  1. Those baseboards are great - is their a website please ?
  2. I have some VGAs , but untouched as I stopped modelling the ews period. Should really flog em, but I like that wagon
  3. Yep, I ve seen them mentioned
  4. Nice work Mike, I see you oiled the motor bearings, I'm not sure what those are TBH
  5. Nice work, Was the 46 , the D registered current one from Bachman. I'd like a flush fronted one - have you done that from the head code version ?
  6. Good choice - classic loco. I shied away from that due the flush front at one end....
  7. I have a picture of a 40 at Bristol bath road in the ' diesels on shed '. If you ever want to to borrow a white roof 47 for a bit of variety let me know...
  8. Shame, I don't understand why you'd take a successful enterprise and run it into the ground
  9. Seeing as I've never shown any interest in plants etc, she may get the jist if I suddenly did...
  10. Strange ,I've never had any issues with bachy 47s from 035 to 535. Now Hornby 31s what a PITA
  11. Wow, they don't have much SOH do they then ? I think it's pathetic a large company getting arsey over toy trains
  12. Interesting idea. I don't need o e, but I hope it does well for the museum.
  13. Used Peco for 16 years, cheap and cheerful. When I go fine scale I'll use some thing more finescale....
  14. How about warming it up in some hot water to make it malleable ?
  15. Looks like it's a fun layout to operate with lots of potential both mainline and shunting
  16. Railways driving you to drink stu ! Such a healthy hobby we have, it makes me swear as well...
  17. If the peak doesn't turn up in October, I'm writing to my MP ! Whatever, it's a toy train...
  18. Another layout up my alley. Best of luck, I'll be watching
  19. I was contemplating getting one , but I ind I'm put off these days if they bodies don't come off easily for DCC installation. Why can't they put a sliding hatch in the bottom of the fuel tank with a socket there ? It just shows lack of thought and I'd have thought 50 % of people may want to chip their lcos these days
  20. I've had both. The Hornby one has better detail, but I kept knocking it off. The Bachmann one is enduring and more liveries - I had an original one which ran like a dog due to dirty ( and hard to get at ) pick ups. I have but one now, a later Bachmann 08839, which runs great. So if you get a Bachmann get a later one.
