  1. Looks like a very good project, does this mean that the em1 kits will be ready soon,?
  2. I've been wondering about landore when I drive past it, shame it's going to close, my stepfather's brother Bernard used to be a fitter there, and I had the chance of a look around, but for some reason I declined the opportunity!
  3. That looks like some great modelling, I keep looking at the Manchester pullman but, as I'm interested in South Wales railways I keep resisting
  4. Building inspectors can contradict each other so much, you'd think they'd talk to each other, unless you get the same one all job, you can get some conflicting advice.
  5. I was interested but when I checked my stash I found 6 x 120 kits 1 x 119 kits 1 x 114 kit 3 x 108 kits 2 x 128 kits 1 x 129 kit 1 x Derby lightweight kit So I probably have enough!
  6. Look very nice those Ian, I wonder if they were present in South Wales?
  7. Thank you for the link highpeakman, and to you Mike for the info.
  8. Did the junction layout get altered after the station closed then?
  9. Thanks, I've been looking at various locations around the Swansea area, with the intention of eventually making a model of one, and this looks like it could be an interesting option
  10. Been a bit stupid here no doubt, is this junction near Briton ferry station? I've googled it and I keep getting, Briton ferry road station, trying to find some early seventies pictures of the area
  11. I don't suppose that this will become an etch roof panel will it?
  12. Are there many pictures of them in South Wales? This is my favorite area, but most books on the hydraulics are in the west country or London areas, which I can understand, but south wales seems to have been neglected by a lot of photographers.
  13. I can remember working in Ashburton in Derbyshire, where I saw a plumbers van, on which it had the name "Dwayne Pipe"
  14. Penistone Station including the viaduct on the Huddersfield line and a bit of the lines which diverge to Sheffield and Barnsley
  15. Cheers Ivan, I suppose I should just buy some and see myself really!
  16. Does anyone have any experience of these? Looking at the price that lima and Hornby mk2 coaches go for on ebay, these don't look to bad in comparison, especially if you were to buy shawplan etc detailing parts for them. I've found a few threads on them and there seems to be a mixed view, regarding the shape of the tumble home.
  17. A Dapol drewery shunter kit, with branchlines chassis and body detailing kit, wheels and motor for £40
  18. A bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a kitchen car kit or sides, along with power car spares?
  19. Some are built and there is a motor bogie, I couldn't turn it down even though I've a six car triang one, I've been rebuilding, I just need a second kitmaster kitchen car now
  20. A seven car kitmaster blue pull man for £65 not bad I think
  21. I was born in 1979, and so I missed most of the "interesting" railway, so I can only make opinions on pictures, but to me, the best looking locomotives are the class 52 "westerns" and followed by the deltics in green!
  22. I like the a3's with the smoke deflectors, to me they look more powerful than they did without them.
  23. I wish they'd reappear to, I've tried ringing the number but it just rings off. Shame really
