RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted November 27, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 27, 2011 I'm waiting for my Kernow one and now I'm told that Ultrascale are not going to do a 'drop in' EM conversion set. Boo! I'm also really sorry to let you all know that these little boxes were actually quite good fun around Devon in the early 60s. OK so they might have been a 'bit weak' but they did a good job piloting stuff up the banks and wobbling around the branches with some old wagons. They were of course 'dumped' on the SR when the 'other lot' took over the area previously adorned with M7s, T9s and the like; sad! I also think they were quaint due to the spoked wheels. Apart from that they were c**p, but I still quite like the beautiful design and elegant lines of the bodywork but I'm short sighted.

Indomitable026 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Keen to provide 'the team' with all the modern facilties - and to try and stop them standing on my tool boxes - for Warley I invested in a couple of platforms. One each - a kind of early Christmas present if you like. I think they were well recieved bar the odd comment; -They are too high, theres snow at the top, can it be fitted with a lift and a hand rail? -Would have prefered a bullied pacific for Christmas - thats what I though I was getting? etc etc. So I took it they were pleased. However there was a problem, within a couple of hours 'we' had managed to bend them both!! And theres a mystery... Who did it? Perhaps the answer is; who ate all the pies?

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted November 27, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 27, 2011 I think an old fashioned 'soap box' is what you need. It could then also be used to go on about hydraulic mechanisms etc. P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indomitable026 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) To be fair only one is the new Dapol one the other is a rather old(8yrs) Silver Fox one The comparison will be interesting between the two. Having looked at Chris's last weekend - before it was accidently dropped on the floor - it looked a nice model.

Indomitable026 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 TPO's? Remember them? The plan is to model the Penzance TPO, which I believe, ran back up to St Blazey due to a lack of space at Long Rock. Should add a splash of colour..... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
