      I couldn't agree more - as a complete beginner RMW has been a great help and source of encouragement for me.

      Yeah you think... wait till I send you the bill

  3. Earl Bathurst

    Finally got my 0 gauge mojo back, time to finish some projects :)

  4. Earl Bathurst

    I need to have a sort out and sell what i am not using and stick to 1 or 2 gauges

    1. RandyWales

      RandyWales

      Having the same thoughts....expensive time imminent in 7mm. 4mm stock has to go now.

    2. LNER4479

      LNER4479

      Gauge 1 expensive and needs lots of space. And Gauge 2? Does anyone make that stuff any more?

  5. Earl Bathurst

      I don't think the LNER got quite as far as Haverfordwest.

      I have a 7mm Saint kit waiting for the day I deem myself capable of building it to a good enough standard. Probably in a couple more years.

  9. Earl Bathurst

    1. Crisis Rail

      Crisis Rail

  11. Earl Bathurst

      Kev_Lewis

      Precisely why I'm going to the WSR gala on Friday.

  12. Earl Bathurst

      Funny, that. Some were remarking on the quality of 18.201 running at Scaleforum today.

    3. Re6/6

      Re6/6

      Indeed! Herr Honecker would have been proud to see the beast running.

    4. beast66606

      beast66606

      I can categorically state I don't run anymore.

  13. Earl Bathurst

    1. RandyWales

      RandyWales

    2. Earl Bathurst

      Earl Bathurst

  17. Earl Bathurst

    Cant decide what era to model in, do i go for sectorisation or current scene?

    1. Huw Griffiths

      Huw Griffiths

      Just say it's "modern image" - and you can leave that decision for another day.

  18. Earl Bathurst

      Heather K on " the other forum " is building one if you need any advice or info..

  19. Earl Bathurst

    Im amazed how much n gauge standards have moved up, the quality of the new tooling being produced is superb.

  20. Earl Bathurst

    Annoying when someone says they will keep something for you then sell it instead.

      Earl Bathurst - pot, kettle,black, if my experience with you is anything to go by

    3. Earl Bathurst

      Earl Bathurst

      Rob d2 never had any dealings with you. If I say that I will keep something for someone then I do unless its already sold or they change their mind and sold without any issues!!!!

    4. rob D2

      rob D2

      Er, short memory......you decided to buy something from me. Stalled forever on payment......didn't reply. Ring any bells ?

       

  21. Earl Bathurst

    1. bgman

      bgman

      Fourth year I've visited and at was the busiest by far. Still beats a drafty sports hall.

    Is tempted to add a br blue Heljan class 40 to my fleet. Would it go with the rest of my green diesels though?

  24. Earl Bathurst

    Do I buy a sound decoder for my 0 gauge Heljan or not? can't decide

    1. muddys-blues

      muddys-blues

      Ooh what loco ?

    2. Stevelewis

      Stevelewis

      I can tell you sound in the Heljan 0 Diesels does add an extra dimension, brings the loco to life, can get a bit intrusive at times BUT you have the option to reduce the Volume !!

    3. Earl Bathurst

      Earl Bathurst

      I have a western, 37 and 33 but what loco to do?

  25. Earl Bathurst
