  6. I'll call a TARDIS at the rank. Of course I mean 2014 Ken
  7. I've been searching for a copy of the Railway Modeller Annual for 2104. I'm told it has an article on pre WW2 modelling in it and as the editor of Satellite the online magazine of the British 1:87 Society, I want to find out more about British H0 modelling in that era and the firm's that supplied for it. If you've got a copy going spare please contact me. It if you can provide me with a scan of the article. . . . . I can be contacted directly at kennclark@btinternet.com
  8. I got mine in Spring and it needed extensive alteration and fettling before it would even move. See the latest Great North Review for details. It had to be rewired, key components moved and weight added. It runs now but still needs weight added and it can't cope with turning. A real pity. The maker seems now to be off grid and unavailable and the last time I checked the website had disappeared

  11. Hopefully we'll see a photo with no extraneous gubbins in the background and with the loco wheels visible, rather than in black shadow, sometime soon. Ken
  12. I received my D40 a good few weeks back. It has needed an inordinate amount of "fettling" and more to get it to work, some of which has been spoken about in the GNSR Review by Des, their modelling guy. It still isn't running very well, due it is believed, because it still too light and needs someone who knows to put lots of lead in at least the tender and over the front bogie. Has a formal review of the loco appeared which gets to grips with all the issues and posits solutions? As a useless bodger only i'd love to find some to take it away and return it running perfectly. Please. But it looks wonderful on my window ledge. Sigh !
  13. As a technofool I don't know how to post photos and as a H0 modeller I don't have OO wheels. Gibson's lists have close-up photos of their wheels. Look there.
  14. Obviously Gibson And I write as someone who has in the past had an inordinate amount of trouble prizing ordered wheels out of them Still worth it in the end though
  15. Fascinating. Perhaps if you posted the query on the British 1:87 Society Forum you might have better hopes of a solution. If it is H0 and you choose to sell it/ give it away that's where to go. I'm editor of Satellite the online mag if the Society so any help I can give, just ask. If you want I'll copy your query to the Forum and see what response you get. Ken Clark Could it be 3mm?
