  1. Only £80 at rails atm. https://railsofsheffield.com/first-great-western-class-08-822-diesel-shunter-locomotive-john--JJJA27235.aspx
  2. Have a cigar - Foo Fighters (pink floyd) Where did you sleep last night - Nirvana unplugged (ledbelly?) Love Machine - Artic Monkeys (girls aloud) And Billy Jean - Chris Cornell (Michael Jackson )
  3. Cheers I'm pleased enough. Would do a couple of things differently when I do another one. Have got a crazy idea of trying to make a working one so all ideas and hints are appreciated especially with the actual beam
  4. Yeah I'm not too pleased with the chimney. Made it quickly out of thin card without trimming enough. Think I need a rethink. Thanks for the tips on covering
  5. Sat at home eairler this evening playing with my new airbrush with the window open and I heard the Falmouth unit blow is horn as usual then an very loud bang/thud come from the railway (garden backs onto the branch) Yet again some oiks have been playing silly ****ers and playing with the ballast by the trescobeas foot crossing.... (Photos taken from outside the rails from the foot crossing whilst I knew the unit was safely stopped in truro) If only the kids knew that those stones they're putting on the tracks are probably covered in human excrement.....
  6. Here's my first properly scratch built building. Have done scalescenes kits before so used the tried and trusted card and printed paper method to make this. Not modelled on any particular mine, but inspiration taken from many I see whenever I go out on my bike
  7. Led lights aren't a solid light. They're actually flashing at say 30hz. The cameras frame rate is max of about 60fps which doesn't sync and makes the led appear to flash
  8. might have seen this on national news a wile back... Luxury super yacht builders van
  9. Just looking at the site it looks quite good, but no mention of how many parts it will be... at 7.99 an issue, these part works often go on for over 100 issues you're looking at the best part of a grand if you get the binders.... value for money or no? Also, constructing the brass etches using superglue? Is that just so that the a & e departments countrywide don't have an influx of people with soldering burns or is it the way forward?
  10. Theres no wheelie bins supplied by the council. They prefer bin bags in round plastic bins. Some people in falmouth have bought their own, and commercial propertys use them. There is now however garden waste wheelie bins, which are a brown colour and you need a "kerbside licence" or some other money making scheme to use.
  11. For bodmin moor youd get away with some gorse and granite...https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=bodmin+moor&safe=off&client=ms-android-hms-vf-gb&espvd=1&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sboxchip=Images&sa=X&ei=yLdVUtmbAsLV0QWepIGIAw&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAA&biw=360&bih=567&dpr=2
  12. Lol. I cant view this on my mobile. Vodafone seem to think its porn.
  13. Just found this on the interwebs and thought of this layout....www.wordsworthmodelrailway.co.uk/townscene.html Bottom on the page is a lovely static

  18. My girlfriend actually got me back into the hobby, on returning from a weekend away in Paris she bought me a Hornby train set on sale in hamleys with her student loan and it progressed from there. She probably regrets it now but if she ever complains I can just remind her it's her own fault
