    Hornby Pullman roof grey? I need to paint some white ones to match the later grey version, any ideas what shade of grey it is?

      Don't tell Boris - he'll just want to come along and wash his hands... ;-)

      Given how long Hornby take these days, some people might actually drop dead before their new model arrives :-O

      oh the possibilities!

    Where has Coachman's Carriage Blog gone?

      It probably declared independence.

      Coach has 'opted out' sadly. His pictures were inspirational.

      mattingleycustom

      'Opted out', you mean he's quit RMweb?, what happened?

  6. mattingleycustom

    On the workbench: A Royal Scot, a Jubilee, a certain LNER 4472 and a pair of GWR Counties. No SR !

    Masking tape removes varnish from expensive coach. That's it, end of tether reached! Stuff modelling I'm going back on the beer

      Pour me one the day I'm having modeling I think I'll join you as the project I'm working on is fighting me back today

      are you using the Tamiya low stick stuff? Its very good, and shouldn't remove anything as long as it's properly dried.

    3. mattingleycustom

      mattingleycustom

      It's Tamiya alright, never had any problem with it before, so I think I'll blame the guy who varnished the coach (not me btw!)

    Will I ever get my P2?

      Wasn't P2 some Masonic Lodge allegedly connected to the Vatican?

  9. mattingleycustom

    What to renumber next?!

    1. gwrrob

      gwrrob

      Something Western perhaps ?

    2. mattingleycustom

      mattingleycustom

      No, no, no, it has to be Southern this time. As it turned out: 34104 Bere Alston, before rebuilding

  10. mattingleycustom

    Just renumbered my SDJR 7F as LMS 13810 and what do Bachmann do?! ... grrrr

    1. gwrrob

      gwrrob

      How long before its released though.

    2. mattingleycustom

      mattingleycustom

      Good point. Mine just needs varnishing ... I'm sure one of 'L's is leaning a bit, but never mind it's for me. They look so much better in LMS livery than boring BR.

  11. mattingleycustom

    Where does the '7F' go on an LMS-liveried SDJR 7F?!

      I am struggling to find a good side view but would guess in front of cabside cutaway. High up.

    2. mattingleycustom

      mattingleycustom

      Thank you. I couldn't find a clear enough photo either, but will go with front of cab cutaway as the Midland 2Ps, 4Fs and Compounds had it in that position.

      mattingleycustom

      I don't know, it's sort of black with LMS on the tender

  15. mattingleycustom

    On the workbench: Hengist and Horsa, the BR6's that never were.
