    The problem as far as I'm aware is using PVA & Liquid Lead is using it in confined air tight spaces? I have used it under wagons like this for years without any problems.
  2. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    Should be easy enough to remove the liquid led from the area where it fouls the flanges ?
  3. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    That seems like a good solution to the problems with these type of bogies 👍

    Have you omitted working pony wheels in favour of reliable running?

    My personal favorite of the show was the wonderful Bristol Avon Bridge...

    Really enjoying your pics David. It's funny how we would wait for a special, but the pics we take of the everyday services while we are waiting are even more interesting 🙂

    Following with great interest, could I ask where you acquired the Warship plate from?😎

    I use Kadee’s for coaching stock & 3 links for freight. More recently I have been experimenting with homemade magnetic couplings for freight with good results, these do require the “hand of god“ to uncouple but couple automatically. Phill

    Don't hold your breath

    Don't think they go any 7mm glazing?

    I didn't renew my membership this year after being a member for about 20 years & I have no regrets. Phill

    Hi Lee, It was great to see you too, I'm afraid I have only just seen your post as I stopped posting my progress on RMWEb as I got the impression I was pretty much I was talking to myself more or less Cheers Phill

    Hi Simon, I have found your experiment with Tam Valley & the Duchess most interesting, I do hope you resolve your issues with the Tam Valley system as at present it seems tge only option for synchronised true loco sound for us dead rail types. Cheers Phill

    It's a bit like flogging a dead horse though ;)
  15. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    Yes its that one I think? But it was a lot more complicated than that. The loco is not finished yet, the blue patches are where the Scotish numbers were.

    What started life as a very nice much modified Heljan body shell by Shaun Davidson using JLTRT & Steve Beattie parts is now developing into a rather nice class 25/1. Having spent the last couple of months scratch building a chassis & bogies out of aluminium & brass, I have also added Heljan spares for the outer bogie frames & fuel tanks etc. Next job once I'm completely happy with the cosmetic appearance of the loco will be to add radio control gear & possibly a DCC soundchip ..........

    Hi, Could anyone tell me when the process of painting conduit orange on Diesel loco's started please ? ...im particularly interested in the external conduit on class 25's although general observational info would be of interest too. Thanks Phill

    Not a problem without Mr X's involvement I would have thought If you read what I said then you will see I never mentioned another 50, just another project being made available .
  19. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    I believe a alternative was mentioned at the time of the 50 being cancelled?
  20. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    Perhaps another crowdfunded project could be started at some point for all the disappointed people (myself included) who were let down by this whole fiasco
  21. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    Thanks Bob, it wpuld seem that 25032 is my only option for a early WR dual braked example.....nice pic too
  22. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    Thank you Covkid, I had niticed on prototype pics the lack of water tanks & thank you for the additional information it is much appreciated
  23. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    No Phil, as 25032 has the hinges https://www.derbysulzers.com/5182.html
  24. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    BTW this is the loco body that will assume a BR(WR) identity ......
  25. Phill Dyson (onslaught832)
    Thank you everyone for your contributions & my research is ongoing, thanks to your pointers I have come up with the following candidates & I am looking for more...... 25032 dual braked in 1974, allocated to Cardiff in May 1974 25048 dual braked in 1975, allocated to Laira 1978 25057 dual braked in 1974, allocated to Laira 1978 25058 dual braked in 1974, allocated to Laira 1978 25032 probably is my favorite at the moment as it would run alongside my Hydraulics circa 74 to 77
