  1. The 121 announcement was in this month's BRM
  2. Aye, the grey livery, despite being drab and..let's face it, boring, really did suit the old Irish steamers, especially when it went that sort of dusty looking blacky-grey after being cleaned(ocasionally) with a greasy rag. Durty, but lovable. the new grey on the 071s looks really well, gives them a nice subtle clean look. I disliked the black and silver livery and that didn't suit them, and the ones still in it look like they are on their last legs...
  3. I'm fairly sure all of Des's kits have their chassis supplied,as with most steam kits.
  4. So chances are it is a primer, so why apply the decals? Were they bored?
  5. Very nice. I believe some of the Yanks use tree bark for cliff faces. How's the Terminus itself looking. PM sent
  6. Thought originally that it was the tight bends on the layout so they were replaced with larger radius track, but the problems persist
  7. The problem with mine was that the pony truck keeps derailing. Very annoying.
  8. No, actually they were the more modern Hornby ones.
  9. When I bought a patriot and a Scot(to convert) I found both had problems with gears not meshing properly, and poor pulling power
  10. Recently finished the smokebox door on 402. Thanks to Des for supplying the handles:) Anyone willing to give up a King Arthur chassis for it?
  11. It was flown in to Craggy island by an Antov-an 124, I believe
  12. "Add new event" is on the top right of the calendar Kev. As for the "does" part...ehh...
  13. So what..a bunch of Celtic doodles on the sides? Ah jahsus..
  14. The dark green doesn't look to unlike the CIE dark green on (some) steam locomotives
  15. Well you are the expert on baby poo swirls..you wouldn't even have to get the airbrush out..
  16. Well the coaches are blue...suggesting she something on the loco will be blue.
  17. Maybe they are doing what they did with the enterprise? Couple of runs first, and then finish the paint job?
  18. Although it's a nice livery..it will never catch on, and it will weather terribly....
  19. Built to a Glenderg standard of perfection. Take a bow sir, I can't wait to see the finished product
  20. Great, I would love to talk trains with you, and how you build them!
  21. Well scale puddles are the pinnacle of railway modelling, so so you and Mr G can take a bow. Hope to be at Cultra in November myself!
  22. +1. Pempoule might be good, but does it have scale puddles?
