I thought the best part of that was the Operation Lifesaver Cross Tracks Safely caboose, maybe it should have been in front of the engine? MIke.

That's useful to know, we'll all come and build our layouts in your lobby then! Mike.

If you've got 1000 or so slides of pre tops sulzer 2's at Llynclys quarry, then you will either be a rich man or flood the market and make them worthless! Mike.

Yeh, right, like that's gonna happen. I just love your optimism Ant, if you could bottle and sell it, you'd make a fortune. Mike.

As the chances of getting BR blue or green coloured Sharpie marker pens over here are somewhere this side of infinitesimal, would black, (which cunningly I have in stock), do the job and wash off afterwards do you think? I may bite the bullet and see what the Chino Supermercados have in their generic marker pen range, what's the worst that could happen?!! Mike.

Easy. Here; HTH. Mike.

Grantham is Newark with all the excitement removed. Mike.

Enterprisingwestern replied to Tony Wright's topic in Modelling musings & miscellany
I like the "museum pieces", long may they roll. It's good to be reminded where we once were, warts and all, rather as I enjoy the Jamieson/Sayer Chaplin etc threads on RMweb, although having no real modelling interest in steam, it's good to see some history in the hobby. Mike. -
Not a problem I'm going to have. Mike. Smugly sitting contemplating my etched kits!

Pecorama-Pricey parts?
Enterprisingwestern replied to Chubber's topic in Modelling musings & miscellany
Peco are selling to a lot of people who don't wake up in the morning thinking "I need a Thomas The Tank Engine Locomotive", it's not until they get to Pecorama with their anklebiters that they realise this. Therefore, Peco are doing their retailers a favour by introducing new customers for the future for them, irrespective of any cost considerations. Mike. -
, or even off!! Mike.

Southern softie, duz tha mean Pyclets? Mike.

Pecorama-Pricey parts?
Enterprisingwestern replied to Chubber's topic in Modelling musings & miscellany
Peco at Beer's main customer base is the holiday maker making an impulse purchase, not the savvy model railway enthusiast, so the prices reflect this. It was always thus, I've only been once, about 30 years ago, and everything was RRP. TBH, I'm surprised there was only a couple of quid in it, I would have expected a bigger differential. Mike. -
He's in Scunthorpe, from experience, it doesn't have a time zone, just a twilight zone. Mike.

You'd most probably fall asleep part way through! Mike.

I take it the kitchen is finished as you seem to have plenty of time on your hands! Mike.
