      I really don't know whether I can be bothered to work out how to find my way around.

      I used to have a nice list of topics that I had subscribed to on the right. That's gone now. :(

      Somewhat underwhelmed.

      I really don't like the new set up, have requested that my profile is deleted, will move on to something else .

      Looks like a P87 layout. Great for a modern type ballast shoulder, not so sure how it would work with a lesser shoulder, or no shoulder at all. Very clever, though.

      Given how some people have had problems with theirs I suggest cleaning the slope before attempting to run the Castle up it

  21. shanks522

    A spoon on route with sound! Looking forward to this!

    Accidentally bought an HST and bubble car off ebay, online christmas shopping is fun.

      Best not to spill it all over the model, things progress much better that way.
