Did you teach Paul from Foster Street fame on here how to weather locomotives as his weathered LMS stock seems to share the same approach as you, but his models are in N gauge???

Any more progress on your B1?

That B1 is certainly making me think about modelling in N scale, I have seen the RTR versions, but yours has something I can't quite put my finger on which makes it more appealing to me, you will have to keep the update coming on this one, especially when you start to line the loco

You need more locomotives, especially off the green persuation

How have you manage to get the lining that fine, it must be incredibly thin? Considering you claim not to have much time to model, you are certainly producing some fantastic results

Good to see a LNER prototype working its way through your workshops, you have a rate of production that would rival the Big Four

Its beginning to look good, I must admit I like following your progress along with that of Paul from Foster Street fame as you both seem to produce brilliant locomotives from sources most of us ignore

Would you consider taking commissions? I'm sure I am not the only one thinking this but your Locomotives and weathered stock are fantastic, I'm sure I can be the only one who thinks this?

Which exhibitions have you got invites for or can you not tell us? The other thing, is how can you be thinking of replacing Foster Street, most of us can only dream of owning a layout like yours?

I know I should not be asking this as a NE fan, but is the Flying Scotsman actually the real Flying Scotsman anymore? How much of the actual LNER constructed locomotive can there actually be left? Even I have had a couple of hips, a knee and a disc replaced

What layouts are you trying to book? Any from here?

Brilliant its good to see work horses modelled rather than just "pretty" passenger locomotives

Paul Good god how many years have you ben collecting to get that many locomotives? I'm jealous, the Domestic Overlord must be very very understanding, I'm even more jealous.

Paul Are you sure I cannot change your mind? You seem to be able to capture the look of a working locomotive which is something I'm looking for, as for wrecking stock if you look at some of the items I have built you would think they were wrecked from the start. Malc

I must admit, since my return to the hobby after a long absence I still find the state of RTR stock to be amazing, especially for the money they are being sold for. Maybe we kit builders are a dying breed......
