Fantastic bit of kit, Thought out well too, I Like the ideas of the servos too as they are much kinder to the point and great possibilities with signals. Can see one of these being purchased in the future. Seems fairly Straight forward to work out how to do it also!! Thanks for throwing this up. G

Well the Postie arrived yesterday with a Parcel from the southern Hemisphere and by god what a package. Upon opening the box you are greet with a fairly substantial instruction sheet as well as some illustrations and a bit of history of the van. The brass was each packaged in its own Tissue paper,Lovely white metal pieces in a separate bag, Clear Acetate for the windows, Pre rolled roof and pre rolled side. In fact Mr Mayner has not left much out in all fairness. The kit looks exquisite. I told myself to hold back but I started as small bit tonight. There are some Fiddly bits to do, The Gangways probably the most difficult part. Over all a well thought out kit with Clear and Concise instructions that don't Confuse a Nation!! 10 out of 10 form me so far!! Heres some shots of the bits n bobs. Thnak you John for the Excellently Pre rolled Sides and roof!! Heres the Start. Sides and Ends Folded. Could not help Myself, Test fit of the Fantastic Roof Cheers G

Wow, They look Brilliant and almost could build themselves. Can wait to see them in the Flesh!

Cheers Rich.This had roof detail in the form of a Square section where the Exhaust pipes pop out. Has BB on the Etch though. The Grills aer soldered onto the inside.

Hi Lads, Aint done much in the Way of Building but have moved on and corrected the A Class over size white stripe and the little angle at the cab end. it was bugging me. Also restarted a Bill Bedford Mk.3 EGV Van, Not a good as SSM ones to be sure.. Hope to be able to stick a bit more up and I am getting back into the Swing of thing now. Cheers George

That sounds pretty good, Love the Exhaust note.

Despressingly Bloody good, The Little Railcar unit is fab as well.

Cements look pretty good to me and not a bad price either!!

Must take a look at those Eamonn - missed em. Met the guy the other week and a nice chap as well.

Not a GWR man myself but she will go well next to the City of Truro!!

Both Gone.

Hi lads, Got thee of these for sale 3 Lima Class 201 Locos. All locos never were Run by owner, all boxed, Detail Parts included, Boxes are care worn. Locos are in Mint condition. Tested and they run well. L205022 NIR Blue 208 E75.00 L205021 NIr Enterprise E70.00 208 River Lagan L205159 IE Original Yellow Scheme 216 River Dodder E75.00 PM me for any other information.

IHMO the difference is Minimal and barely Detectable, I Have fitted a 201 with Bass Enhanced speaker and have one without. I feel not much is noticeable between the 2. Changed a speaker in a Kernow class 205 as well and the sound basically was the same. Might be my hearing though being around jets n stuff over the years.

Dapol did some N gauge Dummy units that had a lower cost that the powered one. A few guys I know have gutted their 141s to run as a dummy behind a powered unit as there was a bit of performance difference after a while A Dummy unit Makes sense to me once the cost can come down, If not then no point..

Looking Good John.

Merry Christmas everyone! No snow this year but I wait in hope. Many thanks for your support during 2013, Hope 2014 brings you joy and Happiness (and some 121s as well!!)

Sign of things to come really. Walk in to a shop to buy, say an Airfix kit and you will chose the Mark, Decals, Add ons etc and printed off while you have a coffee. Stuck in a box and off you go to stick it together.

You get a wall Hanger insert for the Bombay so you can hang it vertically off the Wall!!! Are you getting the 1/32 Lanc???

Spot on Glenderg. God knows what else lies around the network waiting to spring a surprise....

Goodness, those poor Southern Locos are taking a new life on all for a good cause. Could not bear to do that to my beloved Southern Engines.

Any chance of a look at the Bomb Bay please?. This the new tool Hk Models One? Looks Fab.

Nice stuff there, Will we see it next year is a long shot. Cant wait to get the 2-Hal and the Black Motor!!!
