    I called in at the farm shop for some bits last week. Mistake! Half term with PYO pumpkins and dozens of kids (with unmasked parents) all over the place coughing and sneezing. Originally the shop made itself a safe environment but it just looked like they'd given up last week with signs removed etc.

    The former is an extreme and unchecked version of the latter. It's not for you to judge what our standards should be in terms of humour on such matters.

    No; just our IT department. There's another topic on the go.

    Do they have to keep their wheelie bins inside? That's what normally spoils a nice row of character terraced cottages. Love the internal downpipes and outlets. Toddled off to find the road and they're a bit more liberal a few doors along. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.5304161,-0.0494565,3a,75y,155.04h,96.79t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sasv-a7lbmPldlRVBIC7ekQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192

    No; it's an unacceptable term and (whether you think I am lecturing you I care not one scrap) it is not phraseology which is acceptable or accepted on here. You have no choice in that.

    As is coming back to the topic in case anyone has experienced anything other than has already been noted. It's being worked on.

    Sometimes you've just got to see how something works and get the chisel and fat screwdriver out. Coreless motor, twin flywheels and cardan shafts. And, yes, it's all gone back together fine and still runs like a dream.

    I've escalated that. It seems to be occasional and goes on a refresh.

    Not over the sink though.

    It's being triggered by some changes to the ad software this afternoon. I'll make those who need to take a look at it know.

    I don't have that option so I'm doing the next best thing. Access to the topic now removed.

    Please await the report rather than asking questions which give rise to speculative answers or opinions.
  14. AY Mod
    As I said... And respect.
  15. AY Mod
    Can we leave anything speculative out of any discussions please and await the final report?
  16. AY Mod
    It doesn't make him look an 'idiot'; that may be your opinion from it but I'm steadily forming my own of you based on your posts. I'd suggest piping down with some of your comments or I'll just remove you from the discussion.

    They don't have buffers. I've got one in front of me right now and over the length of the couplings it's 123mm.

    I've just taken the review sample of the Fairlie for a spin and it's like a miniature sewing machine. Really, really smooth!

    BACHMANN NARROW GAUGE – OO9 SCALE DOUBLE FAIRLIE SPECIFICATION The Bachmann Narrow Gauge Double Fairlie locomotive follows in the footsteps of the award winning Baldwin 10-12-D, Bachmann Narrow Gauge’s first OO9 scale locomotive which was released to great acclaim in 2018. Synonymous with the Ffestiniog Railway, the Double Fairlie is an icon of the Narrow Gauge world and this instantly recognisable locomotive is now available in OO9 scale for the first time. The Bachmann Narrow Gauge model incorporates a high level of detail, with tooling designed to accommodate the detail variants seen on the real locomotives in order to produce a model of the highest fidelity, which is brought to life by the exquisite livery application that combines Ffestiniog Railway-specification colours with authentic lining, crests and plates. The precision moulded bodies are adorned with numerous individual components, including the real brass handrails and the metal tank filler cap rings, along with fine mouldings for parts such as the steam fountain, cab controls and tallow cups. The mechanism is similarly impressive with a twin shaft coreless motor, fitted with twin flywheels, driving both bogies, all-wheel electrical pick up and separate metal bearings fitted to each axle. Provision for DCC is a given and the model incorporates a Next18 DCC decoder socket, easily accessed via a removable panel on the underside of the model, plus pre-fitted speakers on all versions – or why not opt for a SOUND FITTED model and really bring your layout to life. MECHANISM:  Coreless, twin shaft motor with two flywheels providing drive to both bogies  Electrical pickup from all wheels  Separate metal bearings fitted to each axle  Diecast metal running plate  Diecast metal chassis block and bogie towers  Diecast metal gearboxes, with gearing arranged for prototypical running speeds and haulage capabilities  9mm (OO9 narrow gauge) wheels to NEM310 standards with authentic profile and detailing  Coupling pockets to NEM355 standards fitted to each bogie, into which a standard OO9 coupling hook assembly is fitted  Designed to operate on curves of first radius (228.6mm) or greater DETAILING:  Highly detailed and decorated cab interior including separately fitted regulators and gauge frames  Separately applied details including Tallow Cup Lubricators, Steam Fountain, Sand Pots with turned brass detail (where applicable), Smokebox Dart/Wheel, Vacuum Pipework (where applicable), Brass Handrails and metal Tank Filler Cap Rings.  Each model supplied with a set of authentically decorated etched name plates DCC:  Next18 DCC decoder interface  Easy-access DCC decoder socket located behind removable panel on underside of model SOUND:  Speaker installed in all models for optimum sound reproduction  Zimo MX659N18 DCC Sound Decoder fitted to SOUND FITTED versions  Sound files produced specifically for the Bachmann Narrow Gauge Double Fairlie using recordings from real locomotives  SOUND FITTED models operate on DCC and Analogue control as supplied LIVERY APPLICATION:  Authentic liveries applied to all models  Multiple paint applications employed on each model using Ffestiniog Railway specification colours  Logos, numerals and text added as appropriate using multi-stage tampo printing incorporating authentic typefaces, logos, crests and colours 391-100 OO9 Ffestiniog Railway Double Fairlie 'Merddin Emrys' FR Lined Green £234.95 391-100SF OO9 Ffestiniog Railway Double Fairlie 'Merddin Emrys' FR Lined Green £334.95 391-102 OO9 Ffestiniog Railway Double Fairlie 'Earl of Merioneth’ FR Lined Green £234.95 391-102SF OO9 Ffestiniog Railway Double Fairlie 'Earl of Merioneth’ FR Lined Green £334.95 391-103 OO9 Ffestiniog Rly Double Fairlie 'Livingston Thompson' FR Lined Brick Red £234.95 391-103SF OO9 Ffestiniog Rly Double Fairlie 'Livingston Thompson' FR Lined Brick Red £334.95

