Well guys I have to say that I didn’t know there was such a choice...!  So what would be your choice of point motors..! & the reason I ask is for when I get to start the build of my layout I’ll be planning on using Peco Code 75 Wooden sleeper Flexi track, ( not that I know anything about track or what track points will work or not...! ) TIA

Hi  Irishswissernie & I hope you won’t mind me asking you about the size of this layout, as I had planned a layout similar to yours, but life got in the way.   Anyway can you please tell me what’s the length & width of this layout, I do notice that one side is wider than the other, & if you don’t mind would you send the details in ft. & in. please btw that’s a mega looking setup you have, & modelling skills,

Paul

Hi guys, very recently I’ve found something I think we modellers like to have in our chest, closet, drawer shelf or whatever, to hold our little bits of models, tools etc. etc. & it’s this.  A handy little box, made of clear plastic, & you can get one, or two or maybe more of you fancy going into Tesco, & soon, as I don’t know how long more the stocks are on sale, as of today, there only €8.00 a box of 24, & the bonus that’s making these little treasures very attractive is the boxes contain Ferrero Rocher chocolates.. so now you can be the bees knees by buying a box, or two for the Mom in your life...!  ..& while you’re in the LITTLE ANGELS hallowed area,  just suggest that when Mom has finished with the chocolates, you will take care of the EMPTY box for her.. making you as said the little hero... I’ll put a photo of the box, full & empty on to show what I mean,     
 & btw, I will not take any responsibility for any Bribery, Cons, Trickery, Scamming, Hoodwinking, Tomfoolery, Sweet Dealing,

& the chocolates are nice....very nice..!

Don't be giving them ideas, BTB. It's already gonna be an expensive year with the A Class and who knows what coaching stock!

Hallelujah, I didn’t miss them, no wonder I couldn’t find them, so now I’m going to just sit back with a smile on my mug, and wait....

We only did 4 packs BtB. A,B,C and D

Hi & many thanks Bos, so now what does that tell you. obviously I’ve been dreaming & hoping for an 8 pack of Guinness Keg Liners, so much so that I thought I’d missed them, I have even checked back over what I’ve already bought, thinking I missed out... something tells me I need a rest.. I’m going to blame it on that Covid-19 thing, I don’t have it, I don’t want it, might as well blame it, it hasn’t done any good anywhere, good night one and all,

BTB

Hi DJ & thanks, but that’s still only showing the 4 2 packs of Guinness Keg Liners, A, B, C, D, but nothing about the full pack....!

There were four twin packs of Guinness Keg Liner wagons in the original release.

Is that what you are asking?

Hi & thanks DJ, that’s exactly what I’m taking about, I just don’t understand why IRM don’t have any reference to them on their site...!  They have sold out, so have if not all of their stock, a bloody large amount of it has, & good luck to them for that, I’m just puzzled by the lack of reference to them,

BTB

Hi guys, tell me didn’t the IRM Guinness Container Wagons Pack have 8 Wagons...cannot see any further reference to them on IRM only the pairs of wagons..

Hi Railer, any chance you can put up some photos, have an interest in the Guinness Kegs,

BTB

Now that’s what’s called nostalgia, Happy Days Noel, just goes to show you what our capabilities are when the need arises,

Bloody Hell Eoin, that’s one very serious piece of equipment, very well done sir, you could play with that for hours just by moving parts, magic,

Hi Paul. Why possibly the end of modelling? Fortunately have one of those, but not sure I understand 'end of modelling'?

Hi Noel, well at those sort of prices who’s gon’a pay them, I’m not for starters, but I’m thinking I might start selling...!! I have at least two of them, that I know of, haven’t seen them for a long time, & besides I don’t like that particular color scheme with the pointed black.. So it’s all yours...!
