  1. The project tracker also tells us that another eight projects are in production at the moment - so I’m still expecting it to arrive in Q3 at the same time as KMRC’s Steam Railmotor!
  2. Very close up they do look a bit like a pullover that needs de-bobbling - I wonder if there is a word for 3D pixels?
  3. It will be going back to the works when an AS Enparts Siphon delivers a replacement slide bar set from Brassmasters!
  4. Pleased to be firing an ex works mogul Sid is happy to be photographed at normal and close viewing distances! I will be very happy for him and Bert to crew my Manor!
  5. I’m sure they will look absolutely spiffing at normal and even closer viewing distances. I think this community has redefined delayed gratification: maybe our expectations have become a little unrealistic. I’m sure the models won’t be.
  6. It sounds as though your Modelu crew had a chance to escape from the Jiffy bag but chose to stay in and come to you-! They must have been wowed by your Devon scenery in the absence of thei promised Manor!
  7. That’s scrubbed up really well ! Darkening the wheels and motion disguises the age of the chassis really well - and now you have a Mogul Dapol didn’t make …yet !
  8. Just try asking for a low alcohol scrumpy on a Saturday night in either pub !
  9. That’s a great new view - so inviting ! My eye is drawn to the Parish notice board on the pub wall - ‘ gardener wanted, lost cat, Parish council agenda, horse for sale ‘ - I can almost read it !
  10. I will examine the controls of my locomotive while it is stationary- so it will all look fine!
  11. I think they are standing very still in case the prize testosterone-filled bull in the Beetle sees them through the louvres in his compartment and kicks a hole in his door!
  12. Perhaps we could persuade John to do a Webinar on the subject !!
  13. Sorry to hear of your dice with death and impressed you had the presence of mind to turn off the fuel supply before baling out. Will the insurers replace your leathers, I wonder : a personal injury claim for lacerations and burns would be far more expensive!
  14. Those braziers look so unstable - I wonder how many fell over in real life.
  15. I may be wrong but I thought I saw a fleeting mention of ‘517’ but I was happy to see the diecast motorcade. Wasn’t that a TR3 in the front row?
  16. I’m putting mine to work on my newly acquired ( Hattons bargain ) Dapol mogul for route familiarisation until their Manor arrives. I think I’ll have to order a second crew now.
  17. Humphrey Littleton in ‘clue’ used a ‘gnats crochet’ as a unit of musical time- that’s even smaller than a c**k.
  18. According to the findings from the James Webb Telescope time does not exist…. So perhaps you can travel faster than light and arrive on the previous night.
  19. That’s the best photograph yet of the viaduct itself. I’m looking forward to the naming ceremony when the plaque will be unveiled by a local dignitary. Will the GWR local general manager turn up? No doubt it will feature in the Encombe gazette.
  20. Get well soon, Rob - it doesn’t last long and I hope it doesn’t shut Miss RRH’s hospital wards down too !
