  1. That's it, simple as that; you make it sound as though there is substantial manipulation. There isn't. 🙄
  2. Click on the three horizontal lines at the top right and sign in.
  3. They are the standard by which I judge other pork pies. Their sausage rolls and pasties are too greasy though.
  4. I'll have to do some digging when I'm back on a big pc if the links can't be posted.
  5. No PM as yet. Maybe sent to my old a/c. It's okay to post the links here.
  6. The page address from the bar at the top of your browser for each topic please Jamie.
  7. If you let me have the URLs I can unarchive them for you no problem.
  8. It's worth re-reading the whole topic to evaluate that point of view.

  11. In N scale the launch of a brand-new Class 90 Electric Locomotive marks a major milestone for Graham Farish – this being the first all-new tooling project announced by Graham Farish via Bachmann’s quarterly British Railway Announcements. Much-requested by consumers following the release of the highly acclaimed Bachmann Branchline OO scale model, the new N scale models will debut at The International N Gauge Show in September, with delivery due by the end of 2022. Five models will be available initially, each with the option of SOUND FITTED, and every Graham Farish Class 90 will feature a coreless motor, all-wheel pick up and all-wheel drive, a Next18 DCC decoder socket, a pre-fitted speaker, directional lights, cab lights when used on DCC, and a poseable pantograph. Topic for Farish Class 90 here - Alongside the Class 90, Graham Farish also announced that the Midland Railway Class 3835 (4F) has been upgraded to feature a Next18 DCC decoder socket and pre-fitted speaker; these enhancements will benefit the three models due for release this Autumn and allow the production of the three SOUND FITTED models announced today. Following the recent celebrations of 50 years of N scale models from Graham Farish and with the naming of a GB Railfreight Class 60 locomotive to mark this occasion, a special 50th Anniversary Collectors Pack featuring this locomotive has been announced. Alongside the model of Class 60 No. 60002 ‘Graham Farish 50th Anniversary’ – which will also be available with SOUND FITTED – each pack includes a commemorative nameplate, pin badge, £35 Bachmann Collectors Club voucher and a certificate of authenticity, all of which is presented in a bespoke wooden box. A second round of N scale Sales Area Exclusive models was also announced, this time featuring a quartet of Class 08 Diesel Shunters utilising the new high-spec 08 from Graham Farish and including SOUND FITTED options.

GRAHAM FARISH N SCALE CLASS 90 SPECIFICATION The all-new Class 90 is a revelation for the Graham Farish range, marking the dawn of a new era for N scale Electric Locomotives.

Those good looks are complemented by an impressive technical specification which includes a coreless motor with twin flywheels, all wheel drive and all wheel pickup, directional lights and cab lights, a pre-fitted speaker and Next18 DCC interface. Each model is also available with SOUND FITTED for operation on both Analogue and DCC with authentic sound effects straight out of the box.

  13. THE NEW MODELS KEEP ROLLING FROM BACHMANN COLLECTORS CLUB THIS AUTUMN Following a busy period of new releases from the Bachmann Collectors Club, three further Club-exclusive models were today unveiled during Bachmann Europe’s Autumn 2022 British Railway Announcements. In N scale the Graham Farish Class 101 three-car DMU has been produced in the bold orange and black livery of Strathclyde Transport for the first time. This Bachmann Collectors Club Limited Edition model is available in both standard format and with SOUND FITTED – the latter being pre-fitted with two Zimo DCC decoders, one sound and one non-sound decoder to operate the lights in the driving trailer vehicle. Like all SOUND FITTED models, this too will operate and play sounds on analogue control as well as DCC straight out of the box. The standard model is priced at £274.95 whilst the SOUND FITTED version costs £374.95. After the launch of the OO scale JPA Bogie Cement Wagons as Club-exclusive models earlier this year, the IPA Double Deck Car Transporter Twins are also now available exclusively from the Bachmann Collectors Club. First released by Bachmann Branchline, these models feature an unprecedented level of detail and decoration, comprising hundreds of separate parts and with liveries that feature countless logos and print applications. The long and intricate production process for these hand assembled models now means that, like the JPAs, the IPAs are expensive wagons to produce, so much so that to proceed with a further production run to be sold by our valued retail partners would not be commercially viable due to the high retail price that would result from the increased costs involved. Instead, by offering these beautiful models directly to Bachmann Collectors Club members, we are once again able to deliver this highly desirable product whilst ensuring it remains attainable by our cherished Club members. The Car Transporter Wagons are supplied in pairs and are now available in pristine STVA Grey, at a price of £139.95 per pack, or Weathered STVA Red livery which costs £149.95 per pack. These new items join the two models launched in June at the Bachmann Collectors Club’s Practically Perfect Sale – the N scale Class 37 No. 37501 ‘Teesside Steelmaster’ in its eyecatching light blue livery and the OO scale BR Mk2F Refurbished DBSO in DRS livery. Furthermore, a Bachmann Collectors Club limited edition version of the all-new Branchline Class 37 was revealed last month to coincide with the launch of the new 37, depicting Class 37/4 No. 37422 ‘Cardiff Canton’ in the beautiful EWS livery, this model is offered in standard, SOUND FITTED and SOUND FITTED DELUXE format. All of these items are in stock now and ready to ready to purchase. Bachmann Collectors Club members can place their orders online via www.bachmann-collectorsclub.co.uk. New members can also join online and purchase from the growing range of Club exclusive models straight away. Orders and membership enquiries can also be made by telephone on 01455 245565.
  14. NEW MODELS GALORE IN BACHMANN EUROPE’S AUTUMN 2022 BRITISH RAILWAY ANNOUNCEMENTS Bachmann Europe Plc today unveiled its Autumn 2022 British Railway Announcements headlined by new tooling projects in both N and OO scale. Less than two weeks since the surprise announcement of the all-new Bachmann Branchline OO scale Class 37 during the DEMU Showcase event, details of the first batch of new Class 37s to be released this Autumn were also confirmed today. Starting with the new OO scale Class 37 and four further models will be released in addition to No. 37430 ‘Cwmbran’ which is already available; today’s announcements depict two Class 37/0s and two further Class 37/4s – all are available in Bachmann’s award-winning SOUND FITTED DELUXE format in addition to the standard and SOUND FITTED options. Aside from the new 37s, further new tooling from Bachmann Branchline comes in the form of the SE&CR 25 Ton Dance Hall Brake Van. These imposing vehicles are often asked for and now appear in OO scale for the first time, complementing other SE&CR prototypes that can be found in the Bachmann Branchline range such as the C Class Steam Locomotive and Birdcage Coaches. The BR Mk2F Refurbished Driving Brake Second Opens have been in high demand since their release earlier this year, and further versions have been announced in the liveries of BR InterCity (Swallow) and Network Rail. In N scale the launch of a brand-new Class 90 Electric Locomotive marks a major milestone for Graham Farish – this being the first all-new tooling project announced by Graham Farish via Bachmann’s quarterly British Railway Announcements. Much-requested by consumers following the release of the highly acclaimed Bachmann Branchline OO scale model, the new N scale models will debut at The International N Gauge Show in September, with delivery due by the end of 2022. Five models will be available initially, each with the option of SOUND FITTED, and every Graham Farish Class 90 will feature a coreless motor, all-wheel pick up and all-wheel drive, a Next18 DCC decoder socket, a pre-fitted speaker, directional lights, cab lights when used on DCC, and a poseable pantograph.

