You're making me cry now. I apologise I thought it was funny. I feel I'm fairly well read on the ECW and I feel the funny bits are the bits best brought up in company, otherwise we're back to being bitter about stuff we can't control...

Tch tch "About being spotted"...

I think this was my fault. I ordered a o-gauge rolling road yesterday... I can't bend down to the floor at the moment and it seemed a good idea to buy one to actually run the o gauge shunters this website keeps making me buy...

I think I'll stop now. This thread can only end up too political.

Oh yes... Let's all rush off to Jerusalem to fight a war... How's that going for you?

I'll never forgive Cromwell for abolishing Christmas! Image me that, no time of the year to buy people Train Sets!

It may be worth proactively contacting Hornby customer support and asking if you've been charged four sets of P&P :)

I might have misheard, I was only half listening, but I'm sure that the article on the BBC this morning suggested that we could DCC control our cats? I may have misheard.

You've got to imagine that, as you say, having OO CADs helps as a decent starting point for the TT CADs, the corollary is that having TT CADs would mean that they have a decent starting point for the O CADs and so a step up on creating a new/better OO model. Admittedly were it me I'd not bother with the Class 66 as there are one or two other reasonably-nice OO models already in existence with other suppliers... But you'd think they'd contemplate saving development time by ensuring that any effort spent on One Scale could be passed over to the Other Scale as a "here's one we prepared earlier". You then think how important Hornby think the Class 66 is - they are willing to create a TT-only-use CAD for it.

Careful, Gandhi was one of those stretcher bearers...

Yes please.

A-hole in one!

I rather like the 2969s narrow gauge modeller who said "and the Double Fairly is scratch built, no one's ever going to make an R-T-R one!"

Well, if you have Any hm7000 decoder you could load the profile up to test it, but I don't think there's another way . It's not necessarily the way you'd think of doing it because most other sound decoders need done more Infrastructure to do that...

Bu66er...

However they do sell direct to SME / I&C customers through what was "Haven" power, but it's s now branded Drax.

"One two three four!" "Change hands," "Five six seven eight!" "Change hands," "All you need's the rhythm and the wrist control," "And you can do the......" Some things just stick in your mind.

Just when we'd all got round to deleting the bookmark...

I remember 'O' level Computer Studies. One boy copied another boy's Project verbatim including a (c) notice the original author included... This is on that level of stupidity.

I'm going to horrify everyone and slap the word "southern" on the tank-side in "sunshine" and the pick a random number to go on the side of the cab...

I hate you(*). I'm going to have to lay out my o gauge track now... (*) well, not really (**) (**) maybe i should blame Rails (***) (***) or maybe my lack of impulse control

I blame George Harrison.

Oh well. One (I) is a Subject, one (Me) is an Object, if only we taught the language with a little rigor one would never make a mistake. I also mourn the lack of "whom" in modern usage... At least Microsoft Word Style Checker has reintroduced the use of the semi-colon. Me, I never confuse the two.

Yeah, but you've got to face it, it's a *very* common name..

As *we* well know, it's not where it's made, it's the level of QA that matters..
