That Rainbow shot is Lovely.

Had a Nice chat with Leslie and saw the Wagons, They certainly looked fab but unfortunately or luckily l left my wallet locked in the Drawer at work!

woah, Might get a blue 201 then even though I have too many of the bloody things. much better price now.

Lovely model, The corrugations inside are sublime.

Track is crazy price in the shops here, Stems from Getting charged for Delivery from the UK to Ireland whereas the UK shops get free delivery from Peco. I worked in marks and even it was cheaper ordering it from the UK instead of buying it with a few bob off as a staff discount. shame really but mind the pennies as they say. Model Basboards Dave stocks Peco track now and I believe is competitive with the price. Nice one on the Point Building never heard of that before.

Brave Man!!

Mad stuff, Just add a flux capacitor and your off!!

Good Start there, Loads to do but the bones of it are showing!! !

Well I got a couple of my own to do and got 4 more for a chap I know to do for him so they were sitting there calling to be started. Although GD ones was Superglued and an immaculate job too I decided to go down the soldering route for these. I wonder why but anyhow this is the 1st one with about 4 hours work in it, Try to figure out the couplings not for the ends and then the white metal bits n bobs, had to give it a break for a short while so I took a few snaps. I found I had to look a a good few shots of these wagons to get where things went, I think a few more diagrams for chaps that dont know the ins and out of these wagons would help immensely. I have a few Roxly coaches to make and the instructions are all hand written then I read about Queenposts!!, WTH are they I thought, I was not long finding out but certainly a few piccys would he of great assistance. .

We should for a club.. Got some stuff that would take an hour to finish but it is always those unopened or carefully fingered kits that beckon them to be started..

Nice one, I was wondering if the brass would eat through the axle after a while, the bearings would defo improve resistance though. Sure we trail a few without and test em. Cheers keep up the good work!!

Just kicking into 4 of these and started my first one, Hope they come out a good as this, I was surprised that there is no bearings in the it and the wheels end just rest of the brass side frames, Have you run it as is Glenderg as I am wondering should i put some Top hat bearings in place? Cracking Model to put together, Soldering mine, Flipping no finger prints left from the burns!!

good to see mick is still alive and kicking!!

I did not notice the Wasp stripes under the green until now, Thing is there is quite a bit of work involved getting rid of the printed on stripes, logos etc, not least on this loco with all the detail on the front end logos etc. You only can charge so much for a repaint so it depends on what the market if prepared to pay. I have a BR one and it will be staying that way!!. from view distance they wont be so noticeable.

im lost what we meant to be looking at?

A17 is still on going the Mr Railwayman!

Hopefully coming to a shop near us in the not too distant future!! Thanks for the comments

MIR white Metal 121 nearly done, Lights are in, Just Need to add Horns and re attach a wiper, Some Exhaust oil and shes done.

Massive!!!

yeah, nice Decoders them but I think I ordered the wrong ones some time back, at least you can plug it out of it goes bang and switch to a new one without touching the wiring.

Ooops Silly me...Defo not a LMS man!!

Man Alive, A Fantastic loco to be announced, Can I convert from SR to the North west....Mmm I wonder... http://www.rapidotrains.com/single.html

After the Wexford renewed Emphasis to try and finish some stuff for a few folks so I can try to get a start on my own projects Lights going into an MIR 071, I used cut down PCB strips down the side of the loco and soldered the leds to that, Cuts down on the wiring and make the installation pretty solid. Front and rear leds are in now, Red leds tomorrow night, Finsh her off and a bit of weathering and off she goes..
