Current model finally found some time, after building an house extension during the last year.

Video attempted on my small digital Canon it refuses to load NTSC and PAL files (only options on the camera  ) , on my Canon SLR with the smallest file setting even with a 5 second long file, it refuses to load saying its over 10mb in size.

 

Any suggestions on loading Videos on here please ?

I suppose you could put it on YouTube or some other site & link it here.

As already posted above by Tony and Dave.  Sorry, I've never actually posted a video on RMweb.

A overdue update, on a few builds of this year.

Thompson Coaches based on the old Bachmann version.

Comet sides on this Composite. Please note I had other old Comet etched Sides, on testing against the latest Bachmann Thompson's ,the sides are about 1mm too low. Not a lot but would be a pain to correct. Mine were therefore sold on.

Looking for details for the Lettering layout on this Cattle wagon please.

 

Old Model Wagon Co castings only kit, of a Great North of Scotland Cattle Wagon , instructions were minimal in the bag. Tatlow has two poor photos of this one , you are unable to see the lettering in either photo.

Can't help, sorry, Mick. All I can suggest is there might be a photo in the GNoSR Album (Ian Allan) but I won't be reunited with mine until Xmas. Otherwise, maybe contact the GNoSR Association. According to the thread below, the man to ask (in 2012 at least) was a Des Byrne. Apparently the GNoSRA produced a book on modelling the line. Another option might be to drop Nick Holliday (the third poster here) a PM - he seems knowledgeable (and seems to have the book):

Some nice work here.

Lovely work as always Mick. What did you use for those pesky chains? I need to detail my pair

Cant speak for Mick, but I used the smallest chain Ambis do (40 lpi?) for mine with their container shackle on the end.

 

To tighten them I use a fine copper loop to attach the chain to, which you can then bend over to pull the chain taut.  Once it's blackened it's all but invisible.
