[Window and grill frames]

Interior would be a big plus but as far is it is already, I'm becoming more and more impressed with every post. Any idea on the Livery?

[25 body rework]

This is just simply impressive!!!!

[‘Esso’ Tanker Train - The Tanks]

I have found that (especially without brass bearings) the running qualities are livable yet you do have the issue of wobbly wagons and the occasional derailment (though most of mine was down to a bad desicion with couplings). I still have occasional issues with them but they seem to be okay now, the barrier wagons as well!

 

I'm told that the bearing (like with most things) may remedy the situation but you would know more than me!

[‘Esso’ Tanker Train - The Tanks]

was that the book about improving 4mm scale wagons cos if it is...I ranted about it then I actually ended up using it as a source of inspiration!!! (gah!!!) apologies to the author of that book, it was really good. I was just really inpatient!!!

 

Thank you though hopefully when they're painted and weathered they're look a whole lot better!

[‘Esso’ Tanker Train - The Tanks]

Why thank you , I know how you feel, I built a Parkside Bolster wagon blind the other night because the instructions were blooming useless!

 

I must also point out that the main elements of the wagons (the chassis, nameplates, barrel & ladders/walkway) arn't glued on yet whilst I'm waiting to paint them. Everything I have used I will list out when all of the articles are complete!!! which may take some time!!!

Hi there

 

Thanks I actually have been keeping a loose eye on your articles actually (I should leave more flattering comments on your posts though) and I'm quite impressed with what I've seen, being a former N gauge guy myself.

 

It is a really shame that no one has bothered to model these tanks in 2mm scale, I know the layout that inspired me, Basingstoke, (oddly enough 2mm scale) had to make do with what I believe to be Peco 14t and the long wheel base tanks.

[Frames for the 2-8-2 cut]

I can't wait to see the finished product after the beaut of a BR std 8 you made.

 

How dio you mean, "interesting"?

[Trying to create the ultimate class 92.]

Agreed... please keep us updated with blogs and photos

[Hornby 2721 class detailing - continued]

Whoa, regardless of any inconsistencies (I'm not a totaly rivet counter) that is seriously nice model you've created. I'm especially impressed with the brake rodding

[Deltic Prototypes - Lima Finished]

Yeah that is true, I heard the Lima Deltic was a little under scale at HO!!!

 

Thanks for the tip

[Deltic Prototypes - Lima Finished]

These are some great articles especially since I'm planning to build a DP1 deltic in the near future using a Lima chassia and Dapol body.

 

Just I'm wondering if you modified the bogies at all on this model, they look like the Lima ones?

[Weathered Wagons - Experiments]

Some amazing weathering there Adam
