  1. There's generations' worth of lack of values.
  2. Mainly because, in recent years, it seems to bring out the worst in people.
  3. Fintown doesn't seem to be a priority for those ostensibly running the place....
  4. I've been in on a couple of occasions and concluded it was the sink of Hell. Also, when the Edmonton branch of IKEA opened, there was a mini-riot as customers abandoned their cars all over the North Circular Road outside in the rush to get in and, once indoors, people actually fought each other for possession of bargains. Feral people, feral behaviour, feral society.
  5. Not workable for those using P4 profile wheels, unfortunately. Requires new wheels bushed down to take the 1.5mm stub axles, and quite likely longer insulating muffs to prevent the wheelset going wobbly.
  6. Don't forget to sprinkle some Mr. Curry curry powder over it
  7. The 8210/8310 was the smallest mobile I'd ever seen. I bet a fair few of those were smuggled into prisons back then.
  8. Quite easy to convert to 21mm gauge, as has been demonstrated quite a few times now, with no major dismantling needed. Best of all, sister company Accurascale provides correct diameter P4 profile wheels, albeit intended for their Deltic.
  9. It's also a way of ensuring nobody else tries to resurrect the business. A bit like car companies such as BMW have done with many old British marques.
  10. It's like a box of expensive chocolates but, in this case, you know exactly what you're going to get....
  11. Hope springs eternal
  12. It has arrived... The bogies are definitely not 21mm-friendly. Come to think of it, they're not even normal P4-friendly, and would need a lot of filing at the back to make room for 18.83 wheelsets.
