I don't suppose we could get back to the main subject  ? 

There sre plenty of threads regarding collecting. 

So many inaccuracies.  Normally go to great lengths to get it right but this was poor.  Still a great programme though.

Couldn't resist. From strong winds in Cornwall yesterday.

Use masking tape - you can get it from most shops that sell modelling equipment, and it's essential for neatness.

It's just a rough visual experiment . The shade of chocolate is wrong as it looks more like The Northern Belle !

Waiting for someone to do one in Inter City .... !

A work in progress.  Surprised I have not seen this done before. Chocolate and cream Blue Pullman. 

4 June.

The Hornby 101 was introduced in 1978 and currently runs to 38 livery variations publicly released not including different running numbers, catalogue numbers or paint finishes.  Plus one special publicity model.

Did once collect them all but then sold the lot. Fun ...!

Somebody needs retraining.

Cheers Mr Trevithick. 

This one just went for a unprecedented amount !

Triang TT. T25...... !!!

To be accurate, in real life the maroon varied on coach to coach due to weathering etc.

Just going to leave this here.

Not so much a classic car as a classic camper. 14k on fb group  , only 8k  vehicles in UK.

Simple question really.  Which model can pull the most ?  From the first 1952 models to present day.  On the flat be it 9" or 10" or longer coaches or any type of wagon and any type of axle or wheel.  Any make of track, Just to compliment the best model thread.

Back in the day I had a pair of Hymeks with type 3 motors that could pull everything both myself and friend had !  I know things have come along way since especially with the Dublo Duchess power to weight etc. Just curious as to how things have progressed ...  .

Today's update.

Ahh remember now !
