Need to produce a large run of JNA / MMA now.....

Wow. Did not expect this at all. Looks amazing. Well done Cav and Alex. I'm sure one or two will find their way onto my trainset.

Dover Castle always worth a visit Jim. Whilst in Dover, walk around Drop Redoubt Fort too. Really impressive. Worth checking if there's an open day there.

Indeed. Cue the Electrostar. It's only 4 cars max.

Ooo lovely, a 73/9 - perfect!

For me, a centre coach for the class 205 DEMU Thumper would be excellent. In NSE of course.

Great photos Darius. What camera are you using?

I'd be pleased if Accurascale announce a CS/GBRf Class 73/9 at Modelrail Scotland in February.....

I think I've fallen into that trap too.

Alternatively, there's the Accurascale factor. Many modellers will buy them because they've been made. Those that know what they are, know, and will want them. Additionally they're available in red, faded red, weathered faded red, etc.

Man these TPE mk5's are the business! Just stunning. Push and pull around my set-track curves with gangways touching on the straights.

My Dapol MRA wagons derailed on every point and every curve when I first got them. Checked back to backs with a gauge and they nearly all needed adjusting. Some too tight, some too big. Still derailed after that. Swopped the wheelsets for new Hornby 12mm disc wagon wheels, run perfect now! With couplings replaced with Hunt magnetic ones obviously.

If we're suggesting stuff..... (probably mentioned these before, but its been a while.) IHA bogie steel carrier, at least 2 different diagrams, a couple of liveries. MLA bogie ballast carrier in yellow and red. KWA Warwell. I know Hattons and Oxford have attempted them, but they're not very good, and out of stock now. Hattons had ho scale bogies and lacked the widened decks. All 3 wagons would sell in multiples.

Done. Thanks Andy

The wagons in Danny's photo above are Ospreys, which are Salmons converted to carry 60 ft track panels without the need for so much strapping down, by the addition of robust stanchions at each end and in the middle. Mick (New Bryford) noted recently that some Ospreys are now being converted back to Salmon. Cambrian make an excellent kit of the Salmon, which can be converted to Osprey with 3D printed parts. Flangeway make a RTR Salmon, which has had some length issues in 1st batch, now resolved, although the modern versions of the wagon are not yet available.

Fair enough Gareth.

That's brilliant thanks Mark! Cradles look ok too.

You're right Rob. I don't think there's a 1/76 th scale Warrior currently available. I have some of the diecast ones, but at 1/72nd they are too big. I've tried to build the etched Warrior cradle but it defeated me sadly.

Hi Gareth. When you do the rest of the CVR(T) range e.g. Sultan, Samaritan, would you be able to do Scimitar 2 ( which is stretched new build Spartan chassis, with Scimitar turret - one for the Warwells) Cheers

Great photo

Nice kettle.

No, there's no need for any more steam....at all.😉

Suberb James. There's a couple of photos in another thread, freight in the Southeast, of a short rake of oca's top and tailed with 66's. I think they are loaded with scrap recovered signal components.

A few lovely green 37's too.

A pity Hornby have not released a 66, or 67 in Platinum Jubilee livery. I was sort of expecting them to do that. I'd have definately had a full fat 67 in that livery, would probably have bought the railroad 67 version too, and even the 66 despite it's lack of lights and other issues. Would have marked the event nicely. IMHO, they would sell out, just like the Captain Tom class 66.
