Its past April first so i guess Guinness does cloud your judgement e mail today We have our very first Accurascale model in stock in TT120 scale, and to celebrate, it's strictly limited to just 120 packs. Our Accurascale research pack of three figures is now also available in TT120 scale and in stock now! Produced using the latest 3D scanning and 3D printing techniques by our friends Modelu, they are also made in Britain! Depicting our model research team, they can be posed beside your TT models in a siding, just like how we research future on the real railway. Maybe you can use them to hint at what future TT models you would like to see us make, or just add a little cameo to a corner of your TT layout. Should we make models in TT? Sales of these figures may encourage us, or they might turn out to be our only ever model in TT120 scale. The power is in your hands!

The road to the moon and beyond to Mars.

Well booster on the launch table overnight and today should start launch tests by the look of closures. This should be the one to see a better re entry as the roll thrust problem will be identified and addressed for this flight test im sure. -

Well it would make sence on Mars to use diesel to warm up and build an atmosphere in the long term. -

Minor gripe when paying by phone.

If you had said twenty years ago you could pay for model trains with apple they would have thought you owned a cider factory...............:) -
Well gearing it down will give it more tractive effort but at what point do the plastic gears loose grip on the axle.......Hornby dublo did a test of pulling a youngter on a trolley with a model CO CO in the late 50,s but they had brass gears. Not long to wait for you to test them together but how many have a layout to pull scale length trains.

Dont know how many are on for inflated resale but by using the auction function you would at least not loose money and your not twisting anyones arm to buy it are you, even the spivs are just giving an option of getting a model if one missed out, you dont have to buy.

Apparently a single screw ship and the smoke is off the stacks,i guess engines in full reverse as they knew it was heading for bridge as the ship called in emergency first,it would seem its had electrical issue all the time in port with overloads tripping........
-
The ship looses electrical power if you watch footage it goes dark and they get the power back but its too late to steer,apparently it dropped the anchor but was too late.

Hmm seems i attend to many shows then, and enjoy a bit chin wagg with you guys, its a nice touch though and puts names to faces and become buddys with a common interest, as Stephen has suggested a supply on the site for post for those who dont or cannot attend shows, one in the box for the international customers for there support. I guess its the having something to touch and remember a point in time thats appealling to some but just as useful to whack flys with in the summer and the bag full of bricks brigade who attend shows.Thanks either way Paul and Co -
