    The new RMWeb formatting is a struggle on my mobile, I have to say.

      Not really sure how to react to that to be honest.... their feedback is not much help to me.  Let me clarify - I would have previously have used the "full view" on my mobile as I'd rather have the same navigation as on PC. I don't know if this option exists for the new format, but if it does I haven't found it yet.

    I can remember there used to be manufacturer announcements this time fo year. Does that still happen?

    Can anyone recommend a way to drill out the lifting eyes on a Hornby Sentinel? I assume a dremel type drill is the way to go?

      I used a pin vice for mine. Much easier to control, the metal is fairly soft too

      If it's ain't broke - don't fix it. Unless there's money to be made...

      Tynemouth, the 14'' version - but I'm afraid I had to have it at that price!

      I use exactoscale hooks on wagons, with smiths links. Locos have larger Smiths hooks.

      There's Modelzone... but I wouldn't describe it as "good"
