  4. I have in the past used Brunel Models in Australia, the transfers for the Martin Finney T9 on Trenegloss had its transfers produced by Brunel Models
  5. The kit was produced by Boscarne of RMweb for his own rolling stock and as far as I am aware any surplus ones to his own requirements were sold off, two of which went to indomitable026 for Diesels of the Duchy, which got past onto me for building. The main hurdle to completing the build is the transfers of which there is now none available commercially, the originals were produced by Scale Model Transfers which ceased in Dec 2010. I am currently producing the TRL logo and the Tullis Russell logo for these two wagons from a jpg of the original transfers sent to me by Boscarne, most of the remaining transfers, the tops panel and the larger lettering can be obtained from Fox The difficulty of producing all the transfers is that the tops panel and the writing are white and there are not many models of printer that print white

  12. As Mark has said you could use staples but the industrial type not those for stapling paper, but you would also need staple gun and compressor, I know were there all of the items required to do the job quickly but theirs this thing called miles and miles between use You could also use upholstery tacks but again you would need a source, guess were Probably the best solution would be to use countersunk screws and cup washers
  13. Instead of using chain that gets in the way when you close the tressles for transport, why not use some nylon webbing which would be easier to fit,it's available in widths of 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" etc from ebay, comes in various colours too Available in 3,4 or 5 metre lenghts for about £2.50 plus postage
  14. We were better prepared, the only time we had a list of the items that should be on the van, (Andy's idea ) When we checked the list it was reported that the headgears were upstairs in room 3, the problem arose because everybody thought that somebody had fetched them when in fact nobody had, luckily "empty" was coming up on the saturday morning to do some operating before going to watch the football match

  18. The transfers that you were looking at on the S Kits Tiger wagons were produced by myself, I did purchase some from Scalemodel transfers last November well in advance, but when I came to use them the print on the transfers had not adhered to the transfer sheet and therefore they could not be used. hopefully I will get some replacements The transfers were produced using Coral Draw and transfer sheet from Crafty Computer paper and some of there Acrylic varnish
