      waiting for parts to arrive and then dismantling the thing and putting it back in the kitchen may take some time.

    £60 for a push pull set seems reasonable enough.

    Day one of modelling done. Trying to work out why my n gauge test track doesn't look quite right yet.

    Well the wife has decided I'm not an electrician after wiring a light and 5 wires into one choc block will not go

      Well actually the thing I was doing, beefed up the choc block as the one supplied wasn't man enough for me. But accidentally snipped a wire too short so had to make an inline splice.

    Last day at work this year, looking forward to doing some modelling, hopefully the heater in the workshop will keep the cold out.

    Today I might do some kit bashing and painting whilst waiting for my tescos online shop to arrive.

    I built one of the Cambrian model versions of this brake van, and it was minefield of variants which did not help when attempting to build. The instructions were as clear as mud but once i took the plundge and built it it was a nice model to have, then 2 weeks later Bachmann announced they were going to release the model and I thought oh well these things happen. I did use as reference a few photo I took of the West Somerset Railway brake Van, but I believe this one to be an ex MOD version and also the one at the Yeovil Railway centre.

    I believe these brake van were in fact based on a SECR brake van underframe and due to number actually they were widespread on the Southern Region.

    Bullshot the movie where the railway scenes are filmed on the Bluebell railway. Plus one of the Dirty Dozen films where they live at a station.

    Friday is here, weekend nearly started and playing golf over an old railway line. All in the name of research I keep telling myself .

  21. WindyHale76

    Think either Dapol or Graham Farish Class 66 can't decide which one yet

    Looks like something I'm going to be buying in the future. Hopefully The Yeovil set will be included at some point in the distance future.
