  7. Passing oik: why take pictures of trains when you can buy magazines? ...2+2=5 then does it? Why do I always think of this stuff after they've gone?

      I take it he's never wondered where magazine photos come from?

       

      That's right - people with cameras, taking photos.

       

      Most never get used - but some do - maybe this year - maybe next year - maybe in about 50 years' time - but they all came thanks to some guy with a camera.

  8. HEY YOU GUYS! Gotta love the Goonies!

  9. Officially onto my 2nd 7mm loco kit. Time to apply what I learned on the first build.

      There appears to be something wrong with either the positioning or the type setting of the nameplate. It doesn't look straight.

  12. Lost my glove in Darlington, and losing one glove renders the remaining glove useless... I need new gloves.
