    You will sometimes hear horror stories about MDF being toxic - it does, however, like many natural woods do, have some issues to contend with. http://www.hse.gov.uk/woodworking/faq-mdf.htm A lot of the problem is more a result of modern machinery producing finer and more easily inhalable dust. It's not a huge issue for an amateur. And you won't get splinters!

    From the other side - interview with Gunther Rall.

    The modern Sundeala K board is made from waste paper. My memory of the older stuff suggests that it had much longer wood fibres in it. http://www.sundeala.co.uk/sundealak/ I did do a chipboard layout in a covered external situation - car-port - and we had no issues with is.

    There certainly seems to be a general feeling against Sundeala amongst current modellers, some of the pro-Sundeala camp may be as a result of using it many years ago - the modern stuff seems to be quite different from how it was twenty/thirty years ago.

    This sort of thing, with a plywood sheet on top. The amount of bracing required depends upon the thickness of the top sheet. The holes aren't strictly necessary, but reduce the weight slightly and can be handy to pass wiring through.

    Another "extremely rare" bus fire. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-33004621

    It depends upon where the train will be stopping, not all platforms are the same length.
  8. Broithe
    Platform lengths restrict the train length for passenger services.

    Some chat about foam boards here - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/4587-PVC-foamcore-baseboards?highlight=baseboards . A lot can depend upon whether it's a permanent structure, or not..

    Marvellous picture - well worth the (your) effort.

    Picture doesn't work for me..

    We've had this thread - http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/1957-Cleaning-loco-wheels?highlight=wheels - in the past.

    Might be this thing.

    Definitely worth making the effort to see. http://irishrailwaymodeller.com/showthread.php/2681-Ballyconnell-Road

    A friend of mine is active in market research for the perfume industry - I told her that I usually wear White Spirit by B&Q - it sounds like such a "perfume-type" name - well, it turns out that it (almost) really exists. http://www.perfumemaster.org/Galerie-Noemie/White-Spirit-Womens-Perfume/Pictures There are also perfumes called Garda and Copper....

    I don't see it on Google Maps - - I wonder how long it's been there?
  17. Broithe
    How long before Glenderg models it...?
  18. Broithe
    Anybody been there? They, apparently, have an ex-IÉ coach turned into a café. http://www.caraghnurseries.ie/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/Caragh-Nurseries/110445555714883

    Good advice - it's not just you - I've had problems with sources that I regularly correspond with and stuff still gets "Spammed" - and, as you say, items that that might expect in the Inbox can be in Social, Promotions, or wherever. Check the Spam every week - that's my advice. I've had no problems with yours (as far as I know, of course). A friend of mine got a letter the other day from his electricity supplier asking if they had his correct address - if it was correct, he was to do nothing, but if it was wrong, they asked him to correct it - I don't think they had thought that through....

    Good luck!

    I've just received one today.

    I still get them, but they are not as frequent as they used to be. I had one on March 24th. I have found, though not with Marks, that some genuine stuff ends up in Spam these days - it's worth looking in there every week or so, mine deletes stuff that's been in there for 30 days..

    It's nice to be (almost) appreciated.
