    Hi 45125, I have a book titled, "Looking back at class 24 and 25 locomotives" that shews just what you have described and in some cases where the patch repainting displays two completely separate shades of paint to that of the original making a two tone green livery a four tone green livery. Gibbo.

    Hi Martin, The DC Kits 101 is a tricky kit to build as getting the sides, ends and the roof to line up is quite difficult for unlike the other kits where the gutter makes assembly much easier. Gibbo.

    Hi Esmedune, The crane in your photograph is one of three built for the LMS in 1931. They were originally rated at 36 tons but later uprated to 50 tons. The crab and the stokes bogies are similar enough however the carriage has differing wheel base centres and the LMS crane has three sets of propping girders to the two sets, also differently placed, of the LNER/WD crane made by Hornby Dublo. I shall send you a PM with some drawings. Gibbo.

    Hi Folks, Luis Elizondo is a rank amateur, you need to look up Bon Lazar for the very best in top quality American nonsense: I had a good laugh at this one as well: Enjoy, Gibbo.

    Hi Stephen, Would that be in the objective, subjective or representative states of existential conscious awareness or indeed any combination thereof ? Was Marvin a precursor of transhumanism, I wonder ? Gibbo.

    Hi Mike, When driving my [white] van I talk to myself on the basis that I'm the only one I can get any sense out of, even when there is actually someone else in the van. I have no choice but to talk to myself when I'm on my motorbike, although only by way of using the voices in my head, because steaming up the visor would be, for no other reason, total lunacy ! Gibbo.

    Hi Mike, The thing is, the most advanced instrument I have possession of is my body and yet no instruction manual required, funny old world. Gibbo.

    Hi Folks, It seems to me that all these overly complicated controls that are fitted to cars require some sort of signage, perhaps even an arrow on the dash board pointing to the side of the road that you are supposed to diving along. Gibbo.

    Hi Colin, I have nearly started two railbusses from Hornby 142's and some Peco Leyland National bus kits. I might finish them off one day. I have quite of few photographs of this contraption also. Gibbo.

    So what exactly are those red blobs ?

    Hi Tony, With a fancy drilling attachment and a three fluted bit: Alternatively you could brooch the hole. Gibbo.

    Hi Mike, No its me as well, so that is two of us that may well be called smarty ares, miserable or tight by those that can't think for themselves and spend money on wasteful products. Strange old world we live in. Gibbo

    Hi Paul, It is a procedure that works a treat and really ought to be more widely used, business is indeed business when conducted in a correct and proper fashion ! Gibbo.

    Hi Clive, I would have sent them a bill for correcting their poorly prepared paperwork ! Gibbo.

    Hi Rodent, I have posted this previously but one of these is required: Gibbo.

    Hi Clive, You're Not Alone ! Gibbo.

    Hello there, I think you will find this is far more appropriate, although it would appear that the paint used in the video is more suitable for second class. Gibbo.

    Yes Keith, there is a joke in there somewhere I'm sure: Gibbo.

    Hi Stephen, Surely you can't buy customers for otherwise they would be perhaps be products or services, or am I now equally confused ?!?! Gibbo.

    Hello Mr Zomboid, Cross winds at about 30* to head on are the most trouble to train resistance. Pointy fronts mostly just look sleek and don't do a right lot to off set those trick cross winds. Gibbo.
