Jaz Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 It was my mum who was the zealot in our family. As a result my sister and I have no past, except in our heads. I came back from my first term at college to find my room had been cleaned out and my S/H 0 gauge Hornby electric LMS compound and later new Trix twin (but with only one 0-4-0 black LMS tank) all gone. Later, when I returned from working abroad, all my College and after portfolios had likewise all gone. My sister enjoys recalling how all my mum had really wanted was a litter of black Labradors. Not surprising my psychotherapist wife likes dining out on all this stuff :-( dh Kals mum did the same everything he ever had a child gone........ I have bought him all sorts to replace things he had or things he would have liked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ess1uk Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) 66702 has derailed! Have you got a recovery train or will you have to call the hand from above?

Jaz Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I can go get the crane...... if only I can find it!!!!!! 1173 I don't think it has had an outing since the old Goathland / Heartbeat was ripped out and updated. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 66702 has derailed! Have you got a recovery train or will you have to call the hand from above? Also that bloke next to the 56 is brave being in the 6 foot! And I take your point over the bloke......a train must cause some serious 'drag'. I have noticed when on the motorway that large lorries can cause 'drag' when they pass you or you pass them.....In fact I have had 3 incidents where the big boys have hit me!!! One let me out in to traffic and a couple of minutes later tail ended me!!!!! another pushed me off the road at a roundabout catching me with the middle where he front and back wheels were in lane but the body had crossed into my lane...it pushed me up against a metal rail....I raced after him......he did stop....surprisingly he had not marked my car....not even a scratch.....just shoved it up on the kerb........ I know there was 3 but never remember the other incident. anyway there must be a drag potential....I will move him to a safer spot.... This was Kals Christmas present from my dad 3911 he took it out of the box to put it on the layout for me to photograph and dropped a bit.......i am just about to go search for it....wish me luck!!!!!! The missing part is elusive at the moment as is not unusual with small pieces ;(. I daresay I will find it when one of us stands on it and crushes it!!!!!!!

ess1uk Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 It's not so much the drag, but if another train was to come down the other line he would be hit. Actually he should be in the cess anyway. It is "interesting" being stood in the cess when a 125 goes past at full line speed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 (edited) I usually see a 150 everyday, not the greatest looking things but looks like a nice model if you happen to have photograph i would be interested, but not if it is a lot of trouble. I was checking out your thread just today your work standard has improved immensely recently clearly having the opportunity to show at Warley resulted in you really focusing on the layout, superb effort. When you finish schooling and college/uni you might want to look around and use your work to see if you could move into do mockup for scenery for architects etc, checking out of course that it still has a reasonable standard of pay and a future considering that computer imaging has taken over a lot of the market.

hornbyandbf3fan Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/image/50981-dmus/ It's an old one and with a 153 as I havent transferred all my pics onto the laptop yet And thanks, Warley did focus me but I'll only be doing limited modelling until the summer due to exams; I've started revising now. I've never though about that line of work, might be worth looking in to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 lolcatbirthdayspanking.jpg Now we're even for that "Cuff Round The Ear"............... Happy Birthday Have fun! Sasquatch another animal story. A friend had to move to the big smoke and asked us to take in their young cat....so I took her down the vets to get her down.....and was a advised we were too late.... so we ended up with 5!!!!! Anyway the kittens were still young when one disappeared. I had two paper adverts with a picture, and a call out onto local radio. A woman with 4 children in the village contacted us.....if one child had not been frightened of the kitten i don't think we would have seen him again.....regardless we bought him home...put him down on the grass by the from door, his mum came bounding across rubbed both cheeks with hers (marking him I presume) then reared back and smacked him right round the chops......the caption in my opinion??? Where the 'ell have you been you dirty little stop out!!!!!!!! Wish i had it on video........ 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
