  1. An unlined green version which if I remember was taken either at Crewe or Chester, but I stand to be corrected, memory failure! Chas
  2. If it helps, 46230 definitely ran with an ex streamlined tender, and if I remember was the tender originally allocated to 46247. The only photo evidence I have seen shows from ezly crest BR days, so can't be sure that it carried the ex streamline tender in LMS days. Chas
  3. Just a little ambiguous, I think. Is it just the O gauge range they don't plan to manufacture or the OO ones as well? Chas
  4. Not too sure about the offset corridor connections not having a guard's compartment - the attached two photos, one prototype, one model show the last TPO vehicle to have guards duckets and these were definitely branded as Royal Mail, I do agree that this vehicle has been difficult to identify as to origin or Diagram. Chas
  5. A small request for help, if I may, David has based his station building on Burley in Wharfedale and we could do with any photos of the station building and, even better, any architectural plans of the building. We already have the, rather poor quality, pictures that show up on a Google or Byng search so anything else would help. Thanks in advance.

    Now that the lights are up, a chance to show another short video, a Duchess hauls a Crewe - Perth.

    Another piece of work, the layout lighting has been done, this will help when further detailing work is to be done, getting there!
  8. AS far as I am aware (but I stand to be corrected) the only A2's to have received a yellow stripe were 60527 and 60535, which were latterly allocated to Polmadie and hence could appear on the WCML (But most unlikely south of Crewe!) Chas
  9. Any chance of a layout and trade stand list, please
  10. Tony, You are absolutely correct of course, old age tends to create mix ups like this! I've always mixed up my "K's" ! It was the number series which threw me. The V4 was the ECJM/ABS kit aand is shown below. Chas
  11. Attached is a photo of the K1/1 built from the ABS/ECJS kit, Interesting you have correctly chosen the only straight footplate example. Kits for this loco do appear on ebay from time to time, but would not have the straight footplate. Chas
  12. Jidenco J88, it's ok and it was my first attempt at an etched kit (didn't know any better!) As stated, better than the one I didn't have! Chas
  13. Are the 1 metre lengths supplied straight or as a coil which would be a pain to straighten for rodding?
  14. On the assumption that the site reported by AVG is, in fact, safe, which I believe Andy has confirmed, you can put it as an exception in AVG and the warning no longer appears. Andy, please confirm again that the advert site is safe according to your own techies.
  15. Having ordered a new one some time ago, any update on progress would be nice.

    Just another wee short video featuring a "special" Done for the boys at the club, as they know what this means! For everyone else it shows the advancement of the scenic work (which has now progressed further, including the start of work on the station buildings). Chas Jones Goods from a DJH kit, just beat Rapido to it!
  17. And here is one, D350 (I think - Gratspool colour film and late i the day, sorry!) At Uddingston on it's way to be reversed at Newton. Chas
  18. Or for LB and other such layouts with 3ft minimum radius would it be possible to have the coaches even more close coupled? Chas
  19. Not aware of any 33's reaching Uddingston, they came off at York to be replaced by a York class 40 ( became the only way to see a 50A class 40 in the West of Scotland) I used to wait until nearly dark on Uddingston station to see them.
  20. I am sure Markits do 3mm bearings which are a fit for most kit chassis. I am also reasonably sure that all Hornby locos use 3mm axles and High Level will supply gear boxes with a 3mm final drive gear - so nothing to stop us! Chas
  21. Probably mentioned before, the tablet catcher 21/29's promised ages ago!
  22. Thanks for that, and tend to agree about high speed of these. High Level do do a 1mm shaft worm for their gearboxes, which may help. Any ideas on the value of resistors?? I quite enjoy experimenting with such things! Just to add, as the shafts on these motors tend to be too short, you can buy brass tube with an internal dia. of 1mm and an external dia. of 2mm which can extend the shaft and fit more standard 2mm worms.
