  1. 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.
  2. Hi Jim, lt's actually foamex pvc board 3mm & 5mm and is great to work and super glued together... Regards
  3. Been keeping busy today and made a good start on the warehouse on ML, still plenty to do yet...
  4. Hi Martin, lt's the only way to go l think as well, no plans drawn then you can't go wrong ? Hahahaha hope to meet up soon Regards
  5. Thanks for that Al, l never have plans, just a rough idea what l want normally comes together in the end, will post more pictures of the build as l go. Ps l see we share the same surname. Regards
  6. Building some kind of factory / warehouse for the background at Moss Lane...having stuck the windows in from behind, then a coat of red primer...
  7. 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...
  8. Decided the walls were a bit too light so gave them a dirty black wash and they seem better, darker anyway...
  9. Thanks for that Barnaby, trying to come up with some sort of warehouse / factory in the back ground.
  10. Hello Buddy, lt was seeing that 33 in grubby dutch livery, that made me think l must get one, so l did looking at the weathering you have done on yours will be my inspiration..
  11. Hi Andy, Thanks l'm really enjoying things at the moment, also thinking warehouses ??
  12. Made some progress on the station building, not sure what l want but have loads of ideas floating around the bonce...
  13. Hi Hal Nail, Poynton garden model railway shop, at 16 quid a box...good and solid...
  14. 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.
  15. Hello Andy, Yes l did, so much better than loads of boxes, l think Peter BB bought them all from me ?
  16. 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
  17. Bought some great stock boxes yesterday, plywood with felt interiors...
  18. 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...
  19. Sounds very interesting Paul. take care Regards
  20. 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...
  21. 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...
  22. Hi Andy, South london area 33s and RTs ?...
  23. Started using the 3mm foamex board l bought a while back for the station building, l don't know where l'm going yet but l have some ideas in my head as per normal..
