  1. Aaah, looks a good job though, and yes, much cheaper to run. I have a 348 (ready to run Italian model :-) ) and trust me, they're not cheap to run, but great fun :-) !
  2. Nice layout. ..but more importantly. ..is the red 355 Spyder in your avatar yours ?? :-)
  3. Picked up a couple of the vans and a Newspapers BG at Bristol. Not bad..... But.... Brake handles and discs fallen off VAA's, wonky wheel sets on VAA's, bit of the under frame broken off the BG, sprung corridor springing gear bouncing around the inside of the BG........ Not a major problem to rectify...but annoying when you've shelled out the thick end of 400 quid... ! ...and... the icing on the cake.... the fixed brackets that sit around the wheels on the VAA's actually physically foul the wheel sets due to excessive sloppy side play !!! Unbelievable really...have the Heljan engineers not heard of performing tolerance stack analysis during the DFM phase of a product .....?? Again, not too much of a brain stretcher to rectify... But why should we have to when Hornby railroad items for a fiver offer better build quality... This is why there's not a vast amount of Heljan on Courtover Town... At least if we build it...there's only ourselves to blame :-)
