      I thought that looked like a made up word until I looked it up on Google.

      All I can say is that it all sounds pretty unlucky to me (and ever so slightly sinister).

       

      Take care.

    I almost, almost thought about buying some 7mm track & a loco today. Was very close.

      I, too, have mentally noodled on 7mm. A tidy shunting plank would stand in until I have the space for my 4mm plans. But I’m now just planning a 4mm shunter instead.

      These are not the 7mm locos that you are looking for.

       

  4. Stubby47

    I've dropped the prices on the 3 Classified adverts for my locos. Please PM if interested. 

  5. Stubby47

    If ever you are in Truro, please do drop in to the workshop and say hello.

     

    I even have tea & coffee, but can't guarantee there will be any biscuits left.
