    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.

    You've got me looking at my fruit d's Mike and the Dapol model is certainly lacking in the vacuum pipe department.

    I think he means bogof.Buy one get one free.

    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.

    You taking the Michael young man ?

    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.I particularly like the paintwork on the doors which screams GWR and the chocolate machine.Nice touches that bring it to life.

    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.

    He's not hiding weapons of mass destruction is he ?

    In this case they are empty on their return.

    I had assumed they were the same as milk tanks and had screwlinks.Thanks for that.A prototype photo link would be good.
  20. gwrrob
    And probably mine too.
  21. gwrrob
    Where did you get that emoticon as I could find a use for that on my thread. My article is on cider and pasties.
  22. gwrrob
    Spot on Yes.and not really.I just like the shot and may do the same with my 7200 before it's packed away.The Bachmann 93xx looks ok from 6 feet away. One of my first ever purchases.
  23. gwrrob
    Just a few b&w conversions tonight I'm afraid. No prizes, but can anyone tell me the loco class in the first shot ?
  24. gwrrob
    Try watching Nuneaton Boro.They're going well at the moment.Just up the A5.
