durham light infantry Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 Thursday's late night opening has been cancelled due to the weather. It has snowed all weekend, and is currently laying on top of the 9" already down!!! The immediate forecast is not promising. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penrhos1920 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Will you have any Hawksworth full brakes with you at the Darlington show? I can't believe it. I've been to 3 shows recently and not a single Hawksworth coach. Wrong kind of snow could have been an excuse at Wakefield, but not the previous shows.

I am hoping to have some by the weekend, if not it will be shortly afterwards. If anybody is interested after the recent success of re-numbered L1's, I am hoping to get some Hawksworth BG's reliveried in Blue. Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkins77 Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Hi Mike I know it's been a long time since I've been in. Hopefully that will change soon though seeing as my new better weather project has taken a back seat I can now concentrate back on doing the layout. Did the dummy Dapol released 66250 come in? I'll be in over the next week or so to give you the latest update regarding my condition and also a chance for you to attack my wallet again lol.

Bouncy Bouncy Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 I didn't realise there was now a model shop in Darlington again! The one opposite Bank Top station seemed to shut without any warning! I may have to pop in at some point for a visit. The website shows a decent selection of stock avaliable, and it's not that far from Yarm! Just off North Road opposite B&Q isn't it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Hat Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Yes the new shop is opposite B+Q in Darlington, near North Road. The shop has a wide selection of stock in it, and also has knowledgeable staff that care for the hobby and interest, so know what you expect and what youd like. Nothing but a satisfied customer here. Will be getting a Network Rail 31 and NMT off them given the list thats out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
