No it runs OK . I just hate traction tyres and plastic wheels on my stock. Alf

I replaced mine with the plastic wheels and traction tyres on . Got a cheap rear bogie with metal wheels off ebay and used the wheels to replace them . Easy to do. All the best Alf

I've removed Decals on Lima class 73's with Sellotape. Just stick over the Decal then pull off. No damage to paintwork. All the best Alf

That ice cream van looks very nice . Great work Gary. All the best Alf

I've got some CD/DVD motors from Finland off Ebay . They where £4.00 each with postage.

Poundland had tweezers with a light in them. YES they are a pound.

Hi Sam welcome to the RM . Alf

The arches look good. We all have to start somewhere the more you build the better you get. I look at some of my old card kits and think i can do better now .

This is the way to do it NOT

Hi Pilgrims way. Some info on here for you . http://www.semgonline.com/model/howtotip-2.html#p3rdrail All the best Alf As above to slow again. You will brake half the pots when you try to fit the rail to them. How do i know UM Think is was around 200 of them. You can see what the peco pot's look like at Dittons station.

I got 3 set's last year for Lima class 73's. Waiting time was 8 months from putting in the order. Lima conversion pack A 4 axel is what you need. So if you order now you will have them by Christmas Worth the wait in the end,

DoctorP. Have you looked at wills kits. They do 3 stone kits worth a look. https://www.peco-uk.com/prodtype.asp?strParents=3351,3352&CAT_ID=3354&numRecordPosition=1

Marker lights need fitting to head code box.

Humbrol and Revell solvents will not work on DC kits . You need to use Butanone Solvent. I have used Humbrol on my DC kits in the passed. They just full apart.
