My SR terminus seems to have taken a hybrid LB&SCR with GWR Coaching stock look... intriguing.
-
Happy Valentines all!
-
After some disappointment I consoled myself by purchasing a Beattie Well Tank from Kernow. Can't wait for it to arrive!
-
Went out for some 7mm Scale Points... came back with a 4mm scale MLV which is whizzing around the loop running in. Strange day...
-
Oh dear my M7 nearly took a nose dive off the baseboard, good job it was dragging my failed T9 which barely kept it on.
-
Was brave... folded the boards over. Guess what...? No ballast fell off!!!
-
Ahh 'bus travel as George Shillibeer intended; top deck, windows down, summer breeze, engine on the rev limiter - no other passengers on board watching the glorious English Rolling countryside passing by, travelling by bus Like a Sir!
-
Aha! Another Loco gets "chipped" was a tight squeeze... but then again that's what she said!
-
Dilemma!!! Fixing down 4mm Scale Track... or Reading the O Gauge Gazette that has just flopped through the letterbox...
-
Didn't get the job... looks like I'll have to be treated like scum at the Job Centre again. Hopefully on a more positive note the baseboards should be complete tomorrow.
-
Starting to get annoyed with the lack of progress on my O Gauge Layout - finances being the main cause of irritation. Currently scouring the house & shed for inspiration on a 00 Gauge adventure.
-
Don't despair mate... the cost to ordinary mortals like thee and me of anything significant in 'O' makes progress distinctly ponderous. That's why I haven't sold ALL my OO stock - I might just need it to keep me entertained whilst I lurch precariously through my project ;-)
Keep the faith... it was you're thread which finally gave me the kick I needed to get going.

Never noticed how narrow OO Gauge trackwork actually is - the plan I printed off I honestly thought I got the scaling wrong or that I selected Narrow Gauge trackwork. Gosh.
-
Off for a recruitment evening tonight... I'd rather be debating the colour to spray my O Gauge Diesel Shunter... Never mind - perhaps the world of employment awaits...
-
I keep looking at the boards and track plan and think... are the boards too wide for what I need? Crazy I know.
-
Is looking for a brick wall to bang my head or this EPB on over DCC'ing it.
-
This has never happened before... I have more space then ever before for a Railway... and no ideas...
-
Proud owner of his first O Gauge Locomotive!
-
Just managed to snap a Resin K2 trailer bogie... and it looks like the 'glue' fix wont hold either. Gosh Darn it!!!
-
*Sigh* Why am I devoted to the seemingly most despised Railway Companies in the UK. I suppose someone has to like them.
-
Green with SYP or Blue & Grey... these things are sent to challenge us. Getting the Mojo to get on with modelling again today.
-
Needs to work up enthusiasm for the project... Hornby Platforms - Check! Stock from mutually exclusive eras - Check! Kettle on & Cake sliced - Check! Commence playtime!
-
Did I bother measuring anything at all... Layout doesn't fit under the bed for storage, stock doesn't fit in the stock box, accessories are overflowing their storage... Its a wonder I am working in the right scale/gauge combination this weekend!
-
Musing with my tea this morning if Standard Gauge 7mm scale is were I really want to go... hmmm, O-16.5 is looking intriguing...
-
Apparently I've gone over my broadband usage for the month on day 6... All this time on RMWeb and not modelling... might as well upgrade to unlimited broadband - it'd be rude not to. ;-)
