  13. Wouldn't it have been convieniant for us modellers if BR had built a DMU for goods traffic. So much easier than buying loads of wagons...

      You'd often find a ubiquitous brown van or something similar at the end of any train almost anywhere in Ulster - including 70 class MUs and the like.

  14. Why when it's coldest is the water from the tap coldest, when youdon't want it to be cold, and when it's hot and youwant the water to be really cold, it's not?

      Is it something to do with the outside temperature?

    2. Frappington Jct

      Frappington Jct

      Yes, but why can't there be better insulation around water pipes?

      ..just got my news letter. BCB is not the "free layout" but the one on offer is still one I want to win. But I can't make it to Warley this year. :-(

  22. wishes Dapol would update their plastic wagon kit toolings

      Sadly, I think there's little likelihood of that, now. If you can find older Airfix versions of the same kits, you'll probably find a better quality of moulding, though. E-Bay is probably your friend here...

      That's never going to happen.
