      Been there done that and still doing that.

  10. That stuff works great on track and scenic work generally, and I've used it on mineral wagons to reasonable effect, but I wouldn't put it anywhere near white or light coloured panels as it stains the surface, being a dye not a paint...with a bit of remedial work the 20 could be made into a dirty, grimy faded version, but otherwise I guess you're looking at new transfers at the least...
  11. just saw a clip of the SS Great Britain floating in green jelly - thought the headline was a wind-up!!

  14. When, oh when are we going to get an N gauge 175 Coradia in ATW livery?! Can't be long now surely; we've already got 168's and 170's...

  15. Thanks for bringing this layout to the fore; just one problem for me - I access this site from work during breaks and they don't allow uploads from picture sites so your pictures come up as boxes with red crosses in them!! Could I respectfully suggest you use the RMweb picture upload option then we can all see the pics and post comments accordingly?! Thanks David
  16. Just had an email from Hattons to say my items have been picked and packed for delivery tomorrow!! Woohoo! New project for the weekend beckons...
