Trains!

Both 1:1 scale and model. Main line, preserved, steam, diesel, electric, UK and abroad, anything that has wheels and runs on rails - all good! :-)

Modelling - mainly TT both UK 1:101 and Continental 1:120 scale after coming back to them from OO/HO in 1999;

But changing circumstances mean I've come over all a bit HO Luxembourgish of late...

Just had to bin 2 Humbrol tinlets from the 100s I inhertited from Dad as they had turned to gunk. Not bad going as they were 1970's vintage.

  I find a few drops of Humbrol thinners plus a good stir will revive 90% of old tinlets.

  Had to bin 3 recently as they had dried out completely. Managed to save 4 with some thinners though.

  I tried a bit of thinners, but just ended up with a watery sludge with solid bits in it, I think they're too far gone... :-(
