Mine arrived this morning well worth the wait, pleased with all aspects cannot make my mind up about fitting the cab doors though. Runs great straight out of the box well done Bachmann

Hi, BR Early Emblem with sound, ordered last week on the 15th. Cheers

Just noticed that my credit card has been charged and my order has now moved to "in progress" on my rails account. Not much longer to wait!

Hi Phil, In answer to your post its a crime mystery thriller I guess you could say, as for publishing hmm I am no Ian Rankin believe me! The feedback will be interesting to say the least and I am not saying no to maybe a ebook on Amazon but really I doubt its up to standard. I will let you know what my readers make of it lol! Mean time its back to trains in the shed!

Morning, Thought I would pop in here and wish all of you the best for Xmas and New Year , Ive not been around for the last six months which has just seen me complete a major project. In simple terms I have written a novel which Ive had printed (Xmas presents for the kids/friends) something Ive always wanted to do but never had the time or tenacity to follow through on. I have a new found respect for writers! The feedback should be fun or maybe not! Enjoy the festive season guys Alan

Ordered mine on Wednesday from Cheltenham Model Centre Royal Mail 48 hour tracked arrived Friday, pleased I took the plunge and purchased this model which runs like a dream on my layout especially at slow speed. Well worth the wait guys!

Afternoon, Heavy rain with 40mph winds has been the feature since Saturday night, this has meant/means no outside jobs! Tided the garage up yesterday and have rubbish all ready for my appointment at the local tip tomorrow, I forgot about the last one, slipped my mind till the following day. Hoping the rain stops if present for my tip run, fingers crossed. Enjoy your day more so if you have dry weather!

Morning, the rain arrived about 30 mins ago, thunder and lightning due around 5pm if the forecasters are correct. In the the shed at the moment ( peace) whilst other half is busy baking, I will probably go for a nap after lunch as last nights sleep or lack of needs rectifying. At least it's cooler today which is welocome. Enjoy your day folks

Afternoon from a very warm location! We have a breeze but it's just warm air so no respite but never mind. House like an oven with all windows open and blinds etc closed however my shed is very nice at a steady 75f which makes it seem cool compared to elsewhere. Hammerite and brush cleaning no never even attempted, bin and that's it. Front lawn needs mowing but that wait till this evening when it's a bit cooler. Saw a headline that the Brits are booking a holiday every 11 seconds eh not in this household at this point in time. Enjoy the rest of the day folks

Morning, After a very busy weekend and a broadband failure on Monday which has only just been fixed I am numerous pages adrift being up to date on the comings and goings on here. So congratulations and commiserations as appropriate to all. In the same vein as others its to hot to do any jobs today a book to be read and a gin and tonic ( maybe x2) to be enjoyed sat under our beech tree in the shade. So enjoy your day and the sunshine.

Oval for me, whilst I enjoy shunting wagons about I am more than happy to watch a long freight or passenger train trundle through the station. Space though I guess is aways a deciding factor, currently a 16x12 shed houses my layout so I guess I am lucky. Oval or end to end having some form of layout to play/run is the important thing!

Afternoon from a very wet/damp and still raining part of the North West. Its not stopped raining for more than an hour since the early hours of yesterday morning just as I had an email from United Utilities asking me to be careful with my water usage! Water butts are full to the brim! Time has been productive in the shed though as I have gone through every box sorting and placing in correct boxes etc. No real finds apart from a couple of fine hair paint brushes I forgot I had. In other news the tap in the ensuite bathroom sink decided to leak ie drip when turned off, this meant a replacement cartridge had to be sourced and fitted. Cost of £20 for this particular one, a lot more than an old tap washer! Also not helped by the fact that one of the isolation valves (cold fill) decided it would leak when turned to isolate the water supply to the tap but would cease to leak when turned on to supply water to the tap! So I replaced that at the same time which extended the job time. Brownie points galore obtained though but I need a rest now! Mug of Tea Scone Jam and Cream beckon so Ive just been told! So Enjoy what's left of the day

Going to be wet for a while yet I think

Morning, Steady rain here which is due to last for a couple of hours according the forecasters before a short break then more rain.At least it stops me doing any outside jobs! Congratulations on your anniversary Aditi and Tony enjoy your day.

Will be interested to hear your thoughts after giving it a go, quite tempted to get one so a user review would be welcome!
