  1. Build a layout for you, guv?

  2. Now offering to fit DCC decoders - see the Market Place

  3. Hatton Parkway has a new home. That just leaves 'Shake-the-Box' looking for a new owner.

  4. Charmouth has gone to its new home. How come there STILL isn't any space in the garage?

      You've now put the car in it.

      Hmm, I knew I shouldn't have put the layout in the car...

      It's a variation of Parkinson's Law....Junk expands to fill the space available...My loft is testament to this!!

  5. Is that the sound of the redundancy fairy I hear behind me?

      Not after what you've been through mate surely 8(

  6. Run out of space! Need to re-home some layouts so that I can build more!

      You could always sell one or two. You gain space and some dosh.

    Bridging the Gap

    That looks like a step (or four dozen of them ) in the right direction.
  8. My mind's made up - don't confuse me with facts!

      Men, I need options. And not our regular options. The options we bust out for special guests.

  10. Three little words... 'Stop watching topic'

  11. For the black headcode can I suggest painting a piece of waterslide decal black and then cutting to size? All you have to do is position it in the right place, much easier than trying to paint it in situ.
  12. I'd suggest tweaking the track on the second board, then giving the whole thing a thorough playing with, sorry test, before starting to ballast - it is a lot easier to tweak copperclad track before it is painted and ballasted.

    Track Ready to Lay

    Baseboard? What's wrong with the floor?

      Me too! just realised the only significant purchase was bits for the 2-8-2 in 2010, no blue or red boxes at all. 2011 looks like it will continue

  15. You can't do that Ivor, it's against Regulations.
  16. Will you be adding Settle's computerised microwave (shown in the background) too? I doff my hat to your neat work Cap'n.
  17. Tut, tut Cap'n - either your loco is too tall or the coaches too short - just compare them to the prototype
  18. Don't fiddle with it Pete, in 2mm it is so easy to overdo the texture. I think you have got it spot on as it is. You can always add a little shadow when you are weathering it - but you can't take away too much.
  19. SWMBO nearly missed her train. Supposed to be to Crewe from Platform 4b - it was hiding on 4a claiming to be for Cardiff. Thank you Arriva.

  20. Hmm. I've got some small clear bags. I'll have to sort out a trashy photocopier and set up in business
  21. What do you call someone who uses Google to find out the colour of the wheelie bins in another town? A railway modeller, of course!

  22. SWMBO went to hang something up in her wardrobe and the rail collapsed. Straws and camels' backs springs to mind!

      tell her to throw some out, then leg it fast lol
