pitbull1845 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Hi Leon, I'll be watching the conversion. I've thought about it many a time but knowing me I'd mess it up. Even if it is just a couple of windows! The photo of 711 is probably the Hamworthy working.. Used to enjoy seeing that one go through Poole. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 I will let you know how it goes mate, You have been quiet lately, everything good? I think you need to list all your traction, last time I looked you had a mass of 37's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to list all your traction, last time I looked you had a mass of 37's Hi, I've been quiet as I've been busy doing DIY at home and working so no time for the layout. I'm also going through that phase of "why do I play trains and shall I pack it in?" I suppose I could list all of my locos - I'll give you the link to Ebay! I've got about 10 37's on my current fleet. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanielB Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 No such thing as a silly amount of 37s! 10 seems like a perfectly reasonable number to me. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanielB Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 50 seems reasonable as well. Might as well get the whole fleet now, would be a shame not to. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

7APT7 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 My Mrs would cut off gentleman's components if I had 52 class 37's . She's annoyed I've got 6 ! Hi Mate... I had to get DIVORCED for me to keep my 15... so I understand you mate, for me... it was either have my ********chopped off or Divorce.... looking on the up side, Divorce did pave the way for more Loco's to be fair... lol and for... Neil Perhaps you can give us an idea of how you are still married and have so many class 37's... and have more on your list to get... I do remember you telling me you buy makeup brushes to use on your models.... No.... not that type of Models... lol Does your Mrs still think she's got loads of make up brushes then, I guess one brush for every Class 37 that you have... at what point does your Mrs have to many brushes, lets not even talk about the shoes and hand bags... or does a class 37 cost you a pair of shoes too and/or hand bag too...

hybridangel77 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Its funny how we all have to consult with the boss (the wife) when it comes to buying our trains and my wife always moans when i get a new toy and yet she never says nothing to me when she buys a new hand bag or a pair of shoes or spends over £100 on her hair.......and i wouldnt mind so much but she dont work so its my bloody money she is spending,lol. I just dont see why we have to justify buying a new loco and they dont, but i suppose i will let her off as she does look after my three young children,lol.

rob D2 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I don't consult her, it's my money and I earn it..... 52 37s, I hope you got that lot insured as a collection that must be inxs of £3k worth.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 Work has started on the 37/7 conversion. Need more filler and then a rub down before painting. The filler dried pretty much straight away which I was a bit worried about after reviews. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
