  1. Hello Rod, hope you are well, that is me to a tee all day, every day, My Good lady says I was born naturally clumsy Best regards Craig.
  2. Hello Andy, sorry only just caught up with everything POD wise, sorry to hear about your scare .. but good news it was just you being a daft old f#rt over doing it ..... so a warning that you will hopefully heed ? I'll try and ring you over the weekend Take care Craig "Peter Pan" of the Great Welsh Meet Up
  3. Hi Ade, the layout is coming on really well, great news about Lez's job, are you going to celebrate by purchasing more kits ? Best regards Craig.
  4. Quality does cost ..... but it looks good. Or have a bash yourself, this hobby has never been so well supported these days, the range of kits or materials seems almost endless. Best regards Craig.
  5. It’s a shame that Simon’s excellent layout thread pages, are now being clogged up by discussions about the transmission from the MIOG live event !! Stay safe Craig
  6. Now then Mr Morgan, seeing as the Heljan 7mm releases are out in the open ...... are you tempted for a Class 73 Merseyrail De-icer unit ? A nice neat small train. "disclaimer -pictures lifted from the internet for the purposes of reference" Stay safe everyone Craig.
  7. Hello Jonathan, hope all goes well for the results ? Best regards Craig.
  8. Here we go ..... bragging about inches now !!! your 10" looks mighty impressive, makes me feel like my 8" one look inadequate !!!
  9. Skytrex do some, GWR x 2 lengths, and SR x 2 lengths, both types are cast in white metal, with Leg supports, they clean up into decent castings. Or as mentioned before, easy enough to scratch build, from plasticard and plastistruct, or wood. Best regards Craig
  10. Nice work there James, and I do like the way you have got those paints stacked, I’ll be nicking that idea For my workbench Best regards Craig
  11. Thanks Andy, I keep looking in on your project and many other fine layouts builds as well, to keep the juices flowing. Yes it will be the Blue period, with a splash of lingering green, and early 70’s decay. Best regards Craig
  12. A parcels bay would be a good addition Rod, but the pictures you are drooling over, seem to be heading towards Berkshire . May be a new layout project is in order ? The mixed parcels lash up is great Rod
  13. Hello, I am still around, life has got in the way !! We moved into a new house at the end of July, planning has been submitted for a purpose built extension, which will be Mancave territory, space will be some where in region of 24 ‘ x 18’. Though I still hanker to have a garden section as well All modelling items, are safely in storage, pending a suitable temporary modelling space, once some major decorating is done, to keep SWMBO happy !! Please don’t mention Bury FC, that is a very sore subject :-( Best regards Craig
  14. Lovely jubbly Mr M. a lovely unusual subject, very well executed , hope you are keeping safe and well ? Best regards Craig.
  15. This orientation problem is a real pain, when pictures form Oz are uploaded onto a UK forum ... Those chains look smart Peter Best regards Craig.
  16. @mike hughes do you have any ideas on price for the China Clay wagon yet ? Best regards Craig
  17. Thanks Paul, your site is invaluable to many of us modellers, i'll be purchasing a few prints to aid the building of some of the UCV's as flat hoods "1970 modeller", quick question regarding the type of brake rigging on the 1/051's what make was fitted to them ? Thanks in advance Craig.
  18. Hi Paul, thanks, yes is it on another forum, WT, but some members aren’t on there, and vice versa Best regards Craig
  19. Thanks Gents, it seems to be getting nearer regarding info, does anyone on the main differences between the original 013 and the later built 1/051 ? I know the wheels are different, spokes on the 013, and three holes disc on the later 1/051 for starters thanks in advance Craig
  20. Good evening, here is an enquiry as what seems to be the holy grail for 7mm modellers, the elusive China Clay wagon, I am looking to possibly scratch build or kit bash a rake of these in the future, so I am sourcing information in advance. Has anybody built any of these from scratch off drawings etc ? or has anybody kit bashed any Slaters, or Parkside kits to make up a reasonable imitation ? Your input or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance Craig
  21. Hello Wendy, sorry to hear of Peter's passing, my condolences to You, Zoe & Toni. Best regards Craig "from Pwllheli"
  22. Hi Ade, just to echo what many have said before, good luck for Lez on the job front, hope it all turns out ok for you both. Best regards Craig.
