      Any resemblance to real objects, existent or scrapped is purely coincidental... ;-)

      Surely a simple sheet of canvas would do?

      Spreadsheets for adding up.

    "I take it for granted," says he, "that in determining the dimensions in each case, due regard has been had to the curves and gradients of the line, which ought to form a most essential, if not the principal, condition."

      BBBG ( Bring Back Broad Gauge ) for that smooooother ride !

      Brunel's track was rubbish, actually. It wasn't until they removed the original piles that it started to be anywhere near smooth. By which time, it was all too late of course

  10. Miss Prism

    What is it with manufacturers who are obsessed with liveries and not at all bothered about structural authenticity?

    1. MarkC

      MarkC

      Hornby Dublo Southern liveried N2, for example? Some things never change

    Detail is good, overscale detail is bad

      Does it actually run OK? is paramount.

    Looking for a thread with a faded crimson 7mm WEP 'Beetle' and a maroon Fruit D - it was posted yesterday, but darned if I can find it again!

    Yesterday's message throughout the day was "We are sorry you cannot use your Virgin Media broadband. The latest update we have is that the problem should now be fixed. Our engineers are just running some final tests to confirm. We're working to complete this as soon as possible."

      Do you think they could have managed the gauge conversion weekend?

    The voting on the RMweb images thread is getting a bit like the Eurovision Song Contest...

      richbrummitt

      I didn't know this feature existed. I'll probably still not look it out.

      Good job too. I use it in combination with PrtSc and Alt-PrtSc for screen grabs where right click menus need to be visible - something the 'snip' tool doesn't appear to be able to do.

    The Great Western is the line. So smooth. So polite. West Country politeness. So fast. (Arnold Bennett, 1924)

      sounds painful

  22. Miss Prism

    Interesting clues in Bachmann's new 2013 calendar, e.g. the J15, but I thought a few of the pages could have been published in a Hornby calendar...

    1. Horsetan

      Horsetan

      The Hornby calendar might be in a container from the PRC. Then again, it might not. Nobody really knows...

  23. Miss Prism

    I was using only my own eyes, M'lud...

      Andy Y

      And very observant ones they are. ;)

  24. Miss Prism

    The usual RMweb software 'upgrade' - it's 500% slower than before

  25. Miss Prism

      Andy Y

      Hmm, something seems to have disappeared whilst images were being moved between two servers yesterday. Will investigate.
