  1. Its worse when it is stopped at Parkway for about 20 minutes on a hot day.....24 May this year
  2. You can never put a model bus too close to anything.....especially a parapet....
  3. 2x4 stored in the garage rafters...layout was Pixash Lane on a pre-show fettle.....oops...
  4. I think the RTP stuff wil be fine - don't be tempted by finescale laser cut stuff.....or etched brass....
  5. Well..it is a bit hot for any actual modelling is it not?
  6. Was it a not obvious A5 version of an A4 original...if so I have been similarly caught out...? Chris
  7. Tim - I think you have hit both targets - us nerds....plus the general audience. Great stuff. Also great to see so many folk keen to preserve LT history and make it available. Chris
  8. Make sure you let us know when its "in"....I assume it won't make it by this Thursday.... Chris
  9. Unusually early for a kitten young George already seems to have "that look" in his eye.....Good Luck..
  10. I think stuff needs to be mechanically sound to start with but in terms if electrickery DCC does help - I am a fan of stay alives which also improve things...
  11. Thank you - I was simply following this thread having offered a solution - which seems to have been correct.
  12. I find the modifications recommended improve running on even the smallest layouts....particularly with short wheelbase locos
  13. It stirs! and in other news....I think an 02 diesel almost counts a kettle...tight curves.....older wagons....just saying...
  14. This is a good guide. https://www.wiringfordcc.com/switches_peco.htm
  15. I did the same in the 1990s....the US stuff was a revelation..I'm back now but I have a box of BR duds....when you take your trainset to a show you have to have stuff you can rely on....
