    I can think of someone who could make it a reality for you...

    They'd look decent in that grey...

    Cheers man, knew I hadn't completely lost the plot yet! 078, now 087.... Hopefully they go back and treat 071 and the others accordingly.

    Yep, 085 has this too. I think there is another one out there that's had similar treatment. Makes it far easier for us to spot!
  5. Whitemetal and resin I believe. You were moaning about kits, you were moaning about price, make your mind up! MIR professionally built will cost a good bit. Would love to see them back as much as anyone, but they wont be the cheap quick fix that some are looking for.
  6. Come on a bundle! Give me a bell, lost your number!
  7. Thought you wanted Ready to Run?
  8. That's a great bit of hammering driver 301, a OO gauge model of these is available too and tend to go cheap enough for a four car unit.
  9. If a Mark III is cut up and no gricer is there to witness the event, does it still exist?
  10. Look forward to seeing a video of her in her natural habitat around Connolly. You going to put the knitting up eventually too?
  11. I have a 166 but to be honest they don't look alike for me. Mine will be staying FGW which are currently worth a fortune on EBay!
  12. I like the livery itself, much better than that rotten old commuter livery. The yellow front could've been better but overall it's okay. It highlights at how little glass there is on the sides of these units though; a few small windows down the side. Don't strike me as particularly bright and airy. Also agree about the modern British liveries, apart from GNER there were very little if any I liked. Virgin is okay but not much after that. The freight company liveries tend to be much better.
  13. Yep, I thought Southern when I saw the curved dark green along the windows too. Not sure what model you could use to hammer a 29000 into?
  14. 1,000!?! Can you fit that many in Chez Glenderg!?!
  15. MIR kits as I said on Saturday! Or Leinster models if you want that promotion to super detective!
  16. These are the babies being used in the UK on the Drax Biomass flow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOJuvkzijLA As far as I know the biomass needs to be kept dry. While I'd love to see nice big hoppers on dedicated trains I'm guessing it'll be a few containers with a rag thrown over it.
  17. Ally Pally used to be my local show (literally, could walk to it from Muswell Hill), good to hear it's still going strong and is enjoyable as ever. Must go back one year for old times sake. A much better venue than Warley in my opinion!
  18. Pics now on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10202570495016454&set=pcb.314793772007321&type=1&theater
  19. They'd just have not eaten their greens in OO Land... Fantastic concept for a great layout and great modelling!
  20. The sad thing is that a 'one size fits all' product is not going to satisfy everybody. Some would rather something crude for buttons, others (like myself admittedly) would rather something true to prototype as much as possible and would be prepared to pay the extra for it. However, can the market sustain two products and a halving of the target audience? It's an interesting conundrum.
  21. It must be on your hard drive so
  22. About the best looking Silver Fox A I've seen Kieran, you really polished that up. Top drawer!
  23. well done George and best of luck.
