I spoke to Patrick on chat today about this issue. This was his reply to me. 

“We are aware of an issue which is currently preventing Partial.ly from updating order statuses on our e-commerce system. Partial.ly's technical team are currently working on a solution and we expect the issue to be resolved in the coming days”

Same here. I paid one off last week and still says partially paid. The one before that I got an email from Accurascale within minutes of paying it off saying payment complete.

I think this part is compatible for any of the 9Fs made up to that date. The UK (Margate) part was X814 and is easily available as here:

If you use this option you may want to replace the UK wheels with the blackened China made ones from the broken pony truck

Cheers for that. Part ordered

Are you sure it's plastic and not metal? Sounds like it has mazak rot.

Just had another look it Is metal, Mazak rot. The only bit on the whole loco !!

I have a 2004 Evening Star Hornby 9F, tender driven. It is out of a Marks and Spencer limited edition Evening Stat set I have. On checking it today I noticed the pony truck plastic has turned brittle and fallen apart. I’m after a front pony truck Complete with wheels, steps, coupling. If anybody has one they’d like to sell or could point me in write direction for spares I’d be grateful. 

Having a clear out pending a possible house move. I have a complete set of model rail magazines from No 1 right up to current issue. Free to a good home or off to recycle. Would prefer they all go as one rather than odd ones here and there. Thanks

Your answers are on page 8.

Thanks for that Holyrood, something to have a go at this week whilst I'm snowed in !!

Just read the article about Leaford in Model Rail 150 and was interested to learn how you weather your loco's. It states that you paint the loco black then wipe it off. Just a couple of questions:

1. Do you paint whole loco all at once or do it in stages.

2. Which paint do you use ? is it acrylic or water based.

3. Do you varnish loco once weathered.

Thanks
