I know the 'problem' is now sorted but can you still get British Leyland Damask Red? Bit darker than BR red I think but great for Midland stock.

For me (and a few others) the obvious question is - 'how easy will it be to convert to EM/P4?' I really fancy one but if it will be a pain or impossible to do then, sadly, no sale will be forthcoming.

Bang on, chaps! They'll be rocketing off the shelves.😇

A nice little show, very friendly with some good layouts and traders and the bonus of 3 'lectures' on modelling subjects through the day. We were there nearly 6 hours (a lot of it taken up with chatting!). Don't miss it next year!

I'm there on Sunday on the Scalefour Society stand, trying to look intelligent and looking forward to discussing the pro's and con's of P4 modelling.🙂

Possibly try Peter Wood in Doncaster? He had a stand at Doncaster Show and can make virtually anything (he reckons!) . www.menp.co.uk I'm considering ordering some industrial name plates at some time soon.

Thanks Dave. I've cycled along the old embankment many times, down onto the towpath and up Balk Lane but not realised that the staithes were opposite. No trace of them now of course - or any photos?

That's all very poetic for the Wakey Express! Where was the Hartley Bank staithe situated?

The one that Chris sells to power the Judith Edge 48DS. I used it to power my Hornby bodied one.

Where are you in the UK? I'm sure someone would be able to point you in the right direction for a local club or dealer. Model railways aren't all that complicated. If they were I wouldn't be involved............................🙄

I've used 'Klear' for ballasting lately and it works fine, dries clear and is easy to apply with an eye-dropper.

I scrapped mine 🙂 But I've still got a Bentley.

I'm surprised that the motor/gearbox unit actually fits! My Hornby one in P4 with a High Level power unit has a haulage capacity far in excess of the prototype!

I feel really hungry now..................................🙂

But will it be EM or P4'able?
