A Nod To Brent - a friendly thread, filled with frivolity, cream teas and pasties. Longing for the happy days in the South Hams 1947.

Back to minimalist posts after some serious education.

 

Mind how you go.

Fresh Brixham fish at the George afterwards?

Not that time as I had a reservation booked in Bristol, but looking at the website I think I will give it a try when we are next in the area

My experiences are from 20 years ago Rich so don't blame me if it's all gone to pot since then!

I was going to mention "Two-thirds of B*gg*r Hall", but I won't.

Lobster pot?

 You missed the Hall bit out.

My favourite is Bestov Hall.

That was one broken at Barry then????????

How about 7930 "Kneausefolk Hall"? A long term Southall loco I believe.

[Captain Kernow]

Some of the letters seem a bit undernourished on that particular nameplate.

But what exactly did happen on that night?

Is that something to do with the demise of British Home Stores?

[Clearwater]

Is the real B*gg*r Hall just outside the Welsh village of Llareggub?

The courier has delivered something rather nice chaps.

Not withstanding the S word there's plenty of quality detail on these tanks. Factory fitted brake gear rods but vac pipes are separate as the leaflet mentions they may foul the couplings if fitted. A set of fire irons are also included.

I thought all talk of sausages was banned and that sensible, erudite model railway comments only were now the order of the day?

 

 

 

 

But it's still the best RTR 1361 available!

 

I wonder, though, could someone, some hypothetical person, remove said splashers and replace with flat footplating?

It's a lovely looking loco, Robin, to be sure. Are you going to brave the elements now that it's arrived?

 

Out of interest and despite having trawled part-way through the main KMRC 1361 thread, I can't establish exactly when the splasher issue was first raised. Was it sometime in 2016?

 

And now that they are there, what was the reason given for their inclusion on the model?

 

Anyone know/remember please?

The splashers were noticed only recently and they are present on the early cads when everyone missed their inclusion. I will try and squeeze a shoot in , weather permitting. If not, at the weekend.

That's interesting. I was looking at what seemed to be some early CADs from 2016 on the thread just now, and there is certainly one view, where there are no splashers present.

 

However, most of the rest of the views do show the splashers.

COR look at the rivets on that. 

[gwrrob]

Mike Stationmaster gets a mention in the blurb on the leaflet/ destructions. There is also a parts list.

I'm lead to understand there was an article in The Sheep Chronicles, Page 3 to be exact. I, of course didn't read it and had to avert my gaze, but only slightly !

Thats a sore point I believe Chris at Kernow is the only one that can tell you what went on unless Mike knows I lost interest in the model some years ago when I found out it had a coreless motor going into it.
