  1. Nice spot. Have bid & will see if that shell will fit if I win. Some nice respray ideas coming into my head 😄
  2. Never. Until Accurascale announced the 50 which is my favourite loco. It's not cheap but compared with other releases it isn't too bad.
  3. Hi all. I've got an Atlas Classic GP7/GP9 chassis I found in my stash that is in perfect condition & runs sweetly. I think I took the body off for another project months back. Would anyone know which bodies are interchangeable with this or if any can be jerry-rigged onto the chassis? Would be nice to get a shell & make a new loco. Happy to do a little modding but don't want anything too major. TIA!
  4. Yes. I still see lots of teenage boys commuting to the same school I went to (in Croydon) by train.
  5. I have 'Glorious', 'Eagle' (& Accurascale 'Defiance' on order). Got a way to go to collect all 50, even if I don't care if they're a mixture of manufacturers! 😁
  6. I'll be there later (Saturday)! Heading up after lunch!
  7. Latest Rails discount code: "NEW Black Friday Kick Off 20% eBay Coupon Code All of now nearly 10,000 listings (and growing every day!) products of locomotives, rolling stock, models and more of any age and gauge on our store are applicable! Enter code SAVENOW at checkout to redeem. Be quick, the voucher expires 16/11/23 at 11:59pm!"
  8. "Cheap as F**k", "Crud & Flimsy", "Cheap & Frugal". I could go on with CAF quality remarks...
  9. There's also a Dapol JCB shoehorned in between the Clubman & the Turbo models! Rule 1 but I think they'd use a proper crane rather than a digger to fix the units in reality! 😆
  10. Inspiration for your modem era depots! Also in the 'interesting pictures from Flickr" thread.
  11. Other than a bit of extra surface water & a few twigs down it's relatively normal & calm here in Sussex. Other than the car in front of me this morning who thought minor surface water = driving at 15 mph on a major road! Eye of the storm must be passing over as there's not a breath of wind where I am!
  12. Went to Petworth Park yesterday for the first time in 20+ years. Hundreds of deer but definitely rutting season! Couple of pics of the beautiful stags. A couple of them were competing.

    EBay madness

    Would love to see which Network Southeast train this was in service with?!
  14. Near mint Lima Class 50020 'Revenge' for £29. Runs sweetly & only needs a little clean.
  15. Have pre-ordered 50149. Personally I think the Railfreight livery really suited the 50s! 🤪 If they'd kept the slow speed control & rheostatic braking during the rebuilds I wonder if they'd have been more of a freight success?!
  16. Apologies for lack of updates. Another loved one personal issue 🙄

  17. I made an offer with 1 hour remaining. I came back later & the item was relisted
  18. New one today. Made an offer each (£4.50) on two low value items (<£5 each) that were getting no auction interest with only a few hours left. Seller declined offer stating "would like to maximise auction sale". So instead of getting an instant £9 (+postage) they would rather refuse, fail to sell & have to relist again (with potential fees) for only a £1 gain? I can understand if my offer was low on a high value item. Is this a common theme for low value items?
  19. RailAdventure substituting for Cross Country? No a stock move 😁
