MrWolf Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Converting one of those £5 Chinese made Christmas tree train sets to P4 and DCC might be a challenge. Cue someone providing a link to a thread where it's been done.... 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone can overthink things I can I’ve certainly been doing more thinking than modelling of late, can’t seem to get motivated at moment….but I’m sure that will pass 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I think you'd better agree a completion date as well - sometime June 2023 I'd go for. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than a walk on part to assist in the setting up of tree, I am spared the decoration of same said tree. It appears that I lack the necessary 'eye' to ensure the aesthetic appeal is suitably catered for. Now if it needed covering in sooty stuff and rust then I might be okay but as long as there's something train related beneath it from the red faced, bearded, chubby chap in red pyjamas and wellies on a certain morning then I'm content to let things be.

RMweb Gold lezz01 Posted November 28, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 28, 2021 Some how the job of "Christmas tree" has become mine in our house. It seems that I have the desired artistic eye for it. I'm not sure how that happened but as long as it keeps her ladyship happy that's all that matters I guess.

When it comes to decorating the tree I stay out of the way, not because I’m a grinch but because I tend to get in the way and interfere with Sarah’s ‘vision’ of how it should look. She does a wonderful job too, left to me it would be symmetrically decorated with evenly spaced baubles in colour order 2 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
