    The third image brings out the inscription on the plaque ‘ Overbrook Viaduct’  - we missed the opening ceremony by forty years !  Again we are looking up to your modelling .

    I'm looking at an earlier 0-6-0 tank in the near future. Focus is on a saddle tank, but core design work will be the same for a Pannier (or side tank). There's an obvious incentive to create something which fits on a RTR chassis such as Bachmann's 57xx (or 64xx I supppose) but I keep getting drawn to the 1076. If the Aberdare's chassis works out then I'll have a functional design which can be modded to other wheelbases.

    With the forthcoming Dapol autocoach there is, I’m sure, a need for a 517 class or metro tank. The Shapeways 517 on offer is at a much lowered resolution than your  products . The problem would a RTR 0-4-2 chassis of the correct length.

    Outstanding ,( but not like your scarecrow.)   Wasn’t this in the packing case at the creamery, delivered by Evri by mistake.

    I wonder if your completed weedkiller train will be available for hire , I would be interested if it could spray a pesticide to keep my woodlice under control !

    Ah yes, the order of jam and cream - those all-important little clues that have blown the cover of many a secret agent.

     

    Looking back through this thread, it is interesting to note that all images of the Finchings have disappeared. Clearly someone is trying to hide their identity. This is the last we heard of them: 

     

     

    I bet Rob knows more than he is letting on.

    Kernow GWR steam rail motor

    I have had good results with my DCC sound fitted Accurascale Manor running on DC. The chuffs are synchronised and apart from a lack of whistle sounds , all the expected sounds of movement are there, and the motor is controlled by the chip so very slow running and inertia are impressive.

    Kernow state that the sound fitted SMR will produce most of the basic sounds on DC in their advertising so, having ordered one, I’m hoping for similar results - until I’m converted to DCC!
