Two more Matchbox coaches converted to 009 tonight. Not much, but it keeps things ticking over...
-
Was reading recently that former Government ministers have the right to buy a red dispatch box for their own use after leaving office. Given that there must have been some Government ministers over the years who were model railway enthusiasts, I wonder if there's a dispatch box with a layout built inside it!

Why is that train manager never on any of the trains I catch?
-
Has just spotted a Ratio yard crane an hour into "Live and Let Die"!
-
Thought I'd try Flickr again after Photobucket inposed a free storage limit and Flickr increased theirs. Forgot what an awful site it is :-(
-
In an interesting twist on the Portillo continuity gaffes, have just looked at the photos I took of the Boys' Brigade trip on the Prospect Park Railway. Same train in both pictures but in the space of half a lap the Boys have changed order on the carriage!
-
Has spent an enjoyable hour driving Microsoft Train Simulator and watching the red lights on my CBUS module go on and off in relation to the train speed. All I need to do now is to build a controller and calibrate it...
-
is one step closer to his goal of being able to drive a train on his layout via the Microsoft Train Simulator! :-)
-
"Lost" signalbox/fiddle yard control and train-sim interface software completely rewritten (almost) from scratch in little more than a weekend. Still work to do, but at least I'm back now to where I was before the hard drive failed...
-
Has managed to photograph two Ffestiniog locos today without going anywhere near Wales!
-
Overnight trip to Northallerton tomorrow. All essentials packed i.e. Bradford Barton diesel enthusiasts' pocket guides and 1863 Bradshaw!
-
thinks he needs to start leaving lost property on Paddington bound trains, now that he's seen who he'd be collecting it from...
-
Well, haven't got quite as much done today as I planned but have sorted out the electrical issues on "Wallingford" ready for next weekend!
-
last night passed the statue of his favourite British artist on the way to seeing his favourite Australian artist on stage :-)
-
Watched "Racing Legends - Colin McRae" this evening. Very sad to see poor old XM603 apparently rotting away - when I did work experience at Woodford 20 years ago a group of guys had got her into a smart condition and were able to taxi her :-(

Watched the programme about the WHR and now watching GBRJ from earlier this evening. With Dan Snow to come, is it any wonder I don't get much modelling done these days?

productive week or so's modelling on the layout in my Dad's loft. Double auto shuttle fitted and working, progress made on the main line signalling system (albeit not as much as I would have liked), and well on with the scenery on Board 2..

has deleted his browser history and still can't post! :-(

can't help feeling for Kernow and his crew - all their hard work at Cowley Bridge ruined again :-(
