  11. G'Day Folks I do remember, many years ago, when Tri-Ang/Hornby bought out there brand new Black Five, someone wrote in one of the model rail mags, that he wouldn't be buying it, as good as it was, because it had the wrong number, he wanted 4xxxx, and would wait until they did, I always thought this was an extreme view, even if Tri-Ang/Hornby changed the number twice a year, it would take over 400 years to 'do' them all....................! manna
  12. G'Day Folks Another picture on the state of the Darling River, showing the effects of water theft (Yes, some of it will have been paid for) manna
  13. G'Day Folks My Dads just renewed his Driving Licence for three years, he's not sure if he will last that long, he's 93, and Dementia is creeping in. So he has 12 months max, before we take it away. manna

  15. G'Day Folks Yes I have a couple of those loco's that I'm going to have a 'Play' with later. They are not that common in Oz, although they did sell in here, I had difficulty getting the ones I wanted. Plenty of GWR, the A2, was the hardest, I had to write to Amercon to get one. manna
  16. G'Day Folks Hi, Londontram, A few years back a bag of mixed axleboxes was offered on E-Bay, for a couple of quid, I put in a bid, no one else did, the only trouble was I have no idea who's they are, all told there were about 50, I know some are LMS and there are diesel ones as well, but now I've used all the LNER ones (about 40). I'll have to keep an eye out for some more. manna
