      Yes the nearest branch of Hobbycraft has seen a very marked reduction in the level of Hornby stock - still good on Woodlands Scenics though.

      Has always been pretty dire in the London area. Branches of Hobbycraft / ToysRUs have no railway items at all!

      Theres more choice for boys today and I guess its not 'cool' to like trains.My lad loves Skylanders and there were loads of those.

    Unbelievable... But what are they saying to each other I wonder.

    Saw this excellent layout in the flesh today at Warley and was very impressed.Very nice slow running ,cracking buildings and scenics and well presented too.The operator I chatted to was friendly too.I hope I didn't put him off too much.

    Mikkel.That canopy roof using the Wills sheets looks superb to my eyes and I could live with those edges myself.

      My local garden centre was getting the Christmas displays out, a large tree already decorated out front and adverts telling everyone that the 'Del Boy Look-alike' would be along soon!....

    Some people are really thick and have more money than sense too.

    A bump up for this topic but also a heads up on another BR liveried Castle thats available as a split from the 'A date with the duchy' pack.Its R2986B and is 7038 Taunton Castle.Its described as being late crest but model has the early one. £99. Thats quite a few BR castles now compared to the one in GWR livery. http://www.modelfair.com/acatalog/Hornby_00_Gauge_Steam_Locomotives.html

    Beautiful stuff Mikkel.The paintwork on those coaches looks superb.
  13. gwrrob
    I don't think so as I bought it back in the mid 90s from a small ad in the Railway Modeller.If I remember right they were also available as a double track version.It will come alive when Chris paints it.

    Now I know what you wanted GWR grey for Mikkel.Thats a cracking model and those Geen kits turn out very nice.Did you solder it or chicken out like me.
  20. gwrrob
    Very nice BT.I don't suppose you fancy building the newish 1/24th Mosquito.It looks a belter.
  21. gwrrob
    Tw*ts like these get a record contract and make millions but true inspirational artists who song write struggle to get a deal due to being the wrong side of 40.Lifes fair innit.

    DVD Recorders

    gwrrob replied to gwrrob's topic in Wheeltappers

    Well I've had a chat with Virgin and I'm going to get their Tivo service installed next month.Heres hoping it works out well and its only costing me £3 per month extra.

    DVD Recorders

    gwrrob replied to gwrrob's topic in Wheeltappers

    Thanks for that link.I'd forgot about that option.I'll give them a ring to see. The Panasonic HDD is the high end of what I'd be willing to pay.It looks a nice piece of kit though.

    DVD Recorders

    gwrrob replied to gwrrob's topic in Wheeltappers

    I have freeview on my TV but also have Virgin Media at the moment.Would there be a conflict using a HDD recorder/player ?
