Ok, I have resolved my problem

Hello there! I have recently acquired a Heljan class 52 (D1000 specifically), lovely model, runs well, all lights working etc. However I have one small problem with it, the model’s end skirts and bufferbeams are in a plain black with the correct ones being supplied as an ‘optional extra’ (for reasons unbeknownst to me) very conveniently the instructions omitted any information on how to change these around, so if anyone has any advice, I’m all ears many thanks.

Very interesting, very convenient as I’ve just brought one to paint into UTA Green (not accurate I know, but certainly better than nothing) so the video guide will come in handy! Should that go well I might get some more to replicate or paint into CIÉ black and orange or green (also not perfect but it’ll suffice) regarding the Clestory coach, I recon it could be modified to look like the BCDR railmotor in auto train condition, though I can’t imagine this process being particularly easy

And I had another lapse in my judgment and ment Marks Models, whoops

As far as I’m aware they still do a jinty, currently available/pre order variants include LMS crimson lake, S&DJR black and blue and a BR black version in a train set. Not to mention the exclusive Murphy Models UTA variant In terms of coaches, I personally feel that the Parkside Midland suburban coach kits could easily be painted up into a wide variety of liveries, not necessarily accurate but not a bad shout in my opinion

whoops, I ment that!

Oh indeed, and I believe that’s an NCC railcar on the left too!

I know I’m rather late to this topic but here’s that W class in the dark green I don’t have much context on it, apparently it’s W 90, seen at York Road in 1950

Haha, I did, so I’ll probably get some cement bubbles and wait for something better to arrive. That method definitely worked with the NIR 101

Thanks for the feedback all, certainly interesting to get some different perspectives and answers! At the moment I’ll probably put buying a silver fox model on the back burner until I decide what to do (or at least until I get back from holiday next week) Despite not being 100% accurate livery wise, I’m definitely eyeing up one of their Black and Tan C class models, that or some Orange cement bubbles (or the correct answer which is both let’s be honest) Many thanks

Hi all, at the moment I’m considering buying a ready to run model from silver fox models, however I personally don’t have any experience or knowledge as to how good the models are, so I’m wondering if they are worth buying. I’d most likely go for the C class or something similar, possibly the AEC/2600 railcar (probably not the latter though) Many thanks

Hi all, for the past few months I’ve been building a number of locomotive models in Roblox Studio, these have all been ‘fictional with real life inspiration’. One of these (shown here) happened to be inspired by the GNRI S class, so I’d thought I’d share it here (Please remove if this is the wrong page for this, as I was unsure as to where to post it on the forum) Thanks

Now this one’s a bit of a stretch but I reckon a Bachmann LNWR precedent could make a good as built M&GWR class K, possibly a later GSR CIÉ G2 with modifications

Hi, I have completed the questionnaire. Apologies for the delay, I was busy with other things. many thanks, George. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/JFSR29Y https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/D5QQVKS

Apologies for the inconvenience, my guess is that the link won’t work due to restrictions, as I created the form using my school account. current working on a replacement survey, using SurveyMonkey. many thanks

Hi, apologies for the issues with the link, I’ll try to copy the questions into a different site, possibly survey monkey as suggested above. many thanks.

Hi there, For my A-level business coursework, l decided to create a business plan for a model train shop, however I need more data for my primary research. Would it be possible to fill out the attached form please, any results would be greatly appreciated and would help towards my A-level coursework. Many thanks. https://forms.office.com/e/Xwp62e62Ti

If it weren’t for the oo works Version, I’d say the j15, lots of potential for black and grey unrebuilt and rebuilt versions, possibly even oil burning and special editions.

As much as I would love an 800, I wouldn't mine a V or S class, which I think are most likely.

@murrayec, I'll look and see what I can find. many thanks.

Hi there, I am thinking of purchasing a trix steam locomotive soon, most likely the SJ 1200, does any one know if these models will run using the Hornby R8250 controller, also are there any apps that could be used to control the models digital functions? many thanks.
