      Personal experience suggests that forums get far more attention than blogs ;)

      I have in the past put a forum for the layout but never had any responce to questions. Ill try one again i think

      Yes. The walk under a castle class loco is worth it! The layout list looks really good too. I'm very much looking forward to tomorrow.

      Denmark is probably a bit far. If you wanted to see Hungerford it was in one of the magazines I saw in Smith's today whilst picking up a MRJ.

      Oh dear...another victim of the Butatone fumes...... (or is it a solder jobby?)

    2. Earl Bathurst

      Earl Bathurst

      Its a solder job. Big learning curve at the moment :)

    It really annoys me when you get a comment like this from small minded people. Why do you play trains thats for kids!! (this type of comment really annoys me)

    1. Etched Pixels

      Etched Pixels

      They probably play football, which is for kids with emotional control problems 8)

    Thats great Richard Thanks for that, i was thinking it would have been a bigger fiddle yard than that what you got, but goes to show that you dont need a big fiddle yard to have plenty of movement on the layout. Thanks Scott
  14. Earl Bathurst

      Make a micro layout, set somewhere different to what you were working on? What about an RM web module for next members day?
