  1. Good man . This is a sure fire hit from Bachmann - a master stroke I think
  2. I’ve put my money where my mouth is , and pre ordered one from derails . strangely I was offered a kit version last week, but I don’t have time . I already have the two wagons above in kit form to be converted to run with it
  3. I watched the senna crash recently. The amount of time the Marshall’s stood there doing xxxx all whilst he just sat there was criminal
  4. I’m not a fan of these “ id buy 100 , it’d sell like hotcakes “ type posts .. And I don’t have space for one , and already have the other but surely … The HST , The class 08/09. Nothing on the market to current standards , and the red box versions extremely limited supply and liveries as they concentrate on their core demographic of steam .
  5. Hmmm, I reckon Ferrari is like his testimonial. Take the money , wear the red suit for a year and then leg it.
  6. Do you think Lewis heart is still in it ?is it my imagination or is he outperformed by George a lot now
  7. As long as the contract states verstappens toxic father ain’t allowed in the garage
  8. Looks like a diagram of the corona virus on wheels
  9. True, have yet to see one in OO yet though !
  10. Don’t much see the point of the crawling . Real life trains don’t crawl much unless they are coupling up. People are at work and want to get the job finished !
  11. Large logo all day. Anything is else is like spraying poster paint on a Picasso
  12. Think I prefer the black one. They should make it gloss black
  13. The sprint qualifying in the wet was the most interesting bit of this weeks circus
  14. Dunno how high Concorde went . I think both U2 and the blackbird could manage that high ?
  15. I like the 350 design , it’s like a slightly melted 787 ;) you can tell all these things come off similar design aerodynamic cad whatnots …they all look fairly similar , wasn’t the case years ago .. I’ve just purchased this mug in recognition of my time on the plastic jet …it’s an engine mug ..Boeing do some good merch
  16. I think the question I’d ask with rails is , “ show me the photo of that loco looking like that “. There’s a fair percentage of imaginary weathering going on ….what people think weathering looks like rather than the reality . Should always be based on the real loco I feel
  17. They are start and taxiable or I believe to teach the airmen and women ground handling techniques
  18. You won’t find much flying in there . the runway is only about 1400m which precludes routine ops of all the heavy or pointy stuff . theyve got a load of jaguars there they run for technical training . I wonder if these were flown in somehow ? Like slam it down and brake like stink / drag chute etc
  19. I wouldn’t swap my pre new version blue box ones - ima cgually still happy with my 47035 from about 2005 ! That did take hacking around the bodies to change the obvious class 57 bits though , but my more recent one is also good. If I got anymore it’d be the new Bachmann , but have to be well below £200 and the blue ones seem to consistently stay above that
  20. Maybe if the NHS is funding them but you can’t impose that if they are paying their own way through training
  21. And unlike most blue diesels the yellow has square corners
  22. From Dave’s vid for those who haven’t seen it. he also pointed out there’s no backing to the exhaust so you can see straight in to the PCB. The TMC weathered version was better as it hid some of the mistakes !
