Hello Andy, Been searching for the electrical pods you see on the third rail down south, as l want to add some into 'ML' also l have tried to repair a badly built 7mm Bulleid MN chassis, but the best thing was to blow it apart and start again, little jobs like that take forever ? Hahahaha.

Hello lan, Yes the boxes are great so much better than carrying loads of different boxes about, you say you fancy a shunting plank? thats what Moss Lane is all about just moving locos and a few wagon around fiddle to fiddle, l did think of a small BLT in steam days, but you get two coaches on and you are full up ? soon scrapped that idea. Hahahaha hopefully see you next Sunday at Marks...

Decided the walls were a bit too light so gave them a dirty black wash and they seem better, darker anyway...
-
Thanks for that Barnaby, trying to come up with some sort of warehouse / factory in the back ground.

Hi lan, Great to see you at Marks on Sunday, and l'm glad you have taken the plunge in DCC, no going back now. -
Nice job on the wagons Ade,

Hello Andy, Yes l did, so much better than loads of boxes, l think Peter BB bought them all from me ?

Hello Barnaby, The big bug l have with O gauge is the packaging (l know we have to have it) but its so big and with it comes the problem of storing it all, l had shelves full of empty wagon boxes so l made a decision to bin the lot, (not the loco boxes) with the new storage boxes l can store up to 12 (short) wagons safely, and the locos l can fit 4 (Class 47) in easily, nice to have some space back. Regards

Thanks Al, lt would be nice if some manufacturer would realise the interest being shown in O gauge now and build some modern type double deckers, oh well l can dream, take care mate, Regards...
-
Sounds very interesting Paul. take care Regards

Hi Paul and thanks for the input, l have got the Southdown version which is great, but my love is double deckers of London transport l now have three RTs 2 red and 1 green, so what l need now is a supplier of 7mm bus tranfers to put them into the mid 70s. Regards...
-
Thanks Al, As l said l met him at Bristol and he showed me the national he was working on and l was not impressed at all, as it was all buckled up and the casting were rough...l have bought 2 more RTs another red one and a Green line one...
-
Hi Andy, South london area 33s and RTs ?...
