    What's the betting all those straight-out-the-box wagons have the same running number !
  2. Wickham Green too
    While I do, indeed, live in the south, I would have absolutely no use for a 450 ( or 444 ) either ..... my money would be on Electrostars ........................... though not REAL money, of course, as they're far too modern for my layout !
  3. Wickham Green too
    Buffer issues have been discussed ad-nauseam up-thread ............ they're moulded integral to the headstock so if you wish to add packing I think it's up to you !

    Hmmmm ? .............................. not the largest of classes nor operating over a particularly enormous area - and not having a huge range of livery options, I have my doubts.

    .... if you wish to be nightmared !! 💀

    Ditto ....... my banana train should arrive lunchtime tomorrow ! ( it did )
  7. Wickham Green too
    Actually, looking at the passenger in the first image, it might have been a MILK Bar !
  8. Wickham Green too
    Nothing left on the current aerial views. ☹️
  9. Wickham Green too
    That is a possibility - but with no gangway door and inward-opening passenger doors ( without droplights ) that wouldn't be the safest place to linger !

    As round-section tiebars, I'll use wire as I did with my SECR Open vac-fit conversion. ( etched flat tiebars are available from Cambrian )

    The window spacing of the All-Steel shouts 'First' to me - it's far tighter on the 'K' class. Operationally, we have a main line propelling move without any specific accommodation for the Guard ....... fully vac. braked so fine from that point of view but is the chap who's nominally in charge of the train travelling on the - very comfortable - cushions or is he slumming it on the footplate !

    Looking very unloved ............ how can a BAR car be unloved ??!? ☹️
  13. Wickham Green too
    A tricky bit of moulding to get a suitably thin base - and a consistently good fit !
  14. Wickham Green too
    There's a brief glimpse of the building at the start of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1i5VIWp7HQ ...... the bridge certainly looks right.

    Not just bendy - but bent on my O15 ....... did wonder if the plastic packaging had pushed them upwards - but I don't think so.
  16. Wickham Green too
    .... but will the reassembly instructions make any more sense ??!?
  17. Wickham Green too
    Off hand I don't think any of those locomotives operated on the Longmoor Military Railway when built .............. though I'm willing to be corrected on that..
  18. Wickham Green too
    They probably realise that not all railway modellers hold a Firearms License !
  19. Wickham Green too
    I don't expect a serious gap problem with the three-links when I get round to them !
  20. Wickham Green too
    At first sight we've got two identical Kitchen Cars with the kitchen ends coupled ............ but the all-steel vehicle leading will be a Kitchen First and the wooden-bodied one a Kitchen Third so positioning is probably important.
  21. Wickham Green too
    ... and we'll all happily watch the video you post on the appropriate 'HOP 21 by Accurascale' thread ! 😊
  22. Wickham Green too
    Recess for the angle cranks transferring lateral to longitudinal motion ?
  23. Wickham Green too
    I don't think those are 08 wheels - firstly they look less than 4'6'' and the crank shouldn't be waisted ............. industrial loco of some sort ?
  24. Wickham Green too
    Seems rather pointless having it there with no words of explanation. First though was that it was from a preserved loco where the smokebox has been replaced ......... but you'd expect the fittings to be transferred ! - does it have a tube plate or has it been blanked off ?
  25. Wickham Green too
    Rather depends whether you consider moulded-on door & grab handles to be shabby, I suppose ??!? ( no hurry as far as I'm concerned - unless I have a sudden urge to change my modelling period )
