    Hi thanks for the tip. I have some bearings from parkside Dundas and did wonder if it would wear less if I added them. Im going to start an EM layout soon, just a small shunting layout. Then I can test RTR wheels compared to, say: Romford or similar. Using the same technique, I have done another OBA and a VGA van. Class 66 will be next too, but using Ultrascale conversion pack. Jack

    Having a stab at EM 18.2mm. Ive converted a Bachmann OBA. With those awful bogie/single axle arrangements. Chopped off the centre, glued the axle boxes below the leaf springs and added the wheels once they were pulled out, using a pair of pliers. As shown below... Once the glue had dried, they can be tested. Also, this process lowers the 'ride height' as they are a little high. Whilst the wheels are removed they can be weathered. Jack

    Alex, we do as Cornwall is so small especially in the world of model railways. Sounds good, mark told me about Diddington so I had to have a look. Glad I did now as its lovely. What size terminal were you thinking? J15? sounds like something over the Tamar...! Haha Glad you had a look at St.Agnes. All the best Jack

To be honest its my other half's hobby but some of the colour variants are stunning. Haha yep! The day olds would be tiny wouldn't they. Cheers Jack

    Hi Alex. Mark mentioned your layout so I had to come over and have a look! Its Ansum! Lovely use of static grass and great scenics. As others have said, very impressive. Perticulary the bridge photo and the DMU crossing over it. All the best Jack

    As Andy P has said before. Just had to press 'like' those pictures are pure gold. Really given me a push and a nudge to get knuckled down on my own layout. So, Les keep up the good work and I can't wait for the next installation of photos All the best Jack

    Andy. Quick question, where did you get the "Rmweb operator" sign from seen in the photo above? Or is it a home brew? Looks smart Jack
  22. Jack00
    Will, mate what part of Cornwall? I know you've told me before but I have a memory like a gold fish! ? Jack

    Its true. Always nice to see them changing as you say it adds to the prototypical operation. Great stuff. Im tempted to get the new Dapol GWR round post semaphores. Jack

    Bill, I really like photo #4 in post 317. The signals are lovely addition to the layout. I must have missed them after looking at the barriers. Cheers Jack
