there is a picture in the book, the intercity story that shows a HST power car in the Intercity livery that was applied to the 91's. it looks good but ive never seen a livery pic of it, any chance for those that are good agt this sort of thing? cheers. -

hi. has anyone else had a problem with shorting of thier class 50? ive got a 50004 st vincent that shorts on all my insufrog points. its dcc fitted and my points are fitted with Hornby dcc point clips. my other 50's, 50007, 50045, 2 repainted 50035's do not do it. its just this one loco and i cannot work it out. any help would be great. thank you.

so many things going wrong on layout at min, and now derailing Hornby redland pga's are causing a real headache. seriously thinking of throwing in the towel all together.

21 redland hoppers need re-wheeling. and 18 Hornby HAA hoopers need new wheels. :-( more work to do.

stalling class 14 is causing frustrating. small outstanding jobs causing frustration, think i should spend time on the layout.
