  1. being a great long distance fan of the NSR i find this really interesting stuff .Would it be possible to obtain models of these from you at a future date ?? Who has the NSR break van kit at the moment BTW ?? Thanks martin
  2. Simon is that rope Light or a flat bottom type ?? what is it called so that i can look for some :-) ?? Thanks martin
  3. Today i received my two Hornby class 31's back . two new chassis two new bodies and ev en returned the old ones in the box .WELL DONE Hornby thank you . Martin
  4. Morning all ,on this side of the pond it is 3:50 am and i have two cats a wife snoring happily away so i had to get up to find some quiet :-) So here i am sit at the screen chatting to the wide awake world out there , hope you all have a great day i will be napping soon methinks !!!
  5. This little fellow was intently watching me on RMWEB , maybe he was a train buff who knows ?? He has been back many times and even comes up on the deck to scrounge for tid bits :-) Martin
  6. Good grief Charlie brown this must be my week of great karma , not only did I get my Blue Pullman in record time but i got an email from Hornby telling me that the replacement chassis were in and i will be getting mine back in a week or so ........... I think i am going to go by a lottery ticket , just in case :-)
  7. If you get an answer from Hornby consider yourself fortunate ???? ////'/
  8. Thanks Andy , being so far away from it all leaves one with a feeling of helpless especially when you never get any replies to emails !!
  9. Well guys , just sent yet another email to Hornby to try to find the disposition of my locos and when if ever i will see them again . Anybody willing to take odds on WHEN , IF or What the reply will be if i even get one ??? :-) Martin
  10. Hornby did not acknowledge that a problem existed for a long time either !! I agree that they are saying that they will resolve the problem , question is WHEN ??? Especially for us older blokes that are not in the best of health ?? :-) Martin
  11. I wish you luck with this lot bro , as for China , well I can see major probs coming right soon . i did hear that Bachmann is possibly moving some work to eastern Europe , may be just a rumor but it makes sesne to me shorter shipping for one !! martin
  12. Then there is yet hope for us all :-) Martin
  13. Excellent thread i cannot wait to see the compete model all done up :-)
  14. Seems it has been going of a couple of years .The first post on the subject is August 2011 and still not resolved , I am for one , totally disgusted with the whole thing . A company like Heljan can fix its mistakes within a few months , Hornby .............. not so it seems ??
  15. After a years worth of emails i finally sent them back to Margate in June of this year as i was told by Hornby that the spares were due in August . Now , of course they have been moved , once again , to November !! I( for one am getting very tired of it all !! martin
  16. I whole heartedly agree with you on this point they have two of mine at my expense and i am out quite bit of money , which as a retired person on a fixed income , is rather aggravating to put it mildly !!!I cannot get a decent reply from them just the usual crap about next month !! I have asked them what my options are but so far I have had no reply whatsoever , great for business eh ??? martin
  17. Maybe if a person was to stroll along said track with a hole in his pocket , things tend to fall out unnoticed ???
  18. Been talking to Ian on Face book earlier today once again i send my heartfelt condolences mate .grieve all you need to buddy it is natures way of helping us to heal .My thoughts are with you buddy as always . Martin
  19. Same old same old then , another 2-4 weeks that will make it possibly November before they may , possibly , could maybe have the chassis .It has been a few YEARS , do the folks at Hornby really think we the consumers are that dense ????
  20. Still waiting on a reply from margate i emailed in two weeks ago ............ talk about crap way to run a business !!!
  21. I cannot even get a real reply from Hornby , just the standard auto response any more . What a way to run a business !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  22. You mean to say that you ACTUALLY got yours replaced ??? What did you use as leverage inquiring minds need to know :-) Martin
