      They may have been on my old laptop, so could be gone now. I'll have a look later.

  2. Hello Ruston,

    I have just got into model railways again after a break of about 40 years! 

    I like vintage stuff, so I purchased my first loco, an old Triang 0-4-0 "Nellie" having seen your little 0-4-2  "Pugbash" on this website, which I found to be most impressive. I would like to do my best at emulating your build, and was wondering if you could tell me where you go the wheels for your loco,and the cranks.  I was thinking of buying some cranks from Markits. 

    What size wheels did you use?

    Many thanks,

    TJ

      The wheels were from Alan Gibson but I don't remember what size they were and I do not have the loco now.

      Every day's great here in Yorkshire. You have to feel sorry for all of them as hasn't been born or lived here in God's own county.

  5. The long summer must have got to some folks. There seems to be a rash of people removing their posts/photos just because someone has posetd a contradictory comment.

      To the above poster - if you had bothered to atcually get involved, instead of posting snide comments on people's statuses, you would know that it is an Industrial Modelling AND prototype sub-forum.

      I have. I didn't pay them and they went away - eventually. They're not the law, they're just a bunch of chancers.

      Sell the Landy, buy the kit and with the change you can buy a proper Landy ;-)
