    Shall be ordering one of the Caledonian 92s (sound one) next week on payday and some of the Mark 5s to The CAD Renders look amazing to. Chris

    Have to agree for the Value sake (although, shop i got the BR85 from, One of the guy's didn't think highly of Hornby though) But then Roco is in a different league, even better then the Stirling Single i'd have to say. Either way the Prairie for sure is on my list, so are the Mark 2Fs as see me getting those Scotrail ones, over the Bachmann ones (Due to price mostly)

    The Large Prairie looks gorgeous and so does the samples of the Scotrail Mark 2s. Price of the Big boy isn’t that bad. About 70 odd cheaper then the Roco BR85 I got last month. But the Big Boy is tempting to. Chris.

    For those interested. Small glimpse of the 16xx on Rapido's newest video shows the CAD work. https://youtu.be/uAT2oWNf3Jk?t=275

    Quite nice and easy to install the Decoder, body comes off without issue after removing the couplers and taking out the screws. The Gaugemaster DCC23 does fit, although goes a little high. But wrapped it in Electrical tape so no issue there. Will be a interesting one to see what sound decoders will fit though. Although great the speaker already installed. Chris

    Can give another good review for this shop. Ordered some Roco Coaches (74127 ) To go with the BR85 i got in Hamburg. Ordered Thursday arrived today this morning. Can see my go to place for future German stuff i will get. Chris

    Got mine today and a gorgeous little locomotive, Seems to run fine although squeaks a little, but hopefully will go away with a little running it. Also took two photo's of the J70 next to what i got in Hamburg being a Roco BR85 Now to just get the DCC Decoder or be adventurous and follow the sound file example in the manual? Chris

    Great to hear, Looking forward for my MR-201 as well. Knowning my luck, will arrive when away for B'day later in the week.

    Well could be a expensive year for me. Bittern looks tempting, so will the Large Prairie as well. But more importantly Mark 2Fs for my 68 to pull (Will see what Bachmann announce though) The Scotrail HST GTI power cars and coaches as well. The USA Scotsman would have been a yes, if it wasn't the 'bling' version. Lets see what Bachmann announce now, but then to Hamburg in March for 30th, so that will likely be expensive if get to a model shop. Chris

    Just to say the chains have come for my model now, so has the letter and invoice. Will be done after back from Holiday. Just to wait for the Guard Iron replacement now Chris
  11. Chris89
    Thanks, Good to hear about that for the Chains, just the other bit got to hear back about. Chris
  12. Chris89
    Mine has just arrived and is a gorgeous model Although two minor issues, both the chains came off in transit, but have found all parts within the box though, although more concerning is some detail/ comestic damage on the Right hand check iron (Will email Locomotion about though) Runs perfectly as well. Video as well Chris

    Some gorgeous photo's posted of the Single. Like others got the dispatch email for myself and gladly coming before Holiday Also another good thing a person from work also wants to see it and has a layout as well, so will be able to get some video's off her running with some coaches (Also hopefully when it arrives a Dynamometer car as well) Chris
  14. Chris89
    Paid in full when i ordered it (just before the closing date) But no email for me, Hopefully comes before holiday in early August
  15. Chris89
    Nice photos, Hope that you did enjoy the SVR though, Especially since my local railway Should have walked up to Highley
  16. Chris89
    After getting my eye for a while, just preordered one as well Chris
  17. Chris89
    Got mine today as well. Being 705. As mentioned before, first locomotive did anything on when started Volunteering. Also might as well make use of the lovely weather & Make use of the door step. Although oddly got sent a extra decoder, yet one was fitted for me by Hattons, appears was sent by mistake and has been posted to be returned already. Chris
  18. Chris89
    Got the same email myself this morning, Gladly though now my 705 has been dispatched Chris
  19. Chris89
    Got the same email and just put through my order for the DCC one, Now just to get the money from Brother, he said would give for Birthday

    Very odd reports for DPD and Royal Mail here. As for both have been excellent for me, Although for DPD it is computer stuff thats worth a few hundred etc. Also got neighbours that take stuff in, For Royal Mail, if no answer our stuff gets left at the Postoffice, Since i do that/ COOP, and my mum is a Post Mistress there as well, so guess that helps. APC is one i haven't had any experience with yet either though. Chris

    Pre-ordered the As Preserved one as more biased towards it, Also did just call Rails about the invoice and have confirmed as well the £30 has been taken as well for it. Also by the sounds off it already is doing rather well to. Chris
  22. Chris89
    Just ordered 705 in Black for myself Very biased for the locomotive, since first one ever did anything on, when started to Volunteer on preserved railways.
  23. Chris89
    Have to say the Single looked gorgeous today. Was on the Do i want/ Don't need list. Now it's on the Want list haha. Have to say as well the Tram Engines look great to (Getting one, not sure which yet) and the Dynamometer coach looks lovely to. Chris
  24. Chris89

  25. Chris89
