Jim’s “out and about with GBRf” thread
Gremlin99 replied to big jim's topic in UK Prototype Discussions (not questions!)
Not just how long the train is, but also just how huge those wagons are! Happy New Year Jim. I might not comment, but I love seeing your content; gives a really great insight into how the railway works. Thankyou! -

What a beautiful, beautiful thing. Kudos to all. -
BR 16t Minerals, By Accurascale
Gremlin99 replied to Accurascale Fran's topic in Accurascale / Irish Railway Models
Thanks! I’m happy with packs A-C. I’m not a very pedantic modeller, just happy with something that feels right, vs being 100% spot on perfect. ☺️ -
BR 16t Minerals, By Accurascale
Gremlin99 replied to Accurascale Fran's topic in Accurascale / Irish Railway Models
Forgive my ignorance, but if I was looking for some that would make a rake of 9-12 wagons (I've not much space) that'd be representative of the current rake on the GCR, which packs would be most appropriate? Seeing as I have the Bachmann model of 9F "92214".... Thanks folks. -

Hate to be *that* guy but… I’m excited damn it!! -

Hi When would the retailers receive their allocation? I have Lord Hinton on order from Rails and need to shift some funds around for it! Super excited for the first of my 4 37’s to arrive! -
Bargain Hunters Mark 2

Rails discounting some of the Cavalex BLA/BBAs. £36 or £42 weathered. https://railsofsheffield.com/collections/cavalex-models?q=bba&_kx=tyNyBDpZs1RrJXteEO78EB6lmwqPiKAa7-lsugyK1y3qnSFePN1n7xZw98DdvMB7.RXkVMS&utm_campaign=Cavalex Models BBA Reduced&utm_id=01GY7R7RVE2ZGCEGASB53P6MSR&utm_medium=campaign&utm_source=Klaviyo -
Most Accurascale models ordered!
Gremlin99 replied to reddragon's topic in Accurascale / Irish Railway Models
Go on then: Loco 1x92 received (92036) 4x37 on order (Yellow, Lord Hinton, Europhoenix and the HTG one) 1x50 on order (H+H) 1x66 on order (Climate Hero) Coaches 1xTPE Mk 5 set 4x WCRC coaches on order (MK2B/C) Wagons 12 x nuke PFA 6x shorty HYA 6xIIA 4xJSA 3x Coil A 3x MDO (The Planet Industrial orange ones!) Pack of FNA-D on order Still considering another 66 and whatever they announce at Ally Pally will inevitably also go on the possibles! (Oh, and if they were to announce a model of 31413 "Severn Valley Railway"......... ) That's actually a chunk more than last time I posted in this topic. A fair bit more than I thought... -
This is a great announcement. I own one of the Hatton's examples (the pink one!) and until recently it was the best loco I own (then I bought a '92...) I'm definitely tempted by the "Climate Hero" one, and may I be the first to suggest the London Transport (66721) themed one? I appreciate Bachmann did one but they were super limited from memory!

I emailed Dapol the other day about my 68 not "going". They pointed me in the direction of DCC Supplies as their service point. They *do* have parts on their website. They may be a better option :)

Gremlin99 replied to Accurascale Fran's topic in Accurascale / Irish Railway Models
I’m down for a couple from this first tranche. They’ll arrive when they arrive! It’s all good. People’s health >> toy trains after all. is this putting things like the HTG version back further than the summer? I can’t wait to see what cool stuff is coming soon! Phil -
222000 Class Railcars In OO from IRM
Gremlin99 replied to AY Mod's topic in Accurascale / Irish Railway Models
My unit knowledge isn't great, but are these related to the Meridians (222) over here? They might be nice to have... -
Class 37, by Accurascale
Gremlin99 replied to Accurascale Fran's topic in Accurascale / Irish Railway Models
Gives me a bit more time to save for Lord Hinton (assuming that’s a batch 1 loco?). It is just a symptom of the global IC shortage. Thanks for the update! Where does the Heavy Tractor Group 37714 model fit? Presumably this time next year? -
Class 20 Rattle Can Roof Colour
Gremlin99 replied to Swarf Maker's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
Absolutely. Just commenting on the colours tbh as I appreciate the names can be a bit impenetrable! -
Class 20 Rattle Can Roof Colour
Gremlin99 replied to Swarf Maker's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
On the GW front (as a builder of GW stuff). GW spray isn’t the cheapest but it’s super nice to use IMO. Two options on grey I believe. “Grey Seer” is a lighter grey and “Mechanicus Standard Grey” is a darker. They also do an off white/creamy ish colour called “Wraithbone”. Final point, not all the small pots are *exactly* the same shade as the equivalent spray can… -
Finally got chance to see this at Loughborough last weekend having been following since it was in BRM. Fabulous stuff Les.

Jim’s “out and about with GBRf” thread
Gremlin99 replied to big jim's topic in UK Prototype Discussions (not questions!)
“Tallest three drop log flume in UK” or similar I think! Iron Wolf (Twin looper) was my first ever upside down ‘coaster, closely followed by The Missile (an absolute brute of a ride) -
Dapol say they’ll fit grab handles for free. 🙂 https://www.Dapol.co.uk/OO-Gauge-Class-68-Grab-Handle-Fitting-Service
