      Excellent! Admire the C&L, have opted for Peco. Looking forward to the 26 thread

    4. bcnPete

      bcnPete

      Was tempted by Peco...but C+L looks fun...besides, making a turnout in 7mm will help me make them better in 2mm...

  14. my C+L 7mm turnout templates have arrived...blimey...they are huge :-O

      Not nice in any scale when this happens, especially with good quality models, must be devastating. Sorry to learn it's happened to you. Hope in a day or so you can look at them with a repairable view point.

      Thanks all for your kind comments - I will look at them later today...it was one of those suitcase moments where you pick up the handle, and all the contents fall out sideways! - Next time I will make sure the lid is properly secured...

      You can't solve a debt crisis by borrowing more than you can pay back - Spain should call a halt and solve its own problems, not those imposed by the eurozone

      Well said Ron!
