  1. To quote my earlier comment: "Whenever I see layouts like this it makes me want to build a GWR layout. Must resist..... Stu" Stu
  2. My memory tells me that Triang produced a 4 wheel diesel shunter, possibly in a starter set. I recall that it was a "steeple" cab type (but not the same as the steeple cab electric) and may have been in red or yellow. I have tried finding references to this but have found nothing. Does such a thing exist? Stu
  3. Too many people seem to have their lives changed because they cannot get kit a or part b. They should think of the people who have their lives changed by illness, family issues, money problems etc. Stu
  4. To my mind, the gauge of the mesh looks far to heavy on some of these (e.g. the Busch one). I think the Woodland Scenics ones looks okay, so will probably go with that. Stu
  5. That and the Bristol Railways Archive (http://bristol-rail.co.uk/wiki/Main_Page) are two sites that I find really interesting even thought he actual areas are not of interest to me! Stu
  6. I've always liked the real Twizell and this model captures it very well! Stu
  7. It's a while since Hythe looked like that unfortunately - really interesting pics. Stu
  8. You could put a double-sided backscene between the two stations - I've seen this done before. Stu
  9. I want to send a small aerosol of paint to somebody in the UK from the UK. As far as Royal Mail are concerned this is a no-no. Does anybody know of another way? Stu
  10. No - it just has that sort of atmosphere with the Southern locos and the background together. Stu
  11. Sussex getting towards the coast? Stu
  12. There's no future in your relationship. Stu
  13. You could make it a colliery layout - then you could name it: https://www.forestofdeanhistory.org.uk/resources/sites-in-the-forest/whimsey-colliery/ Stu
  14. And of course (surprised that nobody's mentioned it) - you can always lie. Stu
  15. Whenever I see layouts like this it makes me want to build a GWR layout. Must resist..... Stu
  16. It looks like Woodland Scenics do something suitable. Stu
  17. Similar, but I wondered if there was anything commercially produced. I also want gates which often have a tubular frame with rounded corners. This will not have the barbed wire along the top, and hence the top will be straight. Stu
  18. I an looking for a source of chain link fencing and gates which is the "old" type and not the modern security fencing. I have so far not been able to find anything. Does anybody make it? Stu
  19. Can anybody tell me if the Knightwing containerization's kits can be assembled so that the doors can be opened and closed, or if they have to have fixed position? Stu
  20. How does the current stock compare age-wise with the oldest regularly running stock in the world? Stu
  21. You could try ordering from Walthers dealers in Europe. Then you do not have to pay the tax. I have done this successfully once or twice. Stu
  22. I remember recording this off the TV, and the tape (remember those?) then refusing to work. I never thought to look on YouTube. Just recently bought the IRS "Rope and Chain Haulage" book, so this is quite timely. Regards Stu
