A Nod To Brent - a friendly thread, filled with frivolity, cream teas and pasties. Longing for the happy days in the South Hams 1947.

The cat is still there whether you own it or not.

 

Perhaps you have a wormhole in the baseboard?

 

Must look for MRJ was expecting it out yet.

Time Lords will have read it already; see Kenton's comments on this Edition.

Sorry to post again but I am now worried that ANTB is actually an alternative dimension layout and only exists when I'm drunk.

I'd be more worried about the wormhole in the baseboard than the cat that may(or may not) be there. Don't you think it needs treating before you have a major infestation?

Are you drunk at this time of the morning?

Have you seen what's been released.Very tempted despite their build reputation.I don't have the wagon bible either.

Have a look at one of the features in next week's radio times, it may have a calming influence, then again, it may not!

I've not built a lot of the Cambrian kits, what's the problem with them?

Some of them are a right pain, particularly the hopper wagons. Also a lot of the opens I have built, it was necessary to make new floors as they were deficient in one direction or the other.

Oh b****r, it's the SR 40 tonners I have to build...

I have built the Dogfish, Seacow, Sealion and Walrus. To fit some of the bits you require very good eyesight, dexterity and a steady hand.

I have found clairvoyance is a handy modelling skill to have when assembling some Cambrian kits using just the instructions provided.

And a large brandy.

 

To be fair I found the SR 40t hoppers to be some of the better kits.

I don't know Clair, is she a skilled modeller?

Apparently the three rhinos are wimps as they were brought back under control by the zoo manager clapping his hands.

 

I wonder if that would work on ANTB?

If it's the one I'm thinking of, she's a skilled model, if nothing else.

Chaps, this ballast discussion has my interest. Given that the DNS was under WR control until 1953 then SR until closure, what options do I have for a good short engineers ballast train?

Do the engineers mind being labelled short?

Shouldn't that be asked in prototype questions not a rhino thread Colin.I'd be interested if three to five hoppers and a toad might suffice for my needs.

Not sure what triple disharge ballast hoppers the GW had, as I don't have my copy of GW wagon books to hand. I think that Frogmore Confederacy might do a plough toad, I know that Jidenco did one.

One loco, one wagon.

 

Is that short enough ?

Very good with crystal balls apparently. ..

Some one mention a short engineer.......?

she must be the one I of was thinking of too.

That should work - this looks aesthetically pleasing - and I'm not even noticing that the Cat and Dogfishes and the Brake Van are all "wrong":
