    Rain. 4 sets of name plates and a new Hall arrived in the post. Put the kettle and radio on!

    Just found some coal and a track pin on my evening walk. Where? On the trackbed about half a mile east of the site of 53C!

    Missed out on an Ian Kirk GWR K22 kit at Donny swapmeet, but managed to snap up a new Hornby GWR 42xx for an excellent price... Err, does a secondary GWR main line need 2 42xx's?

      I do have a weakness for them...

      Uh oh, thanks for the info guys. Pronunciation duly amended!

    Looks like the Hornby LMS suburbans have landed early!

  6. County of Yorkshire

    My 64xx has arrived. Now do I feel a GWR BLT coming on...?

      Once the Hattons/DJM 14xx arrives we'll be drowning in branch motive power!

    How many 2800's can you reasonably justify on a secondary main line?

      Tempted by Kernow's much reduced 2807 Rob! I don't have an outside steam-pipe 2800, so...

    Can't believe that I saw a Bachmann Hall at a swapmeet today for spares/repairs- the reason? It had genuinely been run-over by a steam roller! :-D

      It obviously didn't pass the test on the rolling road.

    Acquired a second Hornby Castle 5075 'Wellington' before they inevitably sell out in the near future. You can never have too many Castles!

      Was just thinking about that Rob. Limited by the tender/cylinder cover combination. I'm in love with the idea of 'Hurricane' (favourite WW2 aircraft) but would need a Collett tender. Looking at Montgomery or Brecon Castle at the moment!

    Would anyone endorse the use of 0.5mm brass wire for handrails on a comet coach side? Can't source 0.45mm locally...

      Are the GWR coaches in your Flickr account painted with those Halfords cans?

    Has finally dived into working with brass and ordered coach sides for some RTR upgrades... Let's hope I can add a C70, C73 & E153 to my coaching fleet!

    Sick of announcements ,when will we see product on the shelves? Been waiting forever for some item!

    Pretty disappointed that 6 GWR Kitbuilt 70 footers have disappeared from eBay as quickly as they were listed. The seller obviously received a surreptitious offer for the job lot via pm - that's not cricket!

      Nice pieces of kit don't you think? Someone's got a nice 420ft rake there!

    Just taken delivery of a Glastonbury Abbey, and it looks like it's been in someone's rucksack at the festival! Grrr.

    Snapped up what I think is the last available Hornby GWR 72XX anywhere in the British Isles yesterday. Is it going under the tree... nah!

      I was slightly panicked that I wouldn't get one for a long while to come. Though I hope there's another release of them next year!
