    For want of solid brass round head screws, a week was lost!

      If all any of us have to worry about is whether it's raining or not, everything must be ok!

      My wife loves going away. I worry about the cats and want to get back home.

      Our neighbours are also cat lovers! One more sleep and we're away.

    A block button would be good!

      There is one,top right hand corner of the screen next to your user name is as upside down triangle, click on that and then click on "manage ignore prefs".

      Got it! Thanks.

    A sad day for football. Another season and Moyes would have got them relegated!

      I'd have him as my teams manager.

      I can't see Moyes dropping down to the Conference.

    About half my collection has sold on eBay, a load more to list. Taken me years to get my hands on some of them. The boss better not change her mind about a garden railway.

      Decided the best approach is to be open and honest. I won't easily hide an 18" high wall in the back garden or the cost of a live steam locomotive. It's not like sneaking a Hornby class 50 into the house when you already have a few Bachmann 47s.

      Garden railways you'll love it, Built my first in '75 contimued for another 35 years!! Now relegated to the shed, new garden too slopey ( thats not messy but inclined!!)

      I'll be asking for your help in a few months! ;-)

  6. YK 50A

    After much procrastination, the old layout won't go in the loft without surgery. Back to plan B and starting again.

  7. YK 50A

    Air conditioned Mk2's!

      Bit of a minefield what?!

      Quite!

    Anyone got a Bachmann Deltic BR blue bodyshell? About to give up and get Ballymoss from the Bachmann service dept.

  10. YK 50A

    Anyone got a spare Bachmann blue Peak body? Made a right ***** of a simple detailing job. :-(

    1. YK 50A

      YK 50A

      Thanks mate, but the job was fitting train air brake tanks under the battery boxes, so it's only a Class 45 that'll be in keeping. I'll never learn, all I had to do was spend 5 minutes taking the body off. Argh!

  11. YK 50A

    Anyone got a spare Bachmann Deltic windscreen wiper blade? :-(

  12. YK 50A

    Anyone know where (other than Fox) I can get custom transfers made up?

      Precision Decals or Railtec models.

      YK 50A

      Thank you. Funnily enough, it's for a couple of departmental coaches, stencilled lettering.

  13. YK 50A

    AnyRail insomnia!

  14. YK 50A

    Back from our hols. Need some inspiration and a cash injection for layout mk3!

  15. YK 50A

    Beddgelert is winning friends in this house: http://www.roundhouse-eng.com/bedd.htm. Puts Bachmann's price hike into perspective!

      Garden Railway ??

    3. YK 50A

      YK 50A

      Yes indeed. Most of my 4mm stuff will be going to finance it, although I'll be building a new layout for the children. The thought of a fictitious narrow gauge railway somewhere in the UK is liberating, after trying to recreate a bit of the ECML for the past 4 decades!

  18. YK 50A

    Deltic wiper blades, Bachmann haven't got any - HELP!

  19. YK 50A

    Designing the next layout and trying to accept the constraints of available space - this time!

      An essential first step in cracking the age-old research problem: which came first...! :)

      Just spotted this - any Easter eggs yet?

    4. YK 50A

      YK 50A

      I'd forgotten I'd posted it. It took a couple of weeks from order to delivery; a new Cube arrives on Thursday. The only Easter eggs were chocolate, but there were lots!

  24. YK 50A

    Finally got round to joining the Association of 16mm Narrow Gauge Modellers. Should I expect a life changing event?

    4. YK 50A

      YK 50A

      I'm quite enthused. ;-) Do you do the G Scale Society too?

  25. YK 50A
