      Ultravox is pretty much the first thing that runs through my head whenever someone mentions the Eighties.... and I wasn't even a fan of the band :-O

    Hi Ben, Looking good. However please get Parkside to look at cooling times on the tool as I notice the sides are bowed, and its a simple cure to put right while moulding but almost impossible once made. HTH Cheers Dave

      Hornby? Bachmann? Heljan? ViTrains? Peco?.. you know, I just can't think of anywhere else...

  17. DJM Dave
    Hiya, the 22 was a painted EP sample I lent Carl for the purpose of photography on his layout. I was over hs house a few months back and believe me, it looks a proper treat 'in the flesh', and should attract some nice attention at the N gauge show in Leamington this year. Looking good mate. Cheers Dave

      Very sad news, although not totally unexpected. His enthusiasm and energy for everything he did in 2mm and N will be remembered for a long time. Condolences to Paula and his family.

      So sad, such a nice man. I echo Andy's condolences to Paula and family.

    I'm ready for my close up Mr DeMille!

  24. DJM Dave

    Mullered again by M.R. for one of our loco's. 80%!! what do we have to do to get better?

      TomJ

      In these reviews what does '80%' actually mean? 80% of what? Perfection? And how do you define/measure that?

    3. mikeharvey22

      mikeharvey22

      MR seems not to be able to decide what 00 scale is. 4mm = 1 foot (1/76.2) or 1/76. An 8ft bogie wheelbase at 32mm is often shown as wrong against the scale measurement!

    4. Swifty11

      Swifty11

      Often, I see that models I own (that a like!) get reviewed (especially in MR!!) get fairly bad reviews!

      Just remeber, no model is ever perfect!

    Japanese bullet trains in the snow on my Zenfolio site now!

    1. Andy Y

      Andy Y

      Just been for a nose, they look like Kinugli to me.

    2. Adams442T

      Adams442T

      They look like the misbegotten love kinder of a 'shed' and a Pendolino. Andy's right, there's at least Four Kinugli ones......

    3. DJM Dave

      DJM Dave

      i wouldnt know them if they jumped up and bit my behind.

      They just looked F'kinugli :-)
