Yup. Loving that one.

An E class / J26! Very tasty. Fine resoration of the building, how cold is it in teh winter though?

Never mind the lighting, I'm loving the roof panel lifting hoops! Seriously, that wiring is just perfect for an analogue layout.

Sound man!

Masterful and some amount of work. I'll be adding this to my etch "to-do" list.....

Well, thats me hooked!

Wow, what a place. Good find there. A REAL toyshop.

Damn! That is fine work, scratchbuilding at its finest.

Good God, it's not far off Frank Herbert's concept of the Hunter Seeker in Dune. http://dune.wikia.com/wiki/Hunter-seeker

Sweet looking loco there Kirley! Well done.

Good man. You obviously went to Specsavers Dave.

MMMMMM. Ral numbers and everything. Blaine, could you list the RALs, some are a bit hard to make out

You had me at "Found this recently" Dave . Send on your wish list.

Lovely job done! A question, were those tara's got via Donedeal in Waterford? I saw a brace of them on it some time ago..I didn't purchase as too much on the plate at the time.

Very nice work Richie. I don't want to even guess the hours spent...

Kirley, great to see her moving under power, but by God, that 121 passed her at some speed!

River, Thanks for that, I've a fair idea of the underside at this stage, now I just need time to design it.

Platform2, yes it is free. If you have purchased a kit, then email me directly and I will post one out.

Richie, I modelled the exhaust port as it currently exists, at a type of all-over cover. Perhaps this was added post-retirement? The Q Class version is quite incorrect in the number of roof panels added so its open mouthed exhaust may also be conjecture. I'll pop up a photo of the extant version when I'm back at base.

Based on some direct requests I am delighted to announce that I have finalised and approved a Sulzer retrofit grill pack that will be available to customers on request. I should have it in stock in two weeks time.

When the 16-ton tram came at them, those waiting at the Karlovo namesti tram stop couldn't flee- a barrier separating the platform from the street blocked their way. A 59-year-old man was crushed to death and three people were critically injured in the March 16 accident, while a 64-year-old woman standing nearby was killed when the tram flung her into the path of a car. City transit officials, however, point out that such accidents are rare and call Prague's 20-year-old fleet of trams safe. The crash, the worst tram accident in Prague this year, brought the death toll involving trams to four in three months. At first officials said track failure or a breakdown with the tram itself could have been to blame. But then witnesses said the driver had taken the 90-degree turn that leads into Karlovo namesti - heading westbound from the Stepanska stop - at an unusually high speed. The speed limit there is 15 kilometers (nine miles) per hour. Police later said the tram was going 32 kilomers per hour. The front car of tram 22 stayed on track, but the back car lurched off. An eyewitness told Mlada fronta Dnes that the driver "was going like a crazy man." The driver, only identified as Jiri P., had 13 years of experience without incident, said Michaela Kucharova, spokesperson at the city's Traffic Authority, and had passed his yearly "health, psychological and procedural" exams. He suffered a nervous breakdown after the accident, said Kucharova, and his license has been suspended pending investigation. http://www.praguepost.com/archivescontent/40781-trams-called-safe-despite-accidents-deaths.html

Lovely job, great paint finish and crisp modelling work.

Rapier wit, our Wrenn. Superb.

Damn, knowing those authors, that will be a fine read.

I really like the second photo. The real deal. I take it that was fresh cat litter...out of the bag like
