    Nick, what do you intend to do with the loco when you’ve finished it? It is turning into a museum showcase standard model. Tim T

    Johnster, very few bogie suppliers include bearings, expecting the purchaser to have these to hand. I suspect this is a throwback to when Keen/Maygib and Gibson wheels came with bearings. Also they must be top hat ones. HTH Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM

    Andy, it is a shame that you have been moulded in S Scale and not 4mm/ft! Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon im EM

    Clive, no you are not alone as I have never been nor am I likely to being a poor pensioner shielding his loot from HMRC clutches (legally). However whilst I was employed one of my employers sent me to Hong Kong many times, Bangladesh, Thailand, South Africa, Mocambique and Eire. I also managed to visit California and Canada enroute from Hong Kong effectively circumnavigating the globe. Tim T

    Is it my failing eyesight or are both of the locos coming up from St Davids carrying headcode discs?How very unusual. Tim T

    I’m afraid that most of my boxes end up in recycling. Without them, together with the acompanying plastic, they takeup half the volume! I don’t sell them as I can’t be bothered with all the hassle of online auction sites. Others obviously have more patience Tim T

    Having now seen the layout in the flesh I’m mightily impressed! Until you see it you don’t realise just how compact it is. Very well executed Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM

    Mr Mortimore, Sir, if you’re modelling an ex GN/L&Y joint station why do you want an ex NER loco? Puzzled of Calne

    Clive, not only Cornwall. Didn’t the last blue one end up on freight duties in South Wales? Tim T

    Is that a veggie haggis I see before my eyes?We actually prefer the veggie version to the “real” one btw Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM

    Hers won’t have anywhere near the quantity of chemcals that yours will have, neither wil it have the taste! Tim T (Edited for iPad typos)

    A “stick” is a simple single track “fiddle yard” that allows you to represent the rest of the railway world off stage, so to speak. Most micro layouts simply do not have any provision for changing over stock in the scenicked area. HTH Tim T

    Brian, apologies if the answer iselsewhere on this thread but what are the origins of the pit buildings? Tim T Modelling Cwm Cynon in EM
