Is it off to meet up with the old tars on the quayside?

Isn’t that Duckface ? -
The newer locos won’t burn so well with all that Mazac!

It’s Celebrity Come Shunting !

I wonder if this would be too fragile as a 3D print in resin . I’m sure it would sell well if it fitted the AS Manor !
-
Thank you folks, I see now that I was fooled by the fact that coupling was ‘loosened’ to its limit !
-
I notice the front coupling appears to have a third link allowing it to be stowed straight. Is this unusual ?

Did Flying Fox leave LNER metals before it failed.? Asking for a friend who has a Hornby Flying Fox …….

What’s wrong with Tuesdays?

I think you ought to scramble your Flying Scotsman now Rob!

Perhaps the Gas Board have paid a visit - but please no Preiser figures digging with flashing orange lights on their van.

Magnificent, both of them. They do look at home in Devon. Will they be weathered or allowed to gleam?

The signal will have to want to change ….

I remember in my student days a psychiatrist who had painted his MG midget red one side , white the other and the bonnet and the boot weren’t weathered !

I hope the Bentley driver accepts the blame and that his insurance covers all the repairs ; otherwise Tom’s premium will rocket nest year.

Are we in the North Hams now?

We like watching in slow motion ! -
Oops - of course you’re absolutely right! Careless of me. 200 lines by tomorrow.

Clever use of tree shadows on backscene to simulate steam escaping from safety valves!! - and a good view of the improved chimney Bachmann put on the 83xx class.
-
Thank you - that’s most helpful. So a scale width of 9 ft is just over the 8’11 1/8 “ for the Manor’s cylinders - should fit most oo platforms with the narrower scrolls fitted.
-
Thank you for pointing me at that archive. Looking at the model it looks as though though the bogie suspension arms project well beyond the steps.
-
Planning ahead for the arrival of the Steam Railmotor I was wondering if anyone had any information on the platform clearance required for the motor bogie and Dean suspension. The Accurascale Manor has already caused a platform rebuild due to its cylinder width.
-
That’s interesting- I haven’t run mine through my Limpley Stoke platforms - but I’m expecting a rebuild for when the Kernow Steam Railmotor arrives - the Dean bogie suspension looks as though it will need even more clearance than the Manor cylinders.

I bought one from Hattons daily secondhand page last month late crest unlined , DCC fitted : so I took the chip out and it runs really well . Haven’t sent it up hills yet but it’s ok on the flat.
