  1. Doesn’t seem to be many of these about. steve
  2. There’s a more off colour version of this joke but in the interests of good taste, I will avoid it. steve
  3. Don’t worry about what other people think. They don’t do it very often. steve
  4. Can Kadees be fitted to TT120 stock? (Can’t find an answer anywhere.) Thanks steve
  5. I’m somehow not convinced by that livery version. It looks too contrived to me. steve
  6. Agreed. I chopped them off and made a body mount if I was keeping the trucks or, more usually, dumped the trucks entirely and fitted a body mount for a Kadee. Some cheap (& nasty) locos had truck mounted couplers but these were best avoided completely anyway. steve
  7. Quite agree. Can’t abide the stuff. steve
  8. Could it be slop in the rods, causing them to touch something? This is pure speculation, not knowledge by the way. steve

    And doesn’t look too happy about it. steve
  10. Anyone with small children who has watched the cartoon series Marsha And The Bear will recognise the loco! steve
  11. Thanks Jerry. At the moment, I will be at Bridlington in September and Selby in November. steve
  12. Nice layout and mixing up the prototypes makes it even more fun. Just for a change, had you considered European stock? Have a look at Diversion/Umleitung to give you an idea of how it can look. steve
  13. Surely there must be a market for a RTR UK fireless? There are HO Continental ones that don’t look too out of place on a 4mm layout. steve
  14. Chop off the axle boxes and anything else below the chassis, paint it and weather it grotty and plant it in a field as a shed. steve

    Just an insufferable feeling of smugness, superiority and privilege. steve
  16. Allegedly, when asked what he and Ernie Wise would be if they weren’t comedians, Eric Morecombe replied instantly “Mike & Bernie Winters.” steve

    Can’t see anyone wanting to steal him though. steve
  18. Reminds me of the old screensaver Johnny Castaway that kept me amused wondering what would appear next when I worked on an IT helpdesk. steve
  19. You wouldn’t listen when I told you it wouldn’t fit… steve
  20. Thanks and with this. Had it for years, don’t even know if it’s still available, sorry. steve
  21. The Hornby Sentinel 0-6-0 as been anonymised and shabbified for service on the layout. First image is in OOB condition. the other two now. steve
  22. Anyone recognise the railway location from Vera last night? 4 tracks but most of them rusty and 2 were just sidings. 143 action for the ‘service’! steve