Following the recent celebrations of 50 years of N scale models from Graham Farish and with the naming of a GB Railfreight Class 60 locomotive to mark this occasion, a special 50th Anniversary Collectors Pack featuring this locomotive has been announced. Alongside the model of Class 60 No. 60002 ‘Graham Farish 50th Anniversary’ – which will also be available with SOUND FITTED – each pack includes a commemorative nameplate, pin badge, £35 Bachmann Collectors Club voucher and a certificate of authenticity, all of which is presented in a bespoke wooden box. A second round of N scale Sales Area Exclusive models was also announced, this time featuring a quartet of Class 08 Diesel Shunters utilising the new high-spec 08 from Graham Farish and including SOUND FITTED options. Away from the rails and there were new models announced for Bachmann’s Scenecraft range too. These finely detailed, hand painted buildings and accessories are ready to place on any layout or diorama and the new additions include models in N, OO and O scale. Notably in O scale, it is now possible to model a convincing diesel depot scene using the new Diesel Fuelling Point, Fuelling Point Pump House, Fuel Storage Tank and Office Block – the latter being ideally suited to use as a depot mess room among other applications. In OO scale there is a signalling theme this Autumn with the Signalman’s Token Platform, Brick & Timber Signal Box and Air Raid Protection (ARP) Signal Box amongst the new items, whilst the N scale range benefits from several warehouse/industrial buildings and a trio of different houses ranging from the quintessential Rural Workers Cottages to the austere Prefabricated House. Like all Bachmann products, these new items can only be purchased from Bachmann stockists and with several items already in stock, the first new items will arrive with stockists later this month.

  15. This Accurathrash stuff is getting a bit expensive - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174945741665?hash=item28bb942b61:g:J44AAOSw3uxfaFHS
  16. http://www.phd-design-etchings.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=25_28_63&product_id=71 Or you could just create your own with the addition of staples.
  17. Glad you're sorted Ray, I wasn't sure if it would work ok but it has
  18. I just wanted to let things settle Ray but, yes, I think it's the time to do that. I'll be interested to see what happens when you do step 2 (Go to the Integration page - http://www.rmweb.uk/rmweb-integration.php and login with your World of Railways account and RMweb account and this should automatically reconcile the permissions so you get your extras as soon as you've signed in.) as it'll be the first one I'll have seen going in the reverse direction. If there are any glitches I'll get them sorted for you Ray.
  19. As pies to be avoided surfaced by invoking the Fray Bentos name (the same should apply to Pukka) for those not familiar with North Staffs and Cheshire another name to avoid is... It's probably still the original pie because no sane person would eat one without thinking of cat sick, with lumps.
  20. I dunno; you're leaving the door open for tarts, flans and swirls and stuff - before you know it those bottomless 'pies' have found their way in and lowered the tone. I'd say pies consumed after dinner or in the afternoon are fair game; at least they're honest over what they are (and you can't beat a good apple and blackberry).
  21. A local store, sadly now closed due to the objection to cooking smells (possibly a change of use issue) by a new tenant above the shop even though they'd been doing so for three years, made some fantastic products including roast chicken or beef dinners in a pie. Genius. Of course they have lids on when you buy them.
  22. Plenty of I-Spy points for tinted windscreen spotters in there Chris!
