It's livestream day!! Join us tonight at 9pm (GMT) as we start work on a DJH LB&SCR C2! Should be a fun build! See you there, Gary

I will reread my email when I'm back in the shop, In the meantime I'll concede it's quite likely I would be the one wrong in this situation, I didn't have any outstanding orders with Hornby, or plans to order anything before the announcements, so only read it once, which is a rather low number of reads for me!

It's the weekend!! and we are returning to our regular scheduled programming with the beginning of a new project in the form of a DJH LB&SCR C2!! So join us tomorrow night at 9pm (GMT) as we begin work on this project!! Be back tomorrow with the link! Gary

Hornby's appears "earlier" in my subscription feed, meaning they scheduled their slot first, judging by the videos in between by a couple of hours at least

With the latest price rises I got an email from Hornby at my shop saying prices for any existing orders would stay the same, and that I had another week to order at the old price, can't say about previous prices rises, as I haven't been at the shop that long. Gary

Rapido have said that there's will work with Hornby's coaches, so I wouldn't worry too much about that

It's livestream day!! Join us tonight for a very different type of livestream as me and some of my viewers play some Railroads Online together!! and if anyone here has a copy of the game and wants to join in, let me know! Gary

It's the weekend again, and we will be having a very different livestream this weekend, we will be playing a train simulator called Railroads Online, which is based around 19th century US 3ft industrial railways, and allows anyone with a copy of the game to join in (providing they have the password for the world) so we are hoping for lots of people to come and play! I will be back with the link tomorrow, until then I have the review from the livestream 2 weeks ago for you to enjoy! I'll try to be back later with my written review of 2021 in modelling! So I'll see you then! Gary

I like to think I am giving all these terriers a forever home, where they won't be abused or neglected!

Well it is Boxing Day, and I hope everyone has a good Christmas! (I did, I have another Terrier now! That's 17 in 00!) and tonight we are going to have a nice relaxing shunt tonight on South Park Quarry, and test out my new multi camera setup! So See you there tonight at 9PM (GMT)!!

Merry Christmas everyone!! I won't be promoting it tomorrow for (hopefully) obvious reasons, but I will be livestreaming this weekend, a nice relaxing livestream with some shunting on SPQ!!

It's livestream day!! I never managed to get the review video of last weekends livestream, but I will say we only have a few more minor details to add to the SE&CR 46' Birdcage Brake!! So join us tonight at 9pm (GMT) as we get it done!! See you there!! Gary

Hi Bob, Great to see you posting again, I hope you are well my friend? I second the recommendation for a Peco LK-55, just got one into my shop. (I part own a model shop now!), having not been able to get them from Peco for quite a while, it is a very nice kit and quite simple to setup, and as Phil says, Peco do a motorising kit as well. Gary

Yes........ Rapido, who have been at it long enough to have gotten the right to the Titfield Thunderbolt, which Hornby didn't because Rapido already had them are making announcement just in case Hornby announce something that they have already announced............. Gonna be honest here, I'm not sure I follow the logic

It's livestream day! and after a week off I am back at full heath ready to finish the build of the Mallard Models 46' SECR Birdcage Brake!! Join us tonight at 9pm (GMT) to see if I can actually manage it this time!

It's the weekend! and I'm not ill (so far!) so let's get ready to try again with finishing the Mallard Models 46' SECR Birdcage Brake!! See you there tomorrow night at 9pm (GMT) In the meantime, I will leave you with a video looking at the layout that this thread is named after!! Hope you enjoy! Gary

Well I will not be livestreaming tonight, I woke up this morning not feeling great, and I still don't one of the things wrong is an odd feeling in my throat, there was a tightness there this morning, but that went away quickly, to be replaced by this feeling that I can't quite describe, so I'm not sure I can manage 3 hours talking to a microphone. I'm going to go take a Covid test, not that I actually think that's what it is, hope you are all well! Gary

I have a pair of Holden 0-4-0s sat back-to-back in my shop just so they look a bit like that, it's very tempting to take them home and get the razor saw out!

It's the weekend! and we didn't manage to get the carriage build finished last weekend, so instead we will get it done this weekend! Well I hope so anyway! So why not join us at 9pm (GMT) tomorrow and see? I'll be back with the link tomorrow, until then, I'll leave you with the review of last weekends livestream! Hope you enjoy, Gary

You'll be wanting to model the Sunny South Express then It was often hauled on the LBSC section by an I3 so there are some photos in the LBSCR Atlantic book by Jeremy English I have spoke to people about having the correct pattern carriages made as kits in the past, but so far this has led nowhere, perhaps more people being interested could change that, the carriages used were narrower than most LNWR stock to meet the restricted loading gauge as the train went into SECR territory Gary
