bgman Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 That's a very big coin someone has left on the track in the second pic. Maybe it was just a penny and as nothing happened for ages the penny just grew and grew.......Zzzzzzzzzzzz. I think I'll have some wine. Phart. I believe it was a chocolate orange ! Terry A.

brianusa Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I have followed this thread and while not used to all this tidy trackwork, wiring and planning have not come across any nubile maidens as there are in other favourites. Funny faces and comedy abound and as its Jenny's birthday, I felt sure today would be the day. I've got to get the nun image out of my mind!

RMweb Premium New Haven Neil Posted December 20, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 20, 2017 The second photo, I just wish people wouldn't do that. Park their cars in front of advertising hoardings, how are we modellers supposed to get poster that are contemporary with our modelling if they are partly obscured. It looks like it is an Avenger, so its probably broken down........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted December 21, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 21, 2017 Do you think I ought to purchase a Dapol Class 121 or 122 railcar? Assuming I've got enough half crowns slipped down the back of the sofa, that is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted December 21, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 21, 2017 is it a green one? It would be a green one, either with the speed whiskers or the small yellow end. Anyone got anything good to say about 'em? And what's all this about the Oxford Rail Dean Goods - are they any good? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted December 21, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 21, 2017 I am sorely tempted by the 121, green, small yellow panel. It looks lovely and would, I think, look rather jolly on Mutton. Dean in BR black looks nice as well. Saw both on Tuesday in the local model emporium.

Assuming I've got enough half crowns slipped down the back of the sofa, that is. The green bewhiskered GRCW unit is very nice except for the number, which is a) at the wrong end on one side and b) in the wrong typeface. is it a green one? Don't recall ever seeing a green half-crown. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted December 22, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 22, 2017 So is there anything seriously dimensionally inaccurate about the BR black Dean Goods that would have me hauled over the coals by the P4 Brigade, should I have the audacity to purchase one?

There are some serious inaccuracies surrounding the type of nail depicted securing the planks on the cab floor. Square head as opposed to round head.

timbowilts Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 There is an entire thread on RMWeb where an individual completely disects and rebuilds his Oxford Rail Dean Goods!!!

bigwordsmith Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Can someone remind me what the original topic was about over here? I'm sure this is turning into another version of SOSJ - same folks, same banter, but I've totally lost the plot as to what the original railway was about! What is a Dean Good anyway? Is it some form of minor clergy? Happy Christmas to you all ( Again!) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
