I take it, you wear white trousers so that you can immediately trace the source of any oil leak?

You might want to take another look at the title of this thread. To my great disappointment, it’s not about flowers!

Wouldn't they be 10.5mm overall? David

Not that I've noticed, but I do live a very sheltered life ...

So it's a bare bear chasing a bold, brazen boar with a bag?

I'm slowly developing the opinion that they're a strange lot at Busch.

From 2019, after the band had been 50 years together:

To my eyes it looks really good but, without a photo of an actual wagon for reference, it's impossible to say whether it is a good representation of reality. David

Are they making a film of this?

Appropriate, considering the whole situation is definitely la la.

Yes, but what glorious scenery on the the way there!

The Ballachulish line?

Eerie Lackawanna, Chicago Burlington & Quincy, Great Northern and Canadian Pacific.

That sounds so unfortunate to British ears, but there's nothing wrong with the sentiment.

A wild guess: mast fittings for a 2mm scale fishing boat?

Er, does FedEx actually ship anything?

Aliens Anonymous?

Congratulations. You’ve just been nominated for a Master of Understatement award!

While this will certainly apply to RTR model trains, I think you are overstating the problem with regard to the more specialised items like kits, detailing items and models that are expressly not intended for children. With reference to the Council Directive 88/378/EEC of 3 May 1988 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States concerning the safety of toys it states under ANNEX I: "PRODUCTS NOT REGARDED AS TOYS FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS DIRECTIVE (Article 1 (1)) 1. Christmas decorations 2. Detailed scale models for adult collectors 3. etc." As I think it has already been mentioned here, a supplier only has to print "Not for children under 14 years of age", or words to that effect, and the problem is solved.

Hi Julia, It's always a good idea to include a quote with a query. I only noticed your question by chance, as I don't post here that often after being side-tracked by American N gauge! The size of the tube I used is 1mm with 0.5mm bore. HTH, David

The only appropriate material for telegraph poles is metal, and a good first aid kit ... David

Nobody is forcing you to sell to the EU.

I usually cut the panes well oversize and retain them with styrene strips so that there is no danger of them ever falling out. That method will be a bit awkward on a 2mm scale signal box, though. David

Here you go: https://southernacrylics.co.uk/epages/91219bf3-65e8-4793-8013-f4c24e711941.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/91219bf3-65e8-4793-8013-f4c24e711941/Products/00001 Ive no experience with them but they weren’t difficult to find by searching for “0.5mm acrylic”. Btw, I use similar material for all of my windows and loco flush glazing. HTH, David
