    I doubt it very much but his eyes will light up on seeing all those beasts up for grabs.

      The doctor asked me to strip naked but he was kind enough to let me leave my hat on.

    A little bird tells me this stunning masterpiece is in next months BRM.Will the article contain this threads banter too I wonder.Looking forward to seeing it in print.

    I saw the light on the night that passed by her window.I saw the flickering shadows of love on her blind.She was my woman.As she deceived me I watched and went out of my mind.All together now.

    Nice touch having some Dementors attacking the train and was that Aragog I saw too in the background ? Nice.

    Just over 2000 gate when it would have been 12-15000 at the Ricoh.I think the away fan effect is correct but hopefully we won't get that many every week.Would be in the play off mix if not for a points deduction.

    Lovely job but I'm confused with the Modelmaster plates having dimension problems as I used them on mine with no fault.However a trick is to cut around just the name and not to use the distance piece.It also keeps the Hornby lining for good measure.Here is my 5049 done this way http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/gallery/image/53800-br-liveried-castle-class-5049-earl-of-plymouth/ I used the Beverston donor for mine.

    With a Hawksworth tender of course ,please.
  10. gwrrob
    Only if they were used on the east coast mainline.This thread gets put in a plethora of different places.It's just like Diesels in the Duchy here.
  11. gwrrob
    None of them. It was India. He actually told me it was him that selects what GWR name that Hornby model [Castle,Star,Grange & Hall] and stands by his choice of Wellington with the Hawksworth tender.He bluntly said he don't care for those who rename etc as long it's a right combination at a moment in time for an initial purchase.

    I've added the pipes on the end and some on the roof between the vents similar in style to a bloater vehicle.A bit of weathering.I might fit some screw links over the winter. PUSB. Wheres the crowd ? Talking to Simon Kohler today and he tells me the Stars are in the country ! Ready for despatch.
  13. gwrrob
    You've got me looking at my fruit d's Mike and the Dapol model is certainly lacking in the vacuum pipe department.
  14. gwrrob
    I think he means bogof.Buy one get one free.
  15. gwrrob
    Well I've now had time to digest this news and you've made an inspired choice in ebay purchase.It will be an honour to run it.According to the Comet blurb the H25 was the restaurant coach used in the cross country service to Liverpool but more importantly to me was the fact it definitely received double lined choc/cream livery post war. Comet photo. http://www.cometmodels.co.uk/modules/viewcatpic.php/8/639 So is that another photo I've got to retake then Mike.
  16. gwrrob
    You taking the Michael young man ?
  17. gwrrob
    Yes and I have even seen photos of Kings with a b set in tow. I have photos of such trains on the Kingsbridge branch with a coach,van and brake so yes. My toad has a tail lamp but my fruit d doesn't so if I run without the toad I'd get castigated for no tail lamp on my train.I can't win.

    Very nice Chris.Shame the 45xx is black though.Not going to disagree though.
  19. gwrrob
    That's two nights running someone has disagreed with my post.
  20. gwrrob
    Her skirt is too short. Nice modelling though.

    ...on the Western front.

    A few tonight with a plethora of b&w conversions featuring different GWR engines. 7804 5011 4547 6696 6814
  23. gwrrob
    Very nice.I particularly like the paintwork on the doors which screams GWR and the chocolate machine.Nice touches that bring it to life.

    Missed out on some rather nice ebay goodies.Never mind.

      Absolutely.

    Thanks as always for that Mike.Both types were used on Esso wagons looking at Pauls website. Not one of the lucky buyers I afraid.They went for good prices too and even his Comet sides went for the same price as from Comet themselves.I could have used them too.The Slaters toplight sold for twice the price of the Mallard version incidently.
