      Sorry Andy I accept your reasons but find it much less pleasant to view. Is then any other choices?

      Not at present Don; I would have to build more themes from scratch (and test) and I haven't got sufficient time available at present.

    Christmas money from my Grandparents + some of my own money = a GCR 8A (LNER Q4) to add to the loco stud. That's the last big gap in my GCR loco collection filled, then.

      I'm looking forward to seeing photos, a truly good looking locomotive

    Ho hum. I bought a GCR Pollitt 4-4-0 on Monday night, it was delivered today but the seller posted me a very nice Pollitt 4-2-2 instead. Polite email to the seller pointing out their error but saying I'd be happy to keep the single if it suits them...

      Added impetus to get my Parker rake finished! (well, one carriage started and one donor carriage waiting to be started.... which leaves me looking for another pair of Caley carriages to hack up!)

    Spent two months rehabilitating an old kit to have the paintwork ruined in 5 minutes by the varnish (Humbrol satin clear) going milky. Not best pleased....

      It won't come off nor will paint cover the blooms... Two months work down the drain, back to the start.

      Ebay on Monday night! It's a scratchbuilt example. When it arrives I shall see what's what with it (I already know it'll need repainting into LNER livery from BR black). I wasn't expecting to get it quite so cheap!

    Received 'Robinson Locomotive Liveries of the Great Central Railway' for Christmas. Now considering backdating my locos to 1920s GCR appearance.
