That Princess Coronation reminds me... We've already discussed The Repair Shop, there's now The Repair Shop - Australia on Quest. The first prog had a 3-rail Dublo "Flying Scotsman" in for repair which was done - it looked suspiciously like a Duchess running as an 0-6-0!

First round of British Superbike at Navarro in Spain(!) this weekend. Also, World Superbike at Assen. Both live on Quest (Ch 12 Freeview) from 11am on Sunday. BTCC starts next weekend!

Ah yes - they were too small for me to even think about fixing!!

Did Heljan do a 37? I suspect that it is for a Vi Trains version - that needed much fiddling and painting for buffer furniture. The "snow ploughs" are some of the yellow bits - no idea what the sprue of little yellow ones are for.

It's not just you, there was a post on here when the Midland Pullman HST first appeared that it was the wrong colour!!

Didn't notice until I saw the photo! (Smokebox number wrong - in the catalogue at the time 45606 was pristine, early crest)

On the Deltic it's like Ernie's wig... You can't see the join.

First round if MotoGP this weekend. Ducati dominance again?

It's all good advertising... Every time CH & JV are mentioned so is a certain liquid.

Just watched the highlights of Phillip Island World SBK. Thought it was going to be a Ducati white(red)wash again after race 1 and Supersport Races 1 & 2 but Alex Lowes' Kawasaki took Superpole and Race 2, Ducatis took the next SIX places though!

Just had the body off on D12 to lubricate the bogie pivots - the squeek was driving me mad! So took the opportunity to unplug the cab lights. Don't have to chase it round after every stop with the wand now.

World Superbike Round 1 this weekend at Phillip Island - Race 1 already tken place . I don't know the result so please don't tell me!
