My Discovery 2 is getting rather grotty on the chassis, a footstep is rotten, and a rusty seam under bonnet where it got pressure washed a year or so ago. Footstep will be welded, if it fails mot new chassis.

As usual Guerilla up for technical acheivement. As far as I am concerned they deserve it. I was a big player of Killzone 3 multiplayer, it looked absolutely stunning. I saw some footage from the first Call of Duty for the XBone / PS4 era and this will shock. It was the same resolution and looked worse on Bone, than KZ3 on PS3.

Steve from Railtec has come through 2 custom sets for Pool 7603 MSVs Ordered the 47 to go with them. Will be my 34 minerals next and my Clayliners.

I like th blue door

Will send when next on pc as details not on my phone

Railtec transfers

I did not hear back from you,i will look up my notes and take it from there, since i havve ordered quite a bit as well from you. May be isp or email issue Got 34 minerals now to sort out as well. The 2p looks great

For my minerals i noted down type, tops layout, tare, number. Had one anomaly a Morton equipoes labelled MCV not MXV.

I wanted custom MSV, about 18 of same pool, won't do them. Prepared to pay as well. Got the details somewhere. Actually have two complete rakes of numbers. But only want 7603 set.

Nice to see these. Looks like you modelled an ex WR IDMBSL Not noticed the profile differences on 116 and Lima though, a bit late for mine!

Transfers Got a bit of a problem, want to make up loads on TOPS panels, but cannot find the base transfers. Over 50 wagons to be done. Also one job i can't get railtec to do. TOPS wagon panels pool version, letters for the codes, pool numbers. Used to be SMS. Anything like this anywhere?

I fit brass bearings and LMS buffers, these are printed in the original resin so a bit fragile, unlike ABS Like, got 6 complete, running CCT transfers (thankyou). They look a lot better in real life than on phone camera Latest print from Iron Mink STLs using ABSLike resin

Wheel prices. Due to code 100 streamline i can use slightly deeper wheels, 3 hole disc Hornby were good value, now about 2.40 an axle. So will be buying more from Gibson. 34 wagons, was expecting to cost about 100, now quite a bit more. 6.50 of bits, 40p of resin. Roughly 200 now. I found spotting notes of a mineral wagon train. 10 clasp 20 Morton 4 10ft All running numbers and tares

Iron mink designs are non commercial. So doubt shapeways would do it.

My LRM one is coming along well, just detail parts and move some brake gear which is clashing,

We were chatting in the office back in pre covid era, a youngish lad who goes to see bands was raving about the guitarist (not sure who), saying best he has seen and best there is. Anyway I have see some of the best in the world, so mentioned seeing Van Halen in 1984, at the time Eddie Van Halen was probalby the best guitarist there was. Others including Gary Moore. Then I mentioned that the older boss, can out do that. He mentioned going to a festival with friends, and who was there? Jimi Hedrix. So I outdid with EVH and I was outdone with Hendrix.

OK try us? Then I will do my story of out doing and being out done.

Will the Bachmann glazing and underframe fit a Triang body? 2 BSO and a TSO, hmmm

I thought curing was uv light machine?

I am now working on a mineral wagon rake. 34 16t minerals. 10 MCV 20 MXV or MCV with Morton 4 10ft MCV This will be a lot of redin and LMS buffers. So far 1 in paint, 1 near complete, 2 parts collected. 6 good MCV prints, and 2 10ft. Iron Mink has done MXV .stl and i will start on these next weekend. Now transfers. Need a lot 34 16t mineral, 4 MDV , most of a pool MSV. Who does pool numbers and bigger tops boxes. Took me ages to decypher my notes. Dome mad person wrote down all running numbers, tares, brakes, tops codes. All were NTF no top flap, but i could not remember NT, until last night. No TOPS, as in no boxes. Currently in works. Ex GWR branch corridor set, 1 vehicle being soldered. Ex LMS BT Ex LMS hoppers 6 done out of 12, 6 to print. BR 1 2A 2D 2E 2F set half done, sprayed 2E TSO yesterday grey. Clayliners Various pre 64 vans 2 mineral rakes Mixed hopper, mineral, tube rake Stone rake. Layouts stalled in case we move home, as may downsize.

Stroud Valley was a good example of 14xx usage .

Small prairies for branches, 14xx worked local mainline services.

Frames easy part flush glazing not so. Has to be hand cut

That MCV is mainly 3d printed, but LMS buffers, and i fitted brass bearings. Odd it feels softer at 5 second than a 2.5 second test print left in the sun. Will leave todays 4 prints in the sun over the week.
