Lovely stuff, @popeye! Love the various skips in particular. I’m sure @Rob will be wondering what you haul them with…

@j11sty asking elsewhere on the forum about this… EDIT: Accurascale / IRM project status updates HERE.

1:24 vs. 1:48 vs. 1:76…

Correos Express just delivered a FedEx parcel from Accurascale! Only €50 odd in taxes and fees, which is very reasonable compared to DHL, and super ultra mega quick - it would have literally taken months if it had been regular Correos / Royal Mail. No “RMWeb” rattling from the parcel either.

Looks the same as our good buddies at Spray Tan Fresno a few years back: If it looks too good to be true, run the other way…

66236 in Le Havre, France, this week… Maybe a future limited edition!

Acceptable. Very very acceptable!

This resonates, hitting all the right buttons… I just forgot the “going back afterwards” bit.

Take your pick…..

Love the double track loop. I could sit and watch one of those for hours and hours.

Is that recovery truck from Tiny City? Any chance we’ll see a VT47 visiting?

Is it Friday, yet?

That’s a relief! Worsley Works is the only option for O Gauge Cravens, Park Royals and Laminates.

Just watched your video on YT. Fabulous stuff, @Westcorkrailway! Was there just one cable doing the winching? Was there much work involved in getting them rolling freely for the loading?

That sound is incredible!

Just caught the latest Tara Junction video on YouTube - liked of course! Love the weathering on the fuel oil tanks.

Thanks, @RedRich! Even though we’ll probably never see them, it’s nice to know a bit about the history.

Hells Kitchen! Had forgotten about them. Jon’s are 1:32 and run on Gauge 1 track, so even bigger than the O Gauge. He also offers them in 1:30,5, I think, but can’t remember the common name for that scale. EDIT: Found the other thread on them!

Anybody able to shed any more light on the 071 and 201? Were the ten 071’s kits? Who made them? And who proposed making the 201 kit? I found this site with pictures of an O Gauge Class 59, built by Mike Williams, which may or may not be that mentioned by @RedRich above. Does the “HK” in @rimfix’s post refer to Hong Kong built? Hoping to jog some dusty memories here!

Mmmmmh, spaghetti…

Mmmmmh, cookies… Will we be getting tins of Accurascale cookies if we buy more than one loco from a range?

Well, who will be first to give us blue Maersk containers? No more grey: “The big reveal! Our grey containers will now proudly wear the iconic Maersk blue! This makeover welcomes our containerized service to join the blue of our freight carriers at sea, on land, and in the air. Back in 1975, we introduced our first containerized line – the Panama Line – and the grey dry container became a global symbol of Maersk reliability. Now, nearly five decades later, our containers are painted to match the color that encapsulates our more than 120 years of moving customers’ cargo. More than a symbol of our brand and legacy, the Maersk blue stands for trust. And our containers represent the trust of our customers who have entrusted their goods to Maersk.” comments Sam Poulter, Global Head of Branding & Content at Maersk. “As our most visible brand asset, to celebrate that trust, our grey containers will now proudly bear the Maersk blue that is already the hallmark of our iconic vessels, planes, cranes, trucks, vans and logistics facilities.” Taken from The Shipping Herald.

These are perfect for anybody who wants extra running numbers to go with the forthcoming batch.

Terrific stuff, @ttc0169! Keep forgetting that this is all N Gauge.
