I got a small parcel from Royal Mail a while back.

It should have been signed for but he left it outside the door in the rain and left without a signature.

It was soaked as it was only wrapped in brown paper.

Very bad service. 

Very sorry to hear this.

A very big shock. RIP Noel. 

Hornby a model world on to night 8.00pm 16.01.23.

New series on channel Yesterday 27.

Second time lucky.

That looks amazing, so much detail.

It will be nice with people trains. 

Anyway, back on track.

Hornby a model world is on now Thur 9.00 channel 27 but it is a repeat.

Way off topic.

Did they not have one with flute?

Nice figures and cats.

You will need yellow lines on platforms or they might loose their legs and become loco drivers. 

Must be cancelled, there is another war doc on instead. 

Hornby, A Model World. Tonight 8.00pm.  Yesterday channel 27.

Some car spray paint have a high chrome finish, I haven't tried any but worth having a look at.

Much better printing. 

DAPOL COBELFRET 45ft Containers.

Just arrived yesterday from Hattons the Cobelfret 45ft containers.

They are nice containers but the printing is poor, it's ok from a distance but the technology

is there to do it much better.

I put the locking bars on the wrong way, they should be done like the one's in the last 2 pic's.

You may be able to get locking bars from Arran but make sure you get the right ones.

Pace yourself man, you have all year 

I think that just about covers it, but you missed the roofs. 

Beautiful piece of work, it should be in a museum. 

It's been a long build but it looks and sounds great.

Now take a break over Christmas and then start the next project.

I wonder seeing as these coaches proved very popular and are still in production, could the run be increased a little, just a though, right I'll get me coat,

There generally seems to be an under estimation with new models that sell out on pre order, so maybe  a production run should be

increased to give more people a chance to buy and for those new modellers coming along.

I love all the buildings, great work.

It must be near the end now.

Sadly RMweb has become virtually unusable recently with even more popup adds every single click, some cannot be dismissed or closed and obscure 1/3rd of the content area. I'm not paying £5/month for the privilege of generating content for a private enterprise, just to get rid of the adds and make it as useable as it used to be. Wonder what the human page hits are now compared to two years ago before the advertising blitz. Here on IRM and FaceBook groups are so much easier to use and browse.

I keep away from it, there are many other sites that don't have adds all over the screen.

Just vote with your feet and walk.

I don't think it is, I think it just picks up from the driving wheels rather than the driving wheels plus the pony truck, and sends the current back through the tender wheels.

Yip track is cleaned before every running session.

If the tender has pickup through the wheels it should get all the power it needs

over points. 

If the loco is all wheel pickup it should go over points ok.

Have you cleaned the track recently? It can help a lot.

Beautiful, great livery. 

What colour did you use for the light grey?
