  1. As someone who regularly reads the excellent advice this forum provides I thought I'd give some feedback on the brake fluid for removing paint. I used for dot 4 to strip a Bachmann class 20 and it worked a treat. I put it in for a few hours and scrubbed with a good bristle toothbrush to remove any excess and washed with hot water and fairy liquid after.

    Thanks. Probably a stupid question but do you file the profile shape of the platform or do you build the platform before you lay the track?

    What is the platform surface made from?
  4. The pictures look great - hats off to you guys for developing things in the background. Is it too early to suggest a rough RRP?
  5. Hello, Seems to be a short term coal flow from killoch to port talbot kicking off next week. Does anyone have any knowledge if this will last long? I assume this is for the steel works?
  6. The weathering is fantastic on these. Do you have images of any rolling stock?
  7. Great to see an update. Is construction of the boards likely to happen soon?
  8. I've just went through this whole thread... absolutely great layout and progress. Is this a home or club layout? I can't get over the propelling 16t coal train video. Are all the wagons three links?
  9. Absolutely class. Excellent weathering, really captured the look of the time. Are you a scale coupling man? The three links are pains but look so much better than a big hook
  10. Any pictures of the loco fleet? Every now and again I see a layout that grabs my attention...you got it lol
  11. Great stuff. Really look forward to seeing this one develop....please keep us posted with your progress
  12. BR blue mid 70s layout, excellent. Do you have a list of all stock you plan to run? I do like a roster, the loco plans are great
  13. They looks rather good, although, I wonder how the RRP will sit with people. The price for one is not far of twice the price of accurascale or cavalex set of wagons which have a lot of details. I was hoping that because the base mold was "flat", the price might have reflected this. I'm not nocking the model at all, just providing some feedback from a modellers perspective. Of course, people will disagree but that's okay, everyone has an opinion
  14. Yeah yeah, the wagons are great..but when are we going to see the locos
  15. Hello, I bought a tub of modelstrip to remove a bodged repaint. I opened the tub to find it dry so added a little water to make it soft again. I smeared the stuff over the loco body and left fir 24hrs. It doesn't appear to have done anything at all. Would anyone be able to provide any guidance? Ideally, as I've paid for it I'd like to use it up. Should it be left longer to soak on? Thanks
  16. I know this probably isn't the correct place to post but thanks everyone for notifying about all these bargains. I've got some great stuff in the past few weeks thanks to people posting.
  17. Hello all, Hope everyone is staying safe. Can anyone point me towards 1970s commercial vehicles like transit vans, flatbeds etc oo gauge? Most I've seen appear to be either 60s or 80s! Thanks
  18. Excellent stuff How did you make the window frames?
  19. Hi all, Hope everyone is staying safe just now! Would some of the scratch builders on this forum advise how high in mm a standard door would be for a typical building, say a mess office within a yard, oo scale? My buildings looks overscale, if you could also advise what is "typical" heights/widths of windows that would be appreciated cheers
  20. Bump.... Would anyone have a close up of how you connect the gates to the fence? I'm at a loss, probably obvious but the instructions are not the clearest
  21. I suppose the comment in this post is like the whole forum, if you don't like something, don't buy it. Models are the same, every year new items appear and people question them, if you don't like/need/want, don't buy. Traction is a great magazine in my opinion, keep up the good work Steve
  22. Looks great. Who supplied the shed? Fully insulated etc?
