your stock maintenance must be easy. On my railway it was pretty much all cleaning of wheels, with the occasional minute to run trains

I dread having to clean all the Tenshodo spuds on my upcoming LU layout

thats alright then , my track for Belmont Road (it really is going to be called that, the old Uxbridge station was on a "Belmont Road") will probably cost me a fiver

Whereas everything to do with railways is funded by myself i could actually buy all the track instead of Pinza, its a hard descision to make.

Does anyone know of the release date for that? i should be soonish...

Bachmann model?

 

[Gizmogle]

Ummm...Hornby. It's analogue, but it won't be for long. My Dad just randomly bought it off ebay

 

[kettlefan]

if its BR blue it must be quite old, is it? I haven't seen a BR blue hornby 37 for ages in the model press.

 

[Gizmogle]

Yeah, probably. I wouldn't have bought it myself.

That's it... Hornby 37207

And I just found details for it here, it's from 1984 lol.
My dad doesn't bother looking things up before he buys them

:neutral: if it were me, I'd highlight my fathers error, and make fun of him for as long as possible because, well, I can be a b*****d

I got one of them, or something similar, up in the loft which I've had for years.

I've been thinking about getting a DCC kit and starting a proper layout, but I can never be bothered

I've been thinking about starting a proper layout, but I can never be bothered

One day, i'm going to have a Limerick depot layout, with roarers and sevens on the Dublins, and various Sulzer type twos pottering about on local workings. One day that is....
