So who is going to build a model railway the same as Minature Wunderland? 😁

Here is a photo of my IRM NIR Mk2 coaches with a Murphy Models NIR GM No 111. The blue on the coaches is much darker than on the locomotive. I remember the prototype as all being the same colour as in this photograph taken at Belfast Central. February 1981 So; who has got the colour correct? IRM, Murphy Models or neither?

Excellent.

From the Rails website: So, who is "the manufacturer"?

Sticky stuff to put on the bearings?? 😁

My three Warwells arrived yesterday. Lovely models.

The convex bumps on one coach match into the concave bumps on the next coach, helping to maintain corridor alignment for passenger comfort.

So Hattons buys Model TrainStuff and Rails of Sheffield buys Hattons, would that make it Rails of Hatts 'n Stuff? 😀

But if you do that, then the warranty will no longer include the flushing. 😁

Nice gesture Hattons. https://bala-lake-railway.co.uk/hattons-model-railways-closing-down-sale/

Very intetesting article, but I have to confess that I thought the thread title was a typo for "changing trains"!

I just phone the surgery and make an appointment. Old technology but it works!

This flight had a stop over at Reykjavík and AFAIK was thus the first (and only) mainline locomotive in Iceland.

Impressive.

Carbon friendly electric planes.

Ever wonder why the Dapol Terriers sold out so fast? Now's your chance.

A bin man is driving along a street picking up the wheelie bins and emptying them into his rubbish truck. He goes to one house where the bin hasn't been left out. In the spirit of kindness and after having a quick look about for the bin, he gets out of his truck, goes to the front door and knocks. There's no answer. Being a conscientious bloke, he knocks again - much harder. Eventually, a man comes to the door. "Hello" says the man. "Hi mate, where's ya' bin?" asks the bin man. "I bin on toilet," explains the man, a bit perplexed. Realising the fellow had misunderstood him, the bin man smiles and tries again. "No mate, where's ya' dust bin?" "I dust bin to toilet, I told you!'' says the man, still perplexed. "Listen," says the garbage collector. "You're misunderstanding me. I mean, where's ya' wheelie bin?'" "OK, OK. " replies the man with a sheepish grin, and whispers in the collector's ear. "I wheelie bin in bed with the woman from next door!"

Complete with Accurasmell effects. 😀

Or we could just use the Bachmann era system 😁

My condolences. RIP

I suspect many others have made the same mistake. I know I did once (but I think I got away with it 😉)
