Hi All, Does anyone know what is happening with modelmasters ? A year goo I placed an order for some decals, I am still waiting, I also ordered a kit of a “Scot” 2 years ago again still waiting all avenues of communication have drawn. a blank. I did once get hold of Jim and was told about computer problems, and not being unable to get in the warehouse and a sound promises to send the decals off. I have just been on the website again but the only way to pay is by back and I am unwilling to send any. more money without a guarantee of getting my money back. Any information would be welcome as I hope what was an excellent company demise. Ian H

Thanks All, I managed to get a D1 chassis from Ian Maccormac at EE models, so problem solved. So thanks again all, Ian H

Hi All, I am building a pair of L.B.&S.C.R. coaches in 4mm but have had no luck in sourcing any transfers. I have contacted Ian Maccormac but he does not have any. Ideas for anywhere I can obtain some would be most welcome as I have tried all I can think of, the nearest that I got was some goods transfers from Fox. Thanks All Ian H.

I have recently become the proud owner of an ex GEM Stroudley 0-4-2 B1 kit (oo Scale) but have drawn an absolute blank as to obtaining chassis or main frames for both loco and tender. Any help and (or) directions as to where I might get them would be greatly appreciated . Many Thanks, Ian H

Found out they are part of an accessory pack £3.99 from Hornby Ian H

Thanks for the replies folk I'll keep trying Ian H

Hi Folks, Does any one have any ideas as to where or how to obtain a loco fitted snow plough in 00 scale, like the one fitted to the Hornby j36 / I have tried all the usual suspects, peters spares etc and shapeways with no luck and am going cross-eyed looking at a computer screen. Thanks in advance, Ian H

Hi People, Found an answer to the problem of the net on the Isinglass T.P.O. Got some 2mm netting used by our fellow marine modelers for fishing nets. Will post my efforts when I get my decals from Model Master. Ian H

Thanks for the ideas people, certainly given me something to think about Thanks Again, Ian H

I am shortly about to start to build an Isinglas L.N.E.R sorting coach in "00" but an trying to think of a solution as to what to use as a net for the frame. Any ideas would be most welcome, I had thought about a "Hairnet" but think the mesh will be too big. Thanks Guys Ian H

Thanks for the tips folks, I do have a decoder tester fitted with a motor and all work well and use the old tried and tested , red and black to the track, orange and grey the other way. I'll Keep looking and trying. Thanks Again, Ian H

Any ideas please, I have just finished a 4-4-0 chassis and run it in on DC, Works like a dream, But fit a decoder to it NOTHING !!! decoder is wired correctly joints soldered good correct address put in (3) I have tried 3 decoders always the same result, the motor is a mashima 1220. So any Ideas folks would be most welcome. Thanks (in advance) Ian H

I just wondered what is the best way to secure motor and gear box into a kit built loco, so as to stop it either flying to near vertical or trying to bury itself between the frames. This little nugget of info seems to be missing from the instructions. Any advice would be most welcome. Stay Safe Folks, Ian H

Thanks Ray I had never thought of that I will certainly explore that idea. Thanks again Ian H

I am building a small Tram layout but would like to add an indication of conduit as used in the London system does anyone know of a way of representing it please. All ideas welcome. Thanks in advance, Stay Safe All, Ian H
