  1. I have a birthday coming up will start making suitable hints. I like making up a small drama with groups of people like in front of the punch and judy show in the market place. It also encourages visitors to look mare closely at the layout.
  2. Waiting for their wives to finish shopping (Dart Castings) Looks like I need a new shop sign
  3. Waiting for the passengers to arrive the Model3U bus crew
  4. First of new figure acquired at Warley this one from Model3U
  5. Thanks to https://www.scalemodelscenery.co.uk/ who had a big stand at Warley this year, finally found some gates for the cottages
  6. The farmers wife finally gets some chickens to feed, just need some Geese now
  7. Thanks for prompt help. Unfortunately it is a not suitable for a 1936 layout since I have just checked Matadors where produced only in the Second World war.
  8. Well not been able to do any modelling all month, owing to tidying up the garden, a weeks grandson sitting duties. Which he thanked up for by giving me a horrendous cough. It was touch and go whether I would even make Warley. However in the end I struggled around and went to the Doctor on the following Monday when he diagnosed a case of mild pneumonia!! So after a series of antibiotics I'm just about fit enough to make it up the the railway room. Started by giving 1364 a coat of Veljo black grey to cover the black plastic.
  9. This lorry was the Hornby stand at Warley. When I inquired who supplied it, the guy on the stand didn't know, but had a quick look underneath and said Oxford Models I visited the Oxford Models stand but they couldn't help, does anyone know a source?
  10. Best of Luck, I've know about this photo for awhile, which is why I recognised the significance of the picture By the way there is a 6 sqn association who may be able to help
  11. it was quite surreal looking at those pictures of Hanaiyah because i realised the hanger in the background is probably the same one as the on he is standing in front of along with rest of 6 sqn in 1954!
  12. gosh i remember those from 1970 at RAF Changi, forget which RNZAF sqn it was ,but we used to call them supershakers.
  13. Never experienced any warping using 40 thous plasticard
  14. Spotted this on a market stall whilst on Holiday in France
  15. Finally got around to motorising the final point in the crossing, so I can now drive trains from the siding to the Gas Works without the hand of God, Haven't decided to do something about the uncoupling once the train reaches the Gas works
  16. Recently acquired Petters Ltd Van in ffont of the Petter Ghost Sign.
  17. Have a look at Rocrail, it's what I use on Barkham Green and it's free with a small donation
  18. Well now the dark evenings are drawing in and the garden has been put to bed, it's back to modelling Added lights to my bus just need some passengers and crew now
  19. The Hornby 61xx isn't out until next year so decided to purchase Oxford Dean Goods I have found it is not a very powerful loco and will only pull about 9 oil wagos plus brake van Otherwise very happy with it Just need to add crew and loco lamps Once it is our of warranty will re-paint hand rails, black plastic and replace coal.
  20. I've just brought an Oxford Dean Goods myself. I see you are running it with a short train I have found the pulling power pretty poor and the most number of wagons It can easily pull is nine oil wagons plus Goods van
