cobbler Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 John was in issue 217, centre page pin up, they used a class 37 to preserve his modesty, very tasteful I thought George turned them down John used to get me copies from his "Europe" trips, Smiffs in Northampton stopped selling it, have every issue RC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sf315 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) Used a class 37 to preserve his modesty I'd of thought a class 03 would be plenty big enough. Edited April 9, 2017 by sf315 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby (John) Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 It's funny how it's the N Gauge modellers making fun of me, perhaps its because they are used to handling small things Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bigbee Line Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 They do say that certain car owners go large to compensate for a lack of size in other areas. Maybe the same for modellers?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sf315 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Ah the irrelevant post police have found us. To get it back on track. When I was speaking to George he was on about perhaps forming a sand train. Are you any further forward with it have you decided on suitable wagons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Woodcock Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Hello Still thinking about it Steve. The wagon I would use is a hopper kit available from Wizard models but it is a bit of a longer term project due to pressure of other projects; and of course caring for John.

Ben04uk Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 George, what is the formation for your two coach DMU replacement service? Is it an SK and a BSK? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Woodcock Posted May 3, 2017 Author Share Posted May 3, 2017 Hello The two Mk 1s are indeed a BSK and an SK. That is what the two in the TVP DVD appear to be. As for the next layout there are two in the planning stage, one being smaller is nearer to starting than the second. The first is another East Anglian layout circa 1965 which will use some of the stock from Fenchurch with a few additions. The second will be set in Northumberland in the mid/late 80s and like our Towcester layout is another 'what if' journey. That will not be about for a couple of years and will also depend on my health as indeed will the exhibiting of our current layouts. Thanks as usual for your interest.
