    Has the 50015 valiant thread been deleted? It says that 'i do not have permission to view topic'.

      FAB! I think it needs a thread on here. Forget the fact it is not a model railway theme - I want to see it!

    This feeling of growing frustration doesnt seem to want to go away. house chains. i detest them.

      Chain breaking caused me no end of pain last year, thankfully all sorted now

    for two hours last night, me and four 'Bots' were the only inhabitants on the RMweb archive.

      Nonsense. Those bots are probably quite experienced modellers.

    New house has been obtained, and a bigger garage, more trains, and i fancy a sea wall section.

    1. NXEA!

      NXEA!

      Nice! I have an offer in on a house myself (first time buyer) but I won't have the luxury of a railway room/garage, so it's going to have to be inventive and small for me!

  10. Dan Griffin

    And the newest addition will be....... a baby girl! My lads happy he doesnt have to share his trains!

  12. Dan Griffin

    Its a sad day, Dr Beechings axe has fallen upon my railway, impending house sale means southminster has closed, and the tracks torn up, but a double garage beckons!! More room.

      Same thing happened to me, Dan, in early 2014. 3 years on and things are better than previously. So stay positive!!

  13. Dan Griffin

    Monarch of the glen train set, brand new for £50, bargain?

    1. loickebros

      loickebros

      ok give us a clue.

      should you have posted this in bargain hunters thread or as it should be called lately bargain braggers thread.

    2. Dan Griffin

      Dan Griffin

      no, more of a question really, as I rarely buy steam locos, wondered if it was a bargain? or

      not?

      If anybody can spare a pair of the Bachmann Mk2s from the old Highlander set I'd love to know?

  14. Dan Griffin

    All the years using acrylic thinners to spray acrylic, just used water as id ran out and it was the same if not better! Doh!

      Another vote here for screenwash as a general purpose acrylic thinner

    3. AndrewC

      AndrewC

      Screenwash works great. If you are using water, don't use tap if you are in a hard water area. It will crust up the airbrush in time.

      Agree with above post

      I notice he doesn't mention the locos!

      Take photos of your locos and add them to your list. It helps tracking them if something unfortunate happens
