Hi irishthump,

Impressed with your mk3 super train rake,can I ask

Did you do those yourself or are they shop painted.

Love the layout and thanks in advance John-r

Totally agree with 201bhoy,great thread dave.i wouldn't have had a clue about most of the murphy model trains.

Also a very genuine guy to deal with.

Cheers john

Happy birthday dave,

See you soon.

Sometimes we all need a bit of laughter in life ? And for me this is just brilliant

Hi wiggy

Really enjoy your layout and updates , had to reply to your last video of the enterprise just brilliant looking.

Hi Karl,

Thanks very much for the photos,cannot believe the gen van is scratch built cracking job! Really looks the part,

It's a pity all the gen vans are so costly as they are needed to complete a rake.my modelling skills deserted me years

Ago lol . Really like your layout and again thanks for photot and feedback

Cheers. John

Moyasta sounds like a plan for a Sunday drive, won't tell herself until we get there ha,

Thanks very much for all the feedback Bsgsv

Cheers. John

Hi 33lima,

I have to say that is one seriously good looking piece of craftsmanship lovely model,

The shape is captured very well .have a fondness for the 80s myself

Cheers john

Hi barl,

Smashing looking layout,nice variety of rolling stock,but I really like the photo of your mk2a and rebuilt Dutch van.

Can you tell me is it a kit or ready made is it a dc kits one ? Really looks the part,

Nice to see a photo of what I was asking about.

Many thanks in advance

John

Hi 201bhoy,

Very enjoyable thread,your making great progress.

Can I ask a question,? What make and were did you get your mk3 coaches and genny van from

They really look the part, thanks in advance

Cheers. John

Rich,

That's an excellent and informative reply thanks very much. I just took A liking to the mk2a and like you

Hope the mk 2b/c make an appearance just for something different

Cheers. John

First class response bsgsv, sorry couldn't resist that.

Okay one last thing, the window surrounds were they

Black/ silver or am I starting to rivet count lol,

Cheers. John

Thanks very much for the replys stevieb and bsgsv more info than I knew ,

How many coaches were in each rake,

Cheers. John

Hi barl,

Thanks for that, I was at some stage looking to make a proper rake,I know they also used a rebuilt Dutch van in the formation

But nothing was coming up about the restaurant coach? Good idea about modelling on

Thanks again. John

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me if the mk2a coaches ran with a restaurant coach if so any pics

Also the mm coaches have silver surrounds but on some pics I saw they had black

Surrounds? Any comments would be welcome and a big thank you to wrenneire

For the coaches

Thanks in advance. John
