  1. Also in the background of that pic, London Road Low Level in it's parcels depot guise. Mike.
  2. Decide for yourself whether you get the cigar? Mike.
  3. I'm using 0.8mm brass rod for droppers, lot less obtrusive than cable, smaller hole through the baseboard, stays where it's put and easier to solder to the side of the rail without the danger of melting sleepers. Mike.
  4. Close, but no cigar! Talisman clips are battery box clips fitted after the Ealing derailment. Mike.
  5. Which just about equates to my modelling, best viewed from a distance! Mike.
  6. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,when I win the Euromillions! Mike.
  7. Aha, there's the rub, we are working to different standards, mine runs on Scaleway and pcb pointwork, it seems to be a bit higher off the sleepers to give a bit of fiddle room. Mike.
  8. Without wishing to start an argument, mine didn't, we seem to be working to 2 different EM standards! Mike.
  9. The old brass ones were, but the newer replacement wheels are satisfactory. Mike.
  10. But no clear demarcation between the Hattons and Hornby images? Mike.
  11. Double junction, helix, 2 fiddle yards. Sorted. Mike.
  12. From what I can remember, it went into Swindon soon after, someone will have the date? Mike.
  13. D1057/D1008. 81A. 11.4.71. I've been keeping my powder dry on this one, but now you can have it! Mike.
  14. By all accounts Harleys don't go round corners very well at all, which is a somewhat huge disadvantage round these parts. Mike.
  15. These things, and variations on a theme of, seem quite popular out this way, especially on a Sunday morning, when we get the putty loosened out of the windows with waves of them going up and down the valley. Mike.
  16. Hattons show the Railroad version in their pages, has this changed? Mike.
  17. Not necessarily, if you bought the wagons on the strength of the box artwork and price, you would reasonably expect them not to be inferior railroad models, how many of us unpack and open sealed rolling stock in the shop?, locomotives maybe as they may have been test run. The various Hornby triple packs I have bought based on the above premise have turned out to be satisfactory, so why are Hornby now running a con?. Very fair of Hattons to offer a full refund IMHO. Mike.
  18. Ooooh, proper plywood, drool drool. Mike.
  19. I had the reverse happen, my mother in law asked for a chair which I duly bought, but the ungrateful old witch won't let me plug it in when she sits in it. Mike.
  20. Think of the 1966 England football squad, works for me! Mike.
  21. Textured yellow and patterned black stripes, now there's a challenge for the next shunter Phil! Mike
  22. Do the current Warships not succumb to a thumbnail scrape any more? That used to be an endearing trait of the older versions. MIke.
  23. I thought the idea was to encourage people to visit the GCR? Mike.
