  1. I am currently playing with some shunters (prototypical and otherwise) in the run up to the Weston SM show....
  2. If you did want to reproduce that it would be relatively straightforward. Airbrush the grime on and then "clean" the relevant bit of the loco with a minibrush, a cotton bud or paint brush moist (but not wet) with the appropriate thinners...mimicking the movements made by a cleaner - it could be a long handled brush done from sleeper level with some of the yellow panel also cleaned for better visibility as well as the headcode box?
  3. Please don't encourage him! Think of the resale value....🙄 Chris H
  4. If you can see well enough to find it of course...... Chris
  5. I've just completed a laser cut card kit by MMR models of a Type 15 signal box. Very pleased with the kit (and email support). I prefer mdf for brickwork but the card in this kit works well with the timber prototype. ChrisH
  6. I'm also told Humbrol 77 is a good substitute as well but I'm yet to try it... Chris
  7. This may help - my first attempt in 7mm now sold. I'm looking at something a little smaller in 7mm using cut down Setrack points so I can keep some of the stock - most of my smaller locos seem quite happy running over it.. Chris H
  8. Get a grip man....of course you do...
  9. Penmaenbach is at Weston Super Mare on 14 January. https://www.ukmodelshops.co.uk/event/y2024/25857-BurnhamandDistrictModelRailwayClub_Exhibition Regular readers will know I do like to ring the changes so a new signalbox may be deployed... A BR LMR Type 15 laser cut kit from MMR models with a very few additions. Chris H
  10. I asked the same question and was told on here they clip in and no screws are needed (unlike the Deltic) I'm yet to try mine... Chris
  11. In true RMweb style...... Surely you mean referenda? Or do you.....? Interesting topic...
  12. Mine is as yet unopened....a treat awaits...
  13. Mr Castens will do Mail order I think? Edit - I've now just seen Coombe Barton's post above - he agrees!
  14. Please remember that as one gets older one needs better lighting....and many of us are knocking on a bit....just saying Chris H
  15. I shall follow with interest - I also have one to try.. Chris H
  16. https://www.lakesguides.co.uk/html/lgaz/lk10276.htm
  17. I'd be interested to know how you did the grubby sheen on the manors? Chris H
  18. This may help: https://railsofsheffield.com/products/revolution-trains-rt-cl18-be-001-clayton-class-18-18001-cbd90-beacon-rail-hybrid-battery-diesel-locomotive https://www.flickr.com/photos/103471893@N02/albums/72177720313497887/ Chris H
  19. I did the same because I'd seen a comment about a January delivery and I had a new card last month due to a loss and replacement of all my cards with new numbers etc. SLW are a small outfit and I thought that it was easier for me to tell them now than wait to be contacted when they tried to take payment from an old card. A few people appear to have done the same following posts here and elsewhere according to my brief chat with Phil Sutton. Chris H
  20. I was really talking about the overall presentation of the oval...
  21. I mentioned it but I think I got away wth it....
