  1. Visited a newly opened hobby shop today - while browsing the teeny railway section, a young clerk remarked: "you actually like trains? Don't you find them boring?"

      You should have asked him if he found being a clerk boring.

      Its a sad and sorry tale to be sure!

      Ask him/her what their hobby is....

  2. I don't want to head in to work - I want to browse RMweb and have a snooze!

  3. A budget O gauge gronk? Dapol, stop toying with my imaginary wallet! Not to mention Hatton's minus VAT comes out to a very sweet £140!!!

  4. Made some quick paper mockups of a Wisbech tram in 2mm and 7mm scales -- fun stuff!

  5. You know you're hamhanded when you've got more scars from modelling than you have actual models to show for!

  6. A moment of silence for Alan Pegler and his family - to him we are graciously indebted. ):

  7. is pondering the freelance style of modeling ala John Ahern's MVR at Pendon..

      Recent entries by "Snitzl" in the blogs may help with inspiration.

      I've been thinking the same thing for years. Lack the discipline to do it though.

  8. Just ordered my first ever RTR loco! I'm excited - but amazed at how quickly £90/$140 went!

      Surprisingly not, Matt! A Dapol 121 in BR Green with speed whiskers, much to my delight. :D

      A good choice!

  9. So I'm RMweb user #13333 - sign of luck or bad omen? You decide!

      I think it's buck and lad omen.

  10. Looks like my American "hand egg" team's season ends here! Lungs are coarse from shouting. Back to RMweb then!

  11. I believe it was mentioned earlier that 2012 would see a 'conversion' package of sorts that, presumably with the removal of the old non-NEM socket, would fit non-NEM stock.
  12. Did Dapol's 121 sell like hotcakes or was it merely a short production run? Green with whiskers are nowhere to be found!

  13. A round of e-applause for Jim and Andy for working so vigilantly over the holidays to fix our little home away from home!

  14. How I'd love to leave the armchair stage of this hobby - but that dictates getting a higher paying job. Acquiring the latter requires further education - which requires even more! What a world.

      Not really....just go for something small and simple :)

  15. Wrecked my leg at work today - I'll be hobbling a while, but I've finally a legit excuse to while away my hours on RMweb..
