  1. America, and California especially, being rather fond of labelling seemingly anything as a carcinogen.
  2. And yet there are an awful lot of mentions, photos and even articles about it on the internet and in magazines. You can buy photos of it on ebay (not sure who would) .Would there be a "farewell" thread on here for the Haywards Heath one when it eventually goes?
  3. Exactly this - it was such a "part of the furniture" whichever museum (should have) ended up with it would have had a celebrity exhibit. I know people with industry influence tried so they obviously thought it worth it.
  4. Sadly it has gone. If there was ever something that deserved to be rescued it was this.
  5. Some of the resins available are extremely flexible and very hard to break - such as that used by Mousa - sounds like they could benefit from a material change?
  6. Is it an order for full size stuff for an A4? 🤓
  7. Dang, that factory weathering is crazy. Well done Accurascale!
  8. Presumably Rails have made it clear they aren't manufacturers to avoid upsetting any other manufacturers who they also distribute and are known to get upset about their distributers also being manufacturers. Maybe.
  9. Gostude's crackhead brother?
  10. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satiric_misspelling 😉 Closest I could find to describe the intention.
  11. I don't think it matters which method you use, the material is going to distort. I would love to try one of the GW ones to see if having the positive and negative anvil reduces the distortion compared to the LRM (and others) type. If there's no discernible difference then I would stick with the LRM type as I think it's faster to line up and drop. Where the GW deluxe one comes into its own is where there aren't half-etched holes as it has the index wheels.
  12. When was the original delivery estimates for the coaches compared to the locos? And I would assume the number of units of the coaches could be an order of magnitude more than for locos, so the number of orders to transfer over? I don't have orders of either, so just an outsider.
  13. I was beginning to think I was the only one who didn't liked the damned things. I'd buy a Sims edition 😜
  14. I'm sorry, I had to quote both of you for the comedy typos/auto-corrects. I assume WIMorrison beans connect each bar to the track outputs as opposed to Shakespeare. John-r I would suggest avoiding clipping your wife to anything electrical in the first place to avoid any serious repercussions. Your description sounds right otherwise.
  15. Rails have taken the dosh for these so can't be long now. Still chuckling over Empty to Margate 🙃
  16. Doctor, Doctor, give me the news, I've got a bad case of banger blues!
  17. Not my scene but to go with ABC for the drivetrain just screams quality (unlike the noise the box makes ;)).
  18. A smoking puddle I think? And maybe they mean whiffy?
  19. I did ask about some Stevenson kits in April 2021. I got a very quick and positive reply saying the ones I wanted were on order and would be a couple of weeks and gave a price. I replied saying that was fine and requested they let me know when in stock. I followed up a couple of times after a few weeks, then a couple of months with no response. Fortunately I found what I wanted elsewhere.
