[In and Out of the Tunnel]

Wow ... samehere, just stumbled across this via the blog feed, very very Welsh atmosphere, and 7mm to boot, what's not too like 

 

Now following with much interest, and I may be plagiarising some parts of this for a small project which I am about to re-kindle from the depths of storage.

 

Best regards

Craig.

[Two fingers to the lot of you !]

Ouch !!! You have my sympathies, I to have done the same .... it just proves with the numbers who have done the same .... as a species we aren’t as clever as we like to think ;-)

[O Gauge - Buffer Lock]

Hello Bill, here is a picture of Rod Morgan's remedy for the buffer locking on his 63.5 ft chassis length DMU's, same as a MK1 coach, this shows the brass wire whilst still brass colour, but they have since been painted black to become inconspicuous when the models are coupled together.

 

Hope Rod's idea helps you out

 

Happy modelling

Craig.
