  1. has obtained some beer wagons for the brewery. Well, technically, they were sold as cattle wagons, but a quick coat of grey and who'll know the difference?

      You'll never get them past the rivet counters!

      Were some cattle wagons used for the carriage for barrels of beer? I'm sure I read that somewhere....

      Yes they were.

  2. thinks his cunning plan may have fallen through...

      just like all 'cunning plans', doomed to faliure...

  3. has just been fiddling with more Peco N scale wagon kits...

      Don't know if they really count as kits, so much as "plonk body on chassis, clip in wheels and couplings" - almost like modern CKDs...

      That's about as high tech as those kits ever got.

  4. appears to have successfully constructed a PWM controller (or at least the circuitry) for under a tenner.

  5. has been hacking at a Farish chassis with needle files...

  6. has his 140mm radius curves, and is impressed that his shunter actually runs decently around them...

  7. still trying to figure out what N scale UK stock I can fit around scale 1-chain curves... so far got my 04, and blacklisted the 94xx...

  8. has just found out about Tomix and their *tiny* radius N gauge curves... 103mm radius. So much for "I can't fit a roundy-roundy on that shelf - it's only a foot wide!"

  9. is working at the Wonderland Models stall at the Leuchars Airshow tomorrow...

  10. has managed to pick himself up a nice Farish 04 in BR Green. So what if it's not 1930s GWR? It's my train set!
