Andrew P Posted January 16, 2020 Author Share Posted January 16, 2020 Hi George, Good to hear from you on here mate, even though we speak most days, the work you did on the Shark was really good stuff considering the Kit. As for an un cluttered room, well I seem to be making things even worse with my 3 Layouts in there now. There was still room for 5 Bodies in there the other night though. 16 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So here's 20142 at the Gates, ready to run back up the Yard, as the Gates are now out of use with the Tracks beyond lifted.

Don't know mate, I saw it parked down the Road with the keys in the ignition and thought to myself, that looks a nice un. In truth, I was given it by a mate who collects Lorries and Busses and he didn't want it any more, so it ended up on SMS. It really is to old for my period, as I was running Steam at the time, and I'd forgotten it was still there until I saw the pic this morning. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JelleJan Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 (edited) Yes, I now the Bedford OB bus is 1:50, I checked that by comparing the size of the model with the size of a real one. This lorry is also smaller than 1:43, some say 1:50, others (like Corgi/Vanguards itself) even say 1:64. I haven't been able to check the scale myself.

Lazy Joe was off shift and leaning on a Bar somewhere I expect. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