    NEW PRODUCTS FOR WINTER 2021 UNVEILED BY BACHMANN EUROPE Bachmann Europe Plc today showcased a host of new products in N, OO, OO9 and O scale with the launch of the Winter British Railway Announcements. Amongst the new items, which are all due to hit Bachmann stockists’ shelves over the next three months, there were several surprises alongside some much-requested models like the DCC ready N scale diesel shunters and further Class 90s from Bachmann Branchline. Bachmann Narrow Gauge has reaffirmed its position as a leading name in British-outline OO9 scale with the introduction of the iconic Ffestiniog Railway Double Fairlie as its next OO9 locomotive. The most recognisable narrow gauge locomotive of them all, the Bachmann Narrow Gauge Double Fairlie captures the unique beauty of the prototype in miniature. Three models will be available which incorporate locomotive- and era-specific details, completed by the exquisite livery application using Ffestiniog Railway-specification colours along with authentic crests and symbols. The high specification chassis incorporates a coreless motor with twin flywheels driving both bogies, all-wheel pick up, separate metal bearings on each axle and a Next18 DCC decoder socket with pre-fitted speaker. The three models will be available this November in standard or SOUND FITTED format. New Class 03 and 04 Diesel Shunters were revealed for the Graham Farish N scale range, and for the first time these are equipped with a DCC decoder socket. In order to fit within the minute space inside the models, Bachmann also published details of a new DCC decoder – the 6 Pin Micro DCC Loco-Decoder (36-571) – which is the perfect fit for the new Class 03 and Class 04s. Like other Bachmann DCC decoders, this new decoder also includes the Brake Button function. In addition, the Class 150/1 Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) appears in BR Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive livery for the first time, along with a SOUND FITTED version of the Class 101 DMU in the iconic BR Green ‘Speed Whiskers’ livery. In OO scale the Bachmann Branchline Class 90 returns by popular demand, and four new liveries adorn this stunning model. Combining a highly accurate and detailed body shell with an authentic chassis and bogies – each featuring a wealth of separately fitted detail – the Bachmann Branchline Class 90 also incorporates authentic lighting and a finely-rendered Pantograph which can be raised or lowered via the built-in servo motor when operated on DCC. SOUND FITTED versions of each are also available which, like all Bachmann SOUND FITTED models, can be enjoyed on both DCC and Analogue control. For those wishing to fit a DCC decoder to a standard model, a new decoder configured specifically for these new Class 90s has been announced (36-569A). Two new Class 150 DMUs also appear, including the Class 150/2 which features the windows in the cab-end corridor doors, as fitted to the units when first built, for the first time. New from EFE Rail this Winter is a range of OO scale SPA and SEA Wagons, the latter featuring the distinctive hood, and no fewer than 13 models will be available in a variety of liveries. The Scenecraft range is expanded with the addition of several seaside-themed items, including two Holiday Coaches, a seaside Café and Lifeguards Hut, helping consumers reminisce about summer holidays of days gone by. Numerous Low Relief models return to the range by popular demand, along with the Coach Washing Plant, while in O scale the Sectional Lineside Hut is available once again. N scale additions include the Parachute Water Tower and Fuelling Pump House, plus several handy accessories like the Lineside Cabinets and Small Kiosk. Like every Scenecraft model, these new items are all highly detailed and hand decorated making them the perfect choice to add instant impact and realism to any layout or diorama. To coincide with the launch of the Bachmann Narrow Gauge Double Fairlie, the Bachmann Collectors Club announced its next Exclusive model and its first in OO9 scale – Ffestiniog Railway Double Fairlie 'David lloyd George' in Ffestiniog Railway Lined Red livery. To cater for the growing number of OO9 scale consumers, a new OO9 Scale Membership option is also now available which provides the same extensive benefits that are enjoyed by all Club members. Full details of the new items for Winter 2021 can be found in the British Railway Announcements Catalogue, produced as part of the Bachmann Times and available exclusively to members of the Bachmann Collectors Club. In addition to the new items unveiled today, many other products are scheduled to arrive during the next three months and projected release dates for many Bachmann products can be found at www.bachmann.co.uk.
