learnt there was a third Livery on the Cements. did not know that. Whens that run coming out then!!

Hi folks, Any of you in a Dark Sky area can see these, Just been out for 10mins and roughly one 1 minute of Varying brightness, Look SSE and upwards and you should see them It peaked last night but still some a spectacular sight. cheer George

Noel will have to bring his fag and uniform and get himself scanned at Warley is suitable posture. Impressive work Noel.

Hello JHB, Are the points Electro or Insulfrog please. Do you have the Catalog Numbers as I might be interested in those plus the track? How many lengths do you have? Regards George

Yes Must kick into that one asap. Any Black 5's around gratefully accepted as I need one for a Chassis.

Beauty is the Eye of the Beholder. This model was at the engineering exhibition in Ally Pally a few years back. Stunning GT3 5 1/2 inch gauge model.

Cannie Wait! I start my Kit I have and that will ensure it pops out of a mold somewhere!

IRM have drained and will continue to lighten the pockets of Railway Modellers for the foreseeable future it seems.Myself included!!. A Good thing no doubt but not a good time to flog stuff. Now do I Really need a 14 car APT.

Wow, should turn out nice in O gauge, I keep checking in on this one. Bexley eh, We used to live on Eversley Avenue in the 70's. The house used to overlook the Railway line. We could of been neighbours!!

While you doing a Sambo, could you do a Pat as well?

Thanks GD, I went with Red Oxide (just looked at the side of the paint tin!!) Phew but did paint 2 black and they do look smart to boot especially with the Blue Keg surrounds (were they ever blue!!), ah well the Airbrush will be back out tomorrow night. I'll have to knock the BR out of me with that Bauxite talk. off to kip now. G
