Did the CONDOR operate with a Brake Van or had these been discontinued.

Thank you .

Having had an 00 gauge layout some years ago which has been sold I am now planning an n gauge layout.I still have the controllers from the 00 layout and am wondering if these will be suitable to operate the n gauge. The controllers are the following, H&M Clipper and OnTrack MPC 3/2. I have heard in the past that n gauge require a different controller to 00, any advice would be welcome.

Thanks for your reply’s.

Would someone be good enough to give me the overall length of the Farish Blue Pullman set. Having recently sold my 00 set I am looking at buying an N gauge set for a display cabinet.

I’m in the process of selling my model railway after many years which was a difficult decision to make. My plan is to keep several locomotives including the Blue Pullman set and whilst I have several Picture Pride cabinets for smaller items I would like to find a suitable one that will accommodate the BP.

Thanks Paul and everyone else,yes I have three PP cabinets already which display 1/76 scale buses so I think these may be the people to contact again.

I am looking for a wall mounted display cabinet for my 6 car set,does anyone know of a manufacture for such. I have checked on Picture Pride’s site but they don’t appear to have an off the shelf one although I know they make to order. Cabinet only needs to be large enough for this unit. Thanks in advance for any information.

If this post is not allowed on here then I fully understand if it is removed. I have both 20189 and 20227 that I will be listing on eBay during October,both have only been run for no more than 30 minutes and have been displayed in a case,the reason for selling is to complete a model bus collection of some rare and collectable London models.

Great new Dave,thanks for the update.

Do we have a possible release date for this model yet?

I'm a little confused with these models,have some already appeared for sale.I know there is one of each on display at the LTM shop.If anyone has obtained one or both of these could you please confirm. Thanks.

I see that the Mac Fisheries version is now available from Harburn Hobbies,still on the same conflat as the Birds Eye one. Apologies if this has already been mentioned on another thread.

I have replaced the wheels today with the ones with tyres on and what a difference,I was a little concerned that over time the motor's might bun out as the 4 car set seemed to struggle especially on curves and a very slight incline. If anyone is interested in doing the same and you are not too sure what to do have a look at Budgie's post 446 above,and follow that,it took me about 5 mins to change both cars,no need to dismantle the whole unit as recommended by Bachmann when `I spoke to their technical dept.

Im looking at changing the wheel sets to the ones with the tyres,was it easy to do,i have never done anything like this before.
