  1. I think he means the logo above the Brian. I can see a Britsh Railways Roundel on the engine room panels.
  2. Great Transrail pics. Makes me wonder why Hornby have never released a new version in this livery.
  3. I would like to see an accurate 24/25 and VEA and OAA wagons.
  4. Really looking forward to the daily updates on this Topic. Excellent pictures, Jeff. Keep them coming.
  5. Gareth Bayers site has a few pics Neil. None of the load or in formation in a train though. http://www.garethbayer.co.uk/wotw/great-britain/c-coded/cea-2-axle-covered-hopper/ David
  6. Still open last Monday. Class 66 rumbling away when I was in the Next car park.
  7. After missing out on 47715, can't believe how quickly they went, I see some retailers still advertising 47707 in NSE but it's not on the Bachmann product list on their website. I take it thats a mistake?, on the retailers part. https://railsofsheffield.com/class-47-47707-holyrood-br-network-south-east-free-uk-post-now-due-2013-14-31-654-JJJA18904.aspx
  8. Thought I'd treat myself to a loco on ebay, but most seem to be smeared with boot polish passed off as `weathering`. What a waste.

      Weathering should be subtle mix of hues, not tar brushed

      I wonder if its boot polish or dubbin they're using....?

  10. Was staying in the Peak District last week and thought I would try and do a diversion to Sheffield to see this shop, as I had only dealt with them by mail order from them previously. Turned out to be a great idea. Staff were friendly, plenty of stock to be had and easy parking outside the door.
  11. http://www.flickr.com/photos/16313630@N07/6822742277/in/set-72157629181700385 This really shows the gradient on the incline. Very intersting thread.
  12. They still seem to be getting used today http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=all&q=lovat+spring&m=text
  13. Any Waverly route fans may find this interesting. https://www.facebook.com/AbandonedScotland

  14. This looks as if it's going to be interesting.https://www.facebook.com/AbandonedScotland

  15. Agreed. There website might not be great but there service is. I have had a lot of locos over the year each with a certificate that says it has been tested. Never had to return any.
  16. I would probably buy one too, but the lack of lights is now a noticeable problem as now most new locos and some carriages come with illumination. Surely adding lights wouldn't be a huge issue.
  17. Hi Ixion, 97403 was soley a Modelzone model, Rail express were not involved. I have the said model on my layout and the box doesn't menton Rail Express. I seen the advert in Model Rail magazine about November 2005 and I recieved it about October 2006 if my memory serves me right. It is a nice model
  18. Hi Ixion, Thanks for that. I take it from your name you're an aficionado of these machines. David
  19. I have a memory of this as proposed limited edition from Model Rail magazine a year or so back, but it got dropped for some reason. Can anybody else verify this? I would have bought it given the opportunity.
