Have'nt been around there for years . I worked in that area in the 1970's , it may have been demolished and rebuilt more than once since then !. Prime site. It was a little shop at best..It appears to be a listed area so the building should be still there. No 14 https://www.jwmodelrailways.com/product-page/w-h-models-scale-model-equipment-1977-catalogue 14/16 New cavendish Street https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:14_and_16_New_Cavendish_Street,_Marylebone,_March_2023.jpg Totally different look today , presumably it was only one half of the shop in the photo above.

Hundred yards or less from Marylebone High Street the other end from Gt Portland Street.

The combined price and in a sealed bag do not help the decision making.

Rumney Models do a accessory wagon etch 5* Wizard Models also do one 4*

Yes that the only other model I have ever seen from him . Graeme King as already said has built one on the LNER Forum.

I like a challenge especially when its really cheap!! no one else bidded on it either !!. At £3 it was no loss if it finally ended up in the bin !!. it is certainly far better than the lumpen horrid Millholme version I built years ago, and sold on as it never even run properly, let alone looked good either !. I have only ever seen a 4mm J21 of his, built by Graeme King in photos . Never seen any other models listed by him, has he a website ? .

D20 is now painted , lining etc will wait until the Tender is built. Now on the go a Thompson Q1 3d print bought via ebay for £3, sitting on a spare Bachmann 04 chassis. Obviously a partially failed print which has needed a lot of filling and levelling up on the large cracked offside. Other than a set of etched steps, all the other bits fitted are from the spares box. Now primed , this has shown a lot of further cleaning up required. edit Photo of the ebay Q1 original listing as recieved. I have removed the Safety Valve housing as not used in my NER area Q1 Please observe copyright on below . Photo shown for reference purposes only.

The Oxford version should be handed . Easy enough to correct with some micro strip , they were very cheap when released, and I have a few corrected. Like a lot of Oxford products they are now going up in price on ebay.

Couple of photos of my ancient 1960/70's? Norton J25 when finished on below link. They were on here as well, but they were lost in the software crash. Like all of the Norton kits I have built, they are all basic, but look ok eventually !! If you need I can measure mine for Boiler diameters etc. https://www.lner.info/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1624&hilit=lner+j25&start=1275

D20 loco only so far, now ready for paint.

I presume this actually relates to the whole of the Hornby Group in general ?. If yes they have simply too may irons in the diminishing fire. There is no realistic comparison with small companies such as Accurascale etc, they do not have the overheads of staff wages, far too many ranges, etc , etc to fund every year like Hornby . I have no idea how Hornby Group , will ever make a profit, if they ever do?? . All that said all any profit will do, is pay off a tiny part of the huge losses they have made for many many years. A recipe for ??

Place some plastic tubing over the pick up wires = no short ever again.

Current build a Arthur K LNER D20 . Good kit , the only issue so far is the cab interior parts, required a lot of cutting etc. Next job will be the Boiler Handrails. Kit has provided basic internal motion parts, not very visible when assembled !!.

Sorry wrong link !!

Pre wired and a lot less hassle. No idea repostage Peter S always overcharges

A lot cheaper here https://www.railwayscenics.com/miniature-connectors-c-20_22_341.html

Must be some real bargains on there !! 🤣 Errrr no !!🙃

Can you confirm the actual quality of the latest sheets?. The 4mm LNER Loco/Coaches and LNER Lining sheets from about a year ago I bought were simply awful. Out of register, the lining sheet was by far the worse one of the two sheets. Also poor glue etc. My last order was refunded (less postage) without even an apology or any admission re the poor effort/quality they were. I now buy old sheets via ebay when available.

Have a look here. Excellent figures. https://www.acstadden.co.uk/shop-3

Avoid plastic "detail" no strength and poor detail. All you need is here, as already said. https://www.dartcastings.co.uk/lner-diag23.php#donor

Sounds like a new motor Bachmann do spares if needed https://Bachmann-spares.co.uk/category/2-branchline-steam-parts/3f-jinty/chassis

Bin them or get some very poor feedback on ebay in due course !!

The only LNER model I have seen with Red Rods is the latest Bachmann J72 2313 which also has Red lining to the wheels. I believe it is correct for when it was used at Newcastle? as a station pilot? The NER painted Rods Red as well, again no idea if applied on all Locos
