  1. A 51% stake in Accurascale!
  2. Apples and oranges. Comparing extreme poverty to any standard of living, even living paycheck to paycheck, will make it appear “wealthy”. Likewise, comparing somebody living paycheck to paycheck, to somebody with an electric Porsce, changes that dynamic. Comparing the electric Porsche driver to Jeff Bezos changes it again. So, I’d say yes, it comes across as a very broad generalisation.
  3. That’s why private and paywalled collections are going to be so valuable in the future. We haven’t been given the context for this photo. Quite possible that the original poster was openly displaying their AI generated work and asking for opinions. A different hobby, but this video analysis shows just how such initial honesty and openness can be twisted, misused or taken out of context:
  4. The idea was that by using a specific carrier (possibly Royal Mail?), there was a high probability of the item being delivered tax-free. Several months back, I think it was USPS, said that they didn’t have the manpower so were letting parcels under a certain value slip by without charging the taxes that the buyer is obliged to pay. In fairness, that’s a bit of an odd generalisation. Perhaps customers are borrowing, eating into life savings, or selling off items from a previous hobby, to fund their habit. Just because people are spending does not dictate a surplus of disposable income.
  5. The ICR’s are gonna be awesome. I have my shuttle controllers ready for them!
  6. Gotta subsidise the lives of the Epsteins and Trumps of the world with the blood of the workers!
  7. Perhaps a screenshot of the original post including the poster might help.
  8. Early 2026 likely for the Class 66: https://railsofsheffield.com/blogs/news/dapol-o-gauge-class-66-major-project-update
  9. Hopefully Brookhall goes to a good home and gets a new lease of life. I wonder if a potential buyer could replace the fiddle yard with a loop and sidings, space permitting, of course, allowing them a little more operational scope.
  10. MCG 1:18 Scania 143M (with a Road Kings DAF 3600 lurking behind), been after this one for ages!
  11. Another lovely Scania from IXO:
  12. Revell 1:18 Honda NSX, finally! Have wanted an NSX for a long time but they usually go for insane money.
  13. Poor 162, rest in pieces.
  14. Lovely stuff, @popeye. The dummy couplings on the 2700 are an excellent idea, they really pop.
  15. I have some shuttle controllers to test, hopefully this week.
  16. What rough order are the next few projects likely to arrive in? I see some members getting anxious over the Park Royals in a duplicate thread. Are the Park Royals more likely some time after the 22000’s have landed? Please say yes!
  17. And that’ll have to do for now, as duty calls:
  18. What ever happened to the garden layout, @Georgeconna?
  19. It is indeed! A three-legged one that needed a place a few months back.
  20. I have a little help with this today:
  21. A friend from Las Palmas was over a few days ago for a visit. He surprised me with two lovely gifts from his holiday in Japan a few months back!
