Its Johnny Cash selling it ''one piece at a time''

The Buckeye sets obviously will look a better coupler on coaches where applicable 

Madness ?

As per usual I am a bit confused!

Is the BR release to be BR green or BR numbered in Apple green ?

or has black been mentioned.

thanks

Born in Ilkeston I have always wondered if there was a local Cossall colliery PO wagon.

We have a nice Manors 00 wagon again an Ilkeston Colliery.

My good friend ''Dave'' has amazingly just found a photo in a issue of backtrack.

Would any one else by chance have seen or know of any more details on suck a wagon please.

We at present though a great start not a lot to go on,

Thanks'

Save your money and try something like this:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334664681392

for about £30.

With the addition of some gravers and a speed control, it can be used to turn small metal items like boiler fittings.

Someone on here must have seen one in the flesh?

Cannot see a misaligned tailstock from here!  

Its £30 quid delivered!

well spotted that man 

You may have already seen this ! there is a Scottish class 08 shunter in it,

I like it .            ***** 2.54 has a freightliner container being unloaded of goods,

there strangely is a real car similar to the above based here in South Normanton (Alfreton) with music bellowing out the speaker which makes you smile as it passes. Must get a photo! spooky seeing it here as a model. Peter

That's a really badly worn two-tone green.  Most of them were like that before BR got around to painting them blue.

Always interesting to observe the end of platform enthusiasts - one day I will find myself !

I expect we are all invited to a free drink on the opening night - cheers.

Hello.

Just ordered both packs @ £49.99 each as in stock at Bluebell Railway via a Google search of Hornby Biomass.

May now help other interested parties.

Hello all,

does anyone know if etched painted name plates are available for the Hornby Stanton 57  ?

thanks,

Peter.

Yes I have one as a, worked a while in the spun pipe plant.

                               b, worked a while at Wolmot Brothers (sadly) who maintained these engines.

Peddled through the Stanton works many times on my Sunday shed visits to Toton.

One of my efforts as to many hours in the 60.s & 70s spent line-side on the Erewash Valley.

One of my efforts thanks.

Same seller as above & it is interesting (I Believe ? )
