  1. A telltale pool on the floor by the toilet bowl?
  2. I think that's going to need some 4mm scale food and drink to go in there....
  3. I wonder if I could use Guinness as a fuel additive?
  4. The era when Claremorris had a track layout worth replicating Compared to how it is today from the road side....
  5. That's not much less than I paid for my 1988 Citroen CX back in 2017!!
  6. Looks similar to the ones that were used as mountaineering equipment
  7. ...and the grudging, surly service?
  8. Not if you're a railway accountant. If you look at what the LMS did when creating the first two "Rebuilt Claughtons" (i.e. leading directly to the "Patriot"), the engines were to all intents and purposes new, with only the Claughton driving wheels, bogie wheels and maybe the bogies being reused. Doing it that way seems to mean the capital account is unaffected, as you count it as repairs instead. 'Tis all creative accountancy.
  9. That "...mental turf-burning locomotive" is several shades of insanity, but might work as a conversion kit to be added to an existing 355 class.
  10. Looks like it was superheated as well, owing to the extended smokebox
  11. Did he keep the reject etches? There might be enough viable parts in them to create one or two more sets....
  12. That may have been coincident with Backwoods Miniatures, which was also trying to make narrow-gauge more finescale
  13. Is Tony's method based on hand-drawn artwork rather than CAD?
  14. There's all sorts of things going on in that D14 - it looks like two or three different designs in one.
  15. Funny you mention that. Many years ago, the late Lynden Emery started a narrow-gauge group within the Scalefour Society, applying P4 standards. It seemed to be going well until he died, after which development work tailed off.
  16. An idea for an elaborate conversion kit there....
  17. How does it compare to the oul Mainline and current Bachmann bodies?
  18. The Rover P6 never quite recovered from its depiction in that show....
  19. That's cheap compared to this greedy eejit
  20. If he replies, please could you let him know there's a second set of etches that will find a ready buyer here? I'm not on RMWeb. Thanks in anticipation.
  21. I'd certainly consider putting my name down for a kit to build Lough Erne, one of the 1949 pair.
  22. I'm not sure I'd want a compromised 21mm. It would be like HO RTR standards, but 87/76ths bigger.
  23. Too late again.... *shrugs*
  24. I meant generally.
  25. Des: Out of interest, would it be possible to reduce the existing 7mm scale artwork down to 4mm scale?
