  1. I've no idea what the fuss about Twitter is all about! or how it makes money. Obviously not enough, as they gave a good whack of their staff the boot through an email only recently
  2. That's what I'm talking about Glenderg! Very nice Now all I've got to do is build the layout to run em on! That said, it'd be stupid of me to not buy stock while it is available, just because I've no layout yet. I have a mostly converted attic to use for housing a layout - just to come up with a plan for one & make a start
  3. I placed an order for 4 packs, with the staggered payment option. I reckon a rake of 12 would look the part behind a 141, along with a plough van or two
  4. Cool - give me time to put some cash away in anticipation!
  5. I hope there will be an announcement at the Oct show. They would compliment the baby GMs released so far, and would be of interest to a lot more people, as they cover such a large period of time. I for one will be buying a couple of each livery variation that is released
  6. 4x Jouef Mk3 coaches from Rails of Sheffield, may be of use to someone here. They are the 8 window type http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-Assorted-OO-Gauge-Jouef-BR-Blue-Grey-Mk3-Coaches-/161815558490?hash=item25acf5795a
  7. That Shapeways 121 & detailing pack looks really crisp, although the pics are only of a rendered one. Anyone try one of them yet, and if so, what donor did you use (preferably a dcc ready one)?
  8. The way people cross / walk along the tracks, I'm not surprised. One driver they were talking to had hit over 30 people in his career
  9. Mind boggling the stats, from numbers carried - 2 million per day, to deaths - 9 per day. Excellent punctuality stats too - 95~98%. Next week they are going to be looking at per way maintenance & also the new stock coming into service. Well worth the watch!
  10. Great link that, Noel. I've bookmarked it for the future, as he has some nice prices on G scale stuff too
  11. Site dedicated to bridge strikes in Durham, NC: http://11foot8.com here's their youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/yovo68
  12. I think I'll be using mine as static models on an insulated track in a depot, as stored locos
  13. All good reasons for having the #1 end leading on the 201s!
  14. You don't want to go breathing in dust from MDF
  15. I grabbed the two IE large logo 071s, the Galway set restaurant & genny van coaches, and mk2 coaches 5210 & 5217
  16. You'd have to be a collector alright - they are the most god-awful looking yokes those repainted Hymeks!
  17. voted! Some layout you got there - well done!
  18. The definition of insanity - repeating something again & again and expecting different results!
