  1. A quick photo of my Steam railcar. I collected mine from Guildford yesterday. Really pleased. The very long wait was worth it! Bazza
  2. I remember visiting the first Warley Show at the NEC and have been most years since, often with a group of friends, and sometimes on my own. Amazing the club was able to organise such a major show and for such a long time. They deserve our thanks and also their right to an honourable retirement. Those involved will now have a lot more time for their own modelling! Something new might take its place but there are many other shows to attend, some quite new on the scene. In the meantime, thanks for all the good memories of Warley Shows. Bazza
  3. Don't forget the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch school trains. Fancy going to school on a miniature railway!
  4. Yes please to a 97XX condensing tank, very much part of the WR London Area scene. Admittedly geographically limited but I'm sure would sell as well some of the "oddball" releases we have seen recently. Bazza
  5. 1502 was the regular shunter at Didcot. Bazza
  6. I think you might mean the connection for the steam lance on the smoke box ring. Bazza
  7. The treads are fine. Only the sides of the tyres need painting. It's looking good. Bazza
  8. Great idea. I'm not in the market for these but surely they are just too perfect to be internal user wagons! Bazza
  9. That would be great. Although a GWS member, These tours can reach the parts not normally accessible. Bazza
  10. We were all offered a bottle of water and a pack of biscuits once off the train. I gave my biscuits away as I was hoping for my Standard Premier meal on Eurostar which I actually nearly didn't get.
  11. I have to add my thanks to Graham for his organising this trip, it was most enjoyable and we were all very relieved to scrape onto the last Eurostar of the day. After all we did not want to miss the Coronation! Couple of photos of the train evacuation site (a first for me too) and the view from the bendy bus. Bazza
  12. Hi Gilbert, That's a relief - was beginning to be concerned about you!
  13. Realise that I'm a little late, but a very big thank you from me for all that you have done for RMWeb, in fact for most of us you are RMWeb! Hopefully the only problems you get now are computer related and not people. Can't remember the last outbreak of virtual violence on here and for that we have to thank your wise leadership. Do you have any time left for your own modelling? With best wishes, Barry
  14. As far as I'm aware, these coaches were not particularly limited in dimensions because of through running onto the Metropolitan because that section had been built broad gauge. The A60 Met line stock was the widest rolling stock in the country because of the Met's generous loading gauge. However, I'm waiting for the main line toplights and still hope that Hornby will do a Collet BG, and anyone does a GWR restaurant car.
