Hi Ho Silver Lining - Jeff Beck

Higher Ground - Stevie Wonder

Time Is On My Side - The Stones

Sorry! It's Just George!

What Is Life - The Beatles

On Together TV they are showing extended repeats of these. A total hoot given his commentary. Give it a go. Terry

When a new series starts we just set it to record series. Terry

I have a couple of dozen tins of Humbrol on a shelf. All fine. Not this one! Terry

Tried stirring my Humbrol matt white with an old screwdriver. No residue on the bottom, still the same result. Won't be buying Humbrol again. Terry

Thanks John, I'll have another go tomorrow! Terry

I bought a couple of tins of Humbrol at the Gauge 0 Guild exhibition at Kempton Park. Just opened a matt white. After 10 minutes stirring it is a watery pale yellow gunge. Ho hum ...... Terry

Rather surprised that there have been no posts regarding the new series. Do we all just take this for granted as being good viewing now? Terry

19mm as a compromise? I'll get my coat .... Terry

Might it be easier to ballasts before putting in the platforms? Terry

Don't know if it's been posted before. Talking Pictures tonight had an episode of Dial 999 called Night Mail which has lots of railway footage. Terry

I think there was certainly mixed gauge track there but I don't think GW trains ever used them. Terry

As I've often had a beer in the Battle of Trafalgar ..... Terry

Happy April 1st!

Could the concourse/station building fascia be a detachable extra board? It seems a shame to lose that glorious slice of Edwardia! Terry

If you can do without the extra 9" of track then I suggest the concourse area could look really great and help the place the layout at your chosen period, people in appropriate fashion, street and station furniture, advertising boards etc. Think of the photos of Brighton and other termini of the time. Looking good. Terry

Unfortunately to those who know the history of Triang-Rovex, Hornby Dublo and the rest of the story its a bit like a historian watching a 'popular' TV history programme and wincing at some of the faults or omissions. We need to remember that the target audience doesn't really care and that it makes little difference to their enjoyment or otherwise of the programme. The Architecture of the Railways is a different animal as it has no trade axe to grind and is simply an enthusiastic expert sharing his passion in a most watchable fashion. We're probably lucky to have both. Terry

Just about to turn the light out. Wine has been taken so no image attached. Elton John, Tumbleweed Connection. Photo taken at Sheffield Park. Terry

Well there are lots of references to angels in Genesis!

I take the point that the correct livery can do much to make these coaches look genuine. To be fair, if I was modelling in 4mm scale I might have been tempted, but then again as modeller of the Southern there are kit options. Terry
